Shilpa Shetty's sister speaks out about 'racial comments'

Shamita damns 'uneducated and coarse bullies'

Jade and Shilpa

Shamita Shetty, sister of Bollywood star Shilpa, is infuriated by what's happening to her in the CBB house.

'Shilpa is a very emotional and sensitive girl,' she tells the Ahmedabad Times. 'It saddens us to see her being ill-treated by some.

'It all must have started from the usual girlie bitchiness, leading to insecurity amongst these crude, uneducated and coarse bullies.

'She is being majorly victimised. But Shilpa has conducted herself with great dignity.'

Sunanda Shetty, Shilpa's mum, has also commented, saying she wishes her daughter would stop enduring what she believes is racist abuse.

Housemate Danielle Lloyd, 23 – the model who was stripped of her title of Miss Great Britain – has said on air: 'Shilpa should f**k off home. She can't even speak English'.

'As a person I wouldn't have tolerated (it). I would have walked out,' says Sunanda.
