Bloghopper, But I bet that won’t get played up in the media as much as her win. Saw it on the front pages of almost all national dailies. Damn! we sure are short of real news.

Confused, probably not much directly from the show but the publicity she received is priceless. For a change people forgot about Abhishek-Aishwarya.

Chetan, I bet she was practicing that expression for a long time.

A banana republic. Yes, that’s a ROTFL material :).

I watched the much highlighted BBC’s snippet where Ms flopstar Shetty went ala Miss World expression upon being announced the winner, or something to that effect. And it was the right moment to turn off the tube.

Pat,

Just checked-it’s around 9 million INR. Not much considering Rahul Roy got like 50 lakhs for willing Big Boss.

But of course, publicity has been priceless for her.

She saying “making India proud” should have as much importance as the racial row on big brother.

Confused, honestly I am not sure. But if she was paid, Â£300,000 for her appearance then I am assuming the prize money was much more and in addition to that. Times 86 for a rupee conversion. And she gets to say she ‘made her country proud’.

How much has she won?

And as you said, make India proud? Gosh!
