LONDON: Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty has said that the response to her debut musical 'Miss Bollywood' has been "fantastic" and tickets for the final show at the Royal Albert Hall here on December 12 has almost been sold out.

"It is truly my privilege and a great platform to showcase India's culture," Shetty told newsmen last night.

In the musical, Shilpa Shetty leads a performing group of over 40 leading dancers from Bollywood and beyond.

Miss Bollywood is set against the backdrop of London as the city prepares for the 2012 Olympics. It follows the story of 'Maya' -- performed by Shilpa Shetty -- a classically trained dancer and choreographer who recently arrived from India to set up a dance academy in a soon to be demolished East London building.

Maya soon finds herself thrust into the limelight, where she must either sink or swim. Her tribulations include the unwanted attentions of a famous but predatory choreographer and a jealous diva.

It is a concoction of riveting dance sequences, showcasing a combination of eclectic dance forms taken from the east and west of India, with Shilpa Shetty re-capturing on stage some of Bollywood's greatest hit songs over the past 40 years.
