SHILPA PRICES HERSELF OUT OF FILM ROLE

Bollywood star SHILPA SHETTY has been dropped from her first English film after making high pay demands.

SHILPA SHETTY

The actress, 32, was due to be the leading role in the romantic comedy film Quick, Slip Me A Bride but arguments about money have forced them to find another leading star.

Producer of the $8 million (GBP4 million) film, Renu Patel says, "Shilpa agreed to film with us. Now we have been forced to go ahead without her because she wanted GBP350,000 and insisted half of this had to be paid before she even shot any scene.

"To make things worse, she then tried to insist we delayed the film until next summer to give her time to pursue a music project instead.

"It would have made Shetty a lead in her first British-made film and given her the chance to scotch the idea she is merely a failing Bollywood actress."
