Reacting to Shilpa Shetty’s win at the British reality show Celebrity Big Brother, noted film maker Mahesh Bhatt sought to calm the media hype saying, it is just a game show and there are much larger issues at hand.

“The media must put things in right perspective. Obviously we are happy that she has won it but after all, it is only a game show that was meant to achieve the producer’s own end,” Bhatt told PTI.

“When your child wins an essay competition, you feel happy about it but that is not the centre of your life,” he said.

The country faces larger issues at hand, Bhatt said adding, media should focus on them.
