Shilpa Shetty to marry before the year is out
Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty is due to tie the knot with her businessman boyfriend, Raj Kundra, before the year is out. The stunning actress revealed in an interview recently that she would like to marry soon, and it seems she won’t have to wait too long for that particular wish to come true.
The stunning actress struck up a professional partnership with the London based businessman Raj after appearing on Celebrity Big Brother. Her role on the reality show sparked controversy after fellow contestant, Jade Goodey, made racist remarks to Shilpa which were broadcast live to the nation. The incident caused widespread upset causing even the Prime Minister to comment on the situation.
The power couple own a mighty £10 million stake in the Rajasthan Royals Twenty20 Cricket Team and have recently acquired a food company. Their professional relationship blossomed into something more personal and now the pair are due to wed in a lavish ceremony in London.
The news of the impending nuptials came to light after Shilpa’s father, Surendra Shetty, made an application to an Indian court to have his passport given back, stating his daughter’s wedding as the reason for the his overseas travel. Mr Shetty’s passport was confiscated in 2006 after he threatened a business associate whom he claimed, owed money to his daughter. Since then, Shilpa’s parents must make an appeal to the court before they are allowed to travel outside of the country.
The official court papers state that the wedding is due to take place sometime between September and December leaving everyone guessing to the exact date of the ceremony.
