It’s no secret that Shilpa Shetty is one of the most popular Indian celebrities in Britain. No wonder then that UK-based musician Katy Perry, who is in India to perform at the IPL, has insisted that she meets the lady who took her entire country by storm during the Big Brother reality show, a few years ago.

Says a source, “Katy has not met Shilpa ever and she has expressed a desire to catch up with her. She heard and read about Shilpa when she won Big Brother, but has never had a chance to catch up with her. She personally requested that she meets her and spends some time with her.”
