Shilpa Shetty trolled for misunderstanding George Orwell's book

29th November 2016

Shilpa Shetty, who ruled the Indian Cinema with her charming beauty is now ruling the Indian Television as she is seen as one of the judges on a TV reality show. The actress is often spotted at many events. Recently at an event while speaking to a leading daily Shilpa was asked to comment on the decision of The Council of School Certificate Examination (CISCE) as they decided to include books like 'Harry Potter' in the syllabus of English literature for the students studying in Junior and Middle school.

The daily quoted her comment which reads, "I think having books like 'Lord of the Rings' and 'Harry Potter' as part of the syllabus is a great move because it cultivates imagination and creativity at a young age. I thinks books like Little Women would also encourage respect towards women at a young age. Even Animal Farm should be included as it will teach the little ones to love and care for animals."

Soon after this people started trolling her on Twitter where some of the tweet reads, "The Hunger Games is a great series on Karwa Chauth. #ShilpaShettyReviews."

"Fifty Shades of Grey is an amazing coloring book.Children will love it"#ShilpaShettyReviews."

Shilpa decided to react on this issue as #ShilpaShettyReviews soon started trending. She tweeted on her Twitter handle, "Whilst I admire the writers of LOTR, Harry Potter & Animal Farm I've "NEVER" read these books(@ the cost of soundin even dumber!)Not my kind." She futher tweeted, "So recommending them to kids is out of the question! Obviously some misunderstanding..Don't want to get into it.This too shall pass. 🙏😓."

Basically Gorge Orwell's book 'Animal Farm’ is a dystopian novel which reflects the events leading up to the 'Russian Revolution of 1917' and then to the Stanlist era of The Soviet Union.
