When Jermaine Jackson was a housemate with Shilpa Shetty on Celebrity Big Brother, the British reality show, it was he who gave Shilpa a lot of moral support when she faced rude comments by Jade Goody. So when Shilpa got to know that Jermaine wanted to visit the Taj Mahal, she decided to arrange a visit for him. “I’m happy that Jermaine could come to India. He and I share a great bond, and I wanted to make this tour a memorable one for him.
What can be better than the Taj Mahal to make it special?” said Shilpa. The actress and Jermaine went from to Agra from Mumbai by chartered flight on Monday.
From their hotel, they went in two buggies to the monument, where they were frisked like regular tourists. Jermaine was very impressed, and kept repeating, “Wow! So beautiful!” He was there with his wife, Halima Rashid, who’s of Afghani origin. She spoke to Shilpa in Hindi occasionally as they went around. Shilpa’s fiancé Raj Kundra, who was also there, kept clicking Shilpa’s pictures, and Jermaine exclaimed, “My wife deserves to have a Taj Mahal built for her – but she has to die first!”
After spending about two hours at the Taj, the four of them left for their hotel. From Agra, they proceeded to Jaipur .
