Shilpa Get Kissed

New Delhi: She literally took the world by storm following her win in the UK reality show Celebrity Big Brother, and has been in the news for reasons more than one ever since. From talking about India's vastness and diversity to highlighting the increasing problem of HIV/AIDS in India, a cause that she is closely associated with, Shilpa Shetty has done it all.
However this time, the actress may receive less of bouquets for talking about HIV/AIDS, and get more brickbats for being kissed by Hollywood actor and AIDS activists Richard Gere.
At a function, held as a part of the ongoing Seena Taan Ke campaign by the Truckers Corporation of India Foundation (India's largest surface transport organisation) to reduce unsafe sexual practices among the trucking community, Gere hugged and kissed Shilpa during the event Delhi on Sunday.
The act by Gere and Shilpa hasn’t gone down well with most of the Indian audience, and they demand an apology from both the actors.
Also present on the show was Bollywood actor Sunny Deol, who joined hands with Gere and Shilpa to instill in truckers a sense of pride in their work, raise their self-esteem and encouraged them to adopt healthy behaviour.
