Shilpa to become a yoga teacher
Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty Kundra will turn yoga teacher for contestants of the controversial reality show Bigg Boss 13 in a forthcoming episode.
In a promo clip, Shilpa is seen entering the Bigg Boss house and teaching the housemates poses to relax their mind, body and souls. However, the contestants found it difficult to perform some of the yoga positions.
In another video clip, Shilpa, who has hosted the second season of the Colors show, said that she watches it closely.
She said that she has seen a lot of contestants but never seen such an entertaining lot. She then asked the contestants about their fondest memories in the show.
‘I have a lot of memories of my dad (Surinder Kapoor) but overall we, including our neighbours in Chembur, where we were born and brought up, remember him as a warm-hearted and jovial man. Although as a film producer, he went through a tough time at one point in his career but I never saw him dejected or bitter. He fought all crises with a smile and that is a quality all of us brothers have imbibed.’

Actor Taapsee Pannu was one of the early birds to cast her vote in Delhi during Assembly elections. But soon her voting right was being questioned on social media because she lives in Mumbai. She had a befitting reply: “You can take a girl out of Delhi but you can not take Delhi out of this girl.”
She took to Twitter to share her family photo flaunting their inked fingers and captioned it: “Pannu Parivaar' has voted. Have you #VoteDelhi #EveryVoteCounts.”
