Joining the likes of Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan, bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty has also turned producer "to make good commercial cinema with stories which she would aspire to watch".

"It is wrong to say that I am launching my home production because my career is going nowhere. Of the two films I plan to produce every year, I may not fit into any of the characters, " Shilpa told.

Shilpa said her experience as an actress will come handy to make her home banner, an established one in the industry.

"If you have planned your moves, nothing is difficult. I have to live up to my own expectations, " she added.

Shilpa said her first film, an action comedy, under her banner S2 Global productions to be directed by Manish Jha was in advanced stage of scripting and will be launched later this year.

Shilpa said she had not planned to further her career in UK after "Big Brother" win. "I had never thought I would win, " she added.

"I was offered to host TV shows, films and television serials in Britain. But, I could not devote my full time there because of my commitments in Mumbai. But, the media wrote that no good offers were coming my way.

Surely, I was not expected to give a list of offers which I was unable to take up because of my commitments in the UK, " she added.

According to Shilpa, she would prefer to be a first class citizen of India and work here rather than a struggler overseas.
