Shilpa Shetty is getting ready to star in her first post-'Big Brother' film in Hindi (there was a film or two that were released after the contest, but those were films that she had starred in before participating in the TV show).

This one is going to be directed by Sunny Deol. Shilpa is mighty pleased that she has got the offer to star in a film that is going to be directed by one of her favorite co-stars. She had already worked with Sunny in three films.

What is making her more happy is the fact that a poll was conducted by a website to pick up the most favorite actress to play the role of the Bond Girl in the new James Bond film. Shilpa has topped the polls. 'Bond 22' will most likely be the name of the film and Daniel Craig will continue to play the lead role this time.

Though an intense (and indirect) campaign is on to bring Shilpa in for the role, the makers of the new Bond film haven't quite made their minds up yet.
