A law firm has sued Indian actress Shilpa Shetty's firm for failing to pay a bill of 13,000 pounds.

The Celebrity Big Brother winner's Cine Entertainment had consulted Carter Ruck after the racial row that made her famous, reports the Sun.

The news comes after reports that the actress has been dropped from Max Clifford's client list due to repeated conflicts with the firm's employees.

Security company CTR Services has also claimed that the 32-year-old Bollywood star owed them a sum of 3,000 pounds.

However, Shetty's rep Farnath Hussain said that the company is in ‘the process' of paying off the debts.
