Shilpa Shetty has low blood pressure

At the launch of her yoga DVD on a broadband site, Shilpa was candid enough to admit that she has low blood pressure and it is yoga which keeps her fit and healthy.

"I'm not doing this for money. I have made enough money by now. And if I wanted to make money, I would have not sold this DVD for such a cheap rate to Shemaroo. This is a DVD for the youth so they can keep fit and lead a healthy life," said Shilpa.

She further added that she was in no way competing with Baba Ramdev as his techniques were different from what she practices.

She cited Rekha as one of her mentors from Bollywood. "She practiced yoga much before anyone did and the result is what Rekha is today is thanks to her belief in yoga," she added.

Meanwhile, Shilpa says she has turned down a lot of international projects as she wants to focus more on Hindi films.

"I have left a lot of international projects to come back to Hindi films. Someone told me I was already out of sight and I did not want to be out of mind too. I want a good end product - a good Hindi film made in India," said Shilpa on the sidelines of an event here Wednesday.

Shilpa also said she has not completely dropped the idea of working in the West.

"If the prospects are lucrative enough in the West, I'll definitely go there. I have an international project, but it is still in the process of scripting," informed the actress.

Recollecting her win on Britain's reality show "Celebrity Big Brother", she said: "I think 'Big Brother' has been a boon in disguise for not only me but many Asians living abroad. I'm happy with whatever happened on the show. At least, it has changed the perception for Indians living abroad."

Shilpa refrained from making any comments on the rumours of her hosting the second season of "Big Boss", the Indian version of British "Big Brother".

"When any such thing happens, the media will be informed."

Shilpa's next project includes "The Man" with Sunny Deol in which she would be seen playing the violin for the first time on-screen. Shilpa, who took violin lessons for her role, quipped: "Violin is the single most difficult instrument to play. I am still nursing a bad neck and I do 'bhujangasan' (yoga) everyday to get rid of the pain."

Apart from working in films, she will concentrate on her company S2 Global Productions. She has roped in Manish Jha of "Matrubhoomi" fame to direct her first home production.

She will also be seen sharing the stage with the Bachchan's at their ongoing 'Unforgettable' tour in London on August 23-24 at the prestigious 02 Arena, earlier known as the Millennium Dome.
