As another sign of the increasingly cordial relations between India and China, Shilpa Shetty has signed up for a Chinese movie Desire, opposite Chinese actor Xia Yu, best known for his role as Wu Lien in the wonderful Naomi Watts movie The Painted Veil.
While fans are waiting for that film, the award winning actress will next be seen in a sexy item song – Shut Up and Bounce – in Dostana.
Meanwhile, Shilpa has been explaining why she continues to live in Mumbai with her parents and sister even though her boyfriend Raj Kundra lives in London: I was born and brought up in Mumbai, or Bombay as it used to be known, so it’s very much my comfort zone,” she says, “All my friends, relatives and colleagues hail from there and whenever I arrive in the city I know it is my home – I immediately feel comfortable and wanted.”
Shilpa recently hurt her wrist whilst doing some preliminary work on a new multi-star action film and has been seen walking around strapped up: “I think it’s because of wear and tear due to weight training or it could also be because of the cartwheels that I was practicing for the film,” she says, “My doctor has asked me to go easy for at least three months so I can’t shoot for the film or the moment.”
