Shilpa Shetty will host a party in Mumbai for UK hottie Elizabeth Hurley on May 17.
The British model-actress is currently in India to meet her good friend Shane Warne, who is captaining Shilpa's IPL team Rajasthan Royals. Liz goes back to London in a week's time but will return in time for RR's important match in Mumbai on May 17.
Shilpa hasn't been able to meet her at all.
Shilpa Shetty had planned to host a party for Liz in Jaipur but had to cancel it because of a severe pain in her neck as reported 'A pain in the neck' (Hitlist, April 26).
The actress has been laid in bed with severe spondylosis and back spasms for more than 10 days now.
Stuck at home
Says a source, "She had a bad attack while travelling to Jaipur for a Rajasthan Royals match. When she returned, she couldn't get up or visit any RR matches after that.
To make matters worse, a muscular back spasm made it almost impossible for her to move out of her home much. "
"Shilpa and Raj plan to throw a party for Liz at their bungalow in Juhu. A lavish dinner is being planned but it will be a simple, intimate affair as Shilpa will be still recuperating from her illness.
She has been advised another week of bedrest but has already starting planning for the party. "
Hurley, who joined Warne and RR during their Bangalore game on Tuesday, has bonded well with the owners and the team.
Says a source, "After Liz landed, she spent a couple of hours with Shane before he headed for practice and team meetings.
He wrapped up early and joined her... they had lots to catch up on, given that they hadn't seen each other for almost a month. "
