Shilpa’s knowledge about books is astonishing and Twitter can’t get enough!

Shilpa Shetty was asked about her opinion on famous books being a part of the ICSE syllabus by a newspaper and Twitter lost its cool in no time. As the Council of School Certificate Examination (CISCE) decided to include ‘Harry Potter’ series in the English Literature syllabus for junior and middle school students, the actress said, “I think having books like the ‘Lord of the Rings’ and ‘Harry Potter’ as part of the syllabus is a great move because it cultivates imagination and creativity at a young age. I think books like ‘Little Women’ would also encourage respect towards women at a young age. Even ‘Animal Farm’ should be included as it will teach the little ones to love and care for animals.”

Rather than being a book on animal welfare, the dystopian 1945 George Orwell novel (Animal Farm) is a satire against Stalin, with strong political undercurrents that reflect the author’s criticism of the leader of the Soviet Union.

And predictably, Twitter had a laugh riot with this, putting hundreds of virtual titles on the book shelf with #ShilpaShettyReviews. Here are our favourites.
