Shilpa saves film

Actress Shilpa Shetty may not be in your face in India, but in the UK the Shilpa fever still soars. And it is this Brit popularity that brought to the fore the resurrection of a film – Humsaaya: The Shadow - that was shelved a long time ago. It starred Shilpa and Dino Morea.

But then there was a problem between the producers, they had a fallout and the project was shelved. However, with Shilpa's Big Brother win, a UK production house has shown interest in the project, and in all probability the film will come back on floors.

Director Kawal Sharma informs us, "Shilpa, when she heard the script for the first time ever, was so excited that she reduced her fees for us. It's great that a production house has shown interest in my project. However, their approaching us is just the initial phase, let's see how it all turns out," says an excited Sharma, who is keeping his fingers crossed.
