Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty has denied reports she had an affair with Indian director Anubhav Sunha.
The director's wife, Ratna claims the beauty is the reason for the break-up of their 12 year marriage.
However, Shetty insists: "We are just close friends.
"It's all been extremely embarrassing. I'm keeping my silence because he's going through a bad marriage.
"People think my life is so glamorous. I am reported to be going out with different men, but the truth is I've had two dates in eight months.
"I'm always working. It's pretty boring being Shilpa Shetty!"
