Bollywood star voices racism fear



LONDON, England (CNN) -- Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty has spoken for the first time of her fears that she is the victim of racism in the "Celebrity Big Brother" house.

Shetty, 31, has been repeatedly reduced to tears during the show by fellow female contestants who have mocked her cooking and her accent, and have called her a "dog."

One contestant said Indians were thin because they undercooked their food.

After footage of another row was broadcast on Wednesday night, one contestant told Shetty: "I don't think there's anything racist in it." Shetty replied: "It is, I'm telling you."
