Up Shetty creek without a mobile

Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty has been swamped with hundreds of calls after a fan sent out her mobile number in a mass email.

The actress is currently touring Britain with the musical Miss Bollywood and is extremely perturbed by the constant calls and texts, said her publicist Dale Bhagwagar to Sky News.

"Some want to date her, some want to just listen to her voice, some want to inquire if her musical Miss Bollywood is doing fine," he said to Sky News.

"And some call just to check if they are speaking to the real Shilpa Shetty."

He told Sky News that the actress had stopped using the number in question.

According to the DNA newspaper in India, Shetty has filed a police complaint asking officers to trace fan Jeetu Sethi, who allegedly illegally distributed the private mobile number.

Mumbai police are investigating the incident, said a senior officer to DNA.

He said the fan could face a six-month jail term for harassment and illegally using the internet to publicise a private phone number.

A well-known actress in India, Shetty became an international star after her appearance on the British reality show Celebrity Big Brother.
