There is no denying that Shilpa Shetty has a lot of admirers. When she spoke with readers on the Rediff Chat, one persistent question was: Will you marry me?
The sizzling actress handled the proposals with panache, a hearty laugh, and sometimes with the counter question: How tall are you?
For those who missed the chat, here's the first part of the transcript.

vishu : hi shilpa when r u getting married
Shilpa Shetty : I'm glad you asked this question. It's the same question that my parents ask me, and I haven't been able to answer them. A lot of my interviews have been misconstrued, making it looks like I'm bridegroom-hunting, but that's not the case! I'm just setting the record straight. The day it happens, you'll be the first to know. It'll be on rediff!

Shilpa Shetty : every day is a learning lesson, and matured with every experience. I live my life with the philosophy of 'everything happens for the best'.

Shilpa Shetty : thank you, will do.
AngelOfTruth : Shilpa, you're very pretty. There's something I always wanted to ask you. The Jain brothers of Venus are notorious for their casting couch. How was your experience being launched by them in 'Baazigar'?
Shilpa Shetty : Didn't need to answer this question. But I liked your login name, so it was the most amazing experience. The casting couch exists if you come across it and succumb to it. I've been lucky, haven't faced either. The Jain brothers are the most decent people, and I can vouch for that. My association with them has been since the last 12 years, with 4 films down - I have no complaints! :)
CHOPRA : Hi shilpa. I am rakesh. 28 years old. 5'11". will u marry me.
Shilpa Shetty : I thought this was a chat and not a swayamvar! I feel likle I've logged into a marriage.com!
ashwin : shilpa who is your favourite co-stars
Shilpa Shetty : male or female?
ns : Hi Shilpa, Iam Suresh, 27 years old, You seem to me good looking with perfect figure. what's the secrect behind it?
Shilpa Shetty : I have no contribution in that. Good genes! :) And constant reinvention.
Farrokh : what does acting mean to you
Shilpa Shetty : for starters, considering I had no formal training or anyone from the industry, it means it was destiny. Other than that, the feeling of being in front of the camera is truly unfathomable. Gives me a great high.
Don't miss the second part of the chat tommorow!
