Will Sherlyn Chopra replace Jade Goody in 'Bigg Boss'?

New Delhi, Aug 19 (IANS) With Jade Goody on her way back to Britain from Indian reality show "Bigg Boss" after she was diagnosed with cancer, speculations are rife that item girl Sherlyn Chopra will take her place.

"For Sherlyn to say 'yes' to 'Bigg Boss', she needs a great incentive," her publicist Dale Bhagwagar said in an official release.

"She will agree to be on the show only if she gets what she deserves to be away for a full three months from the promotions of her latest musical success 'Dard-e-Sherlyn'," he added.

Sherlyn was earlier approached for the show, but she was dropped because she had asked Endemol India, the production house, to pay her Rs.30 million for her stay in the "Bigg Boss" house.

She had even asked the production house to allow cameras to be installed in the bathrooms of the house so that she could flaunt her vast collection of colourful bikinis and inner wear while bathing.

To this, Bhagwagar said: "With her characteristic boldness and flamboyance, she is capable of making the Television Rating Points (TRPs) of any TV programme hit the roof."

The publicist, however, made it clear that "Sherlyn won't be interested in the show without the perks."

Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty, who won the "Celebrity Big Brother" in Britain, is hosting the show.
