Shilpa Shetty unlikely to join BJP

View Shilpa Shetty - Picture GalleryFilm actor Shilpa Shetty, who made headlines after winning the British TV reality show "Celebrity Big Brother" this week, is unlikely to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

On Tuesday, BJP MP from Gurdaspur, film actor Vinod Khanna had announced in Chandigarh "in all seriousness'' that Shilpa Shetty, after her highly acclaimed `Big Brother' win, was going to join the BJP.

But on wednesday, when BJP spokesman Ravi Shankar Prasad was asked, he feigned total ignorance about it.

Insiders said Shilpa Shetty had turned down the proposal made in all earnestness by Vinod Khanna. But Prasad had nothing to say when asked whether Vinod Khanna had consulted Shilpa and the BJP before making the announcement.
