Celebrity Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty is reported to have turned down a deal worth almost £75,000 from Hello magazine for exclusive rights to cover her wedding.
The Bollywood star married British-based businessman Raj Kundra at a lavish ceremony in Khandala, south-east of Mumbai, but shunned the chance to follow in the footsteps of the Rooneys and Katie Price and Peter Andre by cashing in on her big day.
A source told Indian daily Mid-Day that Shilpa rejected the deal because she was uncomfortable with some of the conditions.
The source said: "One of the clauses in the contract offered by the international magazine was that no other photographers would be allowed at the event.
“Also they didn’t want any of the guests to carry their cell phones in case someone leaked the pictures to other media. Shilpa was not comfortable with both these conditions.”
The 34-year-old actress did not want her guests to be frisked or their cell phones taken away, the source said, adding: “She is not looking to make money from this wedding. It is a sacred and a beautiful occasion for her, and she doesn’t want any bad energy around.”
