Shilpa Shetty (tulu: ಶಿಲ್ಪ ಶೆಟ್ಟಿ) (Tamil Nadu, 8 de junio de 1975) actriz y modelo india nominada cuatro veces a los Filmfare Award. Desde su debut con Baazigar (1993), ha aparecido en más de 50 películas, entre ellas Aag, su primer papel protagonista. Actualmente reside en Mumbai, India. Su hermana Shamita Shetty también es una actriz del llamado Bollywood.
Further court hearings cast doubt on the veracity of the evidence tapes; Shetty’s defence claimed that it was Agarwal who recorded the telephone calls rather than the police, and that the possibility of dubbing or manipulation could not be ruled out. 
Another strange twist occurred when the Shettys’ driver, Dilip Pashekhar, was arrested. On Nov 5 it was reported that Surendra and Sunanda Shetty, among three others, were chargesheeted and which paved the way for a trial commencement in a local court.
Obscenity charges: In April 2006, a Madurai court issued non-bailable warrants against Shetty and Reema Sen for “posing in an obscene manner” in photographs published by a Tamil newspaper. 
Court hearings revealed that, despite Shetty’s denials, print-outs of cellular phone records proved that contact between Shetty and the gang had taken place. On June 20 Surendra Shetty was formally arrested after surrendering to the police, later telling news reporters that the entire issue was designed to malign him and his family. When asked about the underworld’s involvement, Shetty said “I don’t know, I talked to them only after they called up and said they were agents of Agarwal.”Agarwal claimed that the full sum had been paid in advance, but he had no knowledge of how much had been paid to Shilpa. Surendra Shetty was refused bail by a Mumbai court although bail was granted to Sunanda, as she had been travelling abroad at the time the warrant was issued. The police further claimed to possess a record of a telephone call between Shilpa’s parents and Pankaj Agarwal, the owner of Praful Sarees. This was denied by the parents and the tape was claimed to have been “manipulated”.
In May 2003 a controversy erupted over alleged links between Shetty’s parents and the Indian underworld. The Surat police issued arrest warrants against her parents on charges of extortion. Police Commissioner of Surat, D.K. Gupta, told the media that the owners of Praful Sarees had lodged complaints with them after claiming to receive threatening telephone calls from Mumbai-based underworld figures asking for money on behalf of the Shettys. The dispute between the two parties related to a 1998 modelling assignment where Shilpa endorsed Praful Sarees and had only been paid Rs. 50 lakhs (over $113,000) out of a contractually-agreed 3 crores ($679,000).
Sunanda Shetty held a press conference on June 5 where she denied that the family had underworld connections and that the whole fracas was a “plot to tarnish the image of my daughter.” She further said that she was “definitely innocent” of the charges and was falsely implicated by Agarwal after he had failed to fully reimburse Shilpa for her work. On June 13 it was reported that Surendra had confessed to establishing contact with associates of Fazl-ur-Rehman, leader of the Mumbai gang, after being interrogated by police. A contradictory story surfaced that, although the Shettys’ driver, Dilip Pashekar, admitted to introducing Surendra with Rehman’s associates, Surendra continued to deny that any links were forged. A senior police official confirmed that Surendra had “vehemently denied” his links even though he and Pashekar were interrogated side by side. Shetty’s lawyer later clarified that the reports of confessing to mafia links were false.
