Whether Shilpa approached Congress or is it the other way round, it is still not known. Repeated calls to Nirupam failed to evoke a response. Adds the source, "After Shilpa won Bigg Boss 11, she got several offers for shows but she doesn't want to do anything frivolous. What has attracted her to politics might be her desire to do something for the people."

It remains to be seen if Shilpa, who has a big fan following in Maharashtra, is made to contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha polls,
