Celebrities are well known to subscribe to good luck charms. Bollywood actor Salman Khan has a bracelet, which he wears at all times and credits it for protecting him.

Shilpa Shetty wears watches on both her wrists whenever her IPL team plays. Quirky, will you call it, or lucky charm?

Shilpa Shetty is becoming self indulgent. The diva is succumbing to her taste buds more often than before.

We hear, the actress, who is more of a business woman now, has lost her diet discipline of late. Well, it’s not entirely her fault at the first place.

Says our source, ‘Shilpa is known for her strict workout regimen and stricter diet discipline. But, ever since her birthday this month, Shilpa has been eating beyond the permissible quantities. Matters worsened on her mum’s birthday when Shilpa threw her diet chart to winds completely. Now, the actress is worried about being so self indulgent and doesn’t want to put on weight. So, fighting kilos has again become her big concern these days.’

Shilpa has been one of the few heroines who has always maintained her hour glass looks. Let’s hope her curves don’t become victims of her taste buds. Source
