Actress Shilpa Shetty has been trolled for telling a national daily that including books like "Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter as part of the school syllabus" is a great idea and that, on similar lines, 'Animal Farm' and 'Little Women' could be included to teach children about animal-caring and respecting women.

Whether or not the Bollywood yesteryear actress expected a slew of jokes for talking so casually, the hashtag #ShilpaShettyReviews has been floated. "Fifty Shades Of Grey' is an amazing colouring book. Children will love it," @a_bit_too_much tweeted. "So glad Spielberg made E.T. Don't think anyone has made a movie about a newspaper," @ShivAroor tweeted. "Children should read 'A Tale Of Two Cities', so they can learn geography," @MinstrelOfSound tweeted.

"Life of Pi is a great maths book about how the length of 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884 is shortened to 3.14159," @khaajasaaein tweeted. "Mein Kampf is a good book to learn about struggle at a young age," @ecophilo tweeted. "Just watched Independence Day: Resurgence. Guy who played Nehru was brilliant," another witty repartee went.
