"L'Oreal Colour Riche Star Secrets," global cosmetics as retailed in Norway. Starring Bollywood star Aishwarya Rai, plus Penelope Cruz, Eva Longoria and Laetitia Casta. Guess which secret star gets secret packages in her house mail, crammed with electronic goods from Holland and secret hefty sums in European cash?

Might well be each of 'em as far as I know: but in India, such goings-on are news.

MONEY MESS: Aishwarya told Customs authorities that the package may have been sent to frame her.

Mumbai: Aishwarya Rai has landed in yet another controversy. A parcel containing 23,000 euros (Rs 14 lakh) has got Aishwarya under the scanner of the customs department.

"A parcel with Rai's name mentioned on it as the receiver was sent to her residence. The packet contained electronic items that were declared to the custom authorities but also contained a small packet filled with currency note carefully tucked between other items.

"There were electronic goods like a DVD player, Nokia phone and other electronics which were declared. All that was fine but the packet containing the amounting was hidden between the goods. That is a major cause of concern," Western Zone Commissioner, Customs department AK Prasad said.

However Miss Rai can breathe easy for some time as no case has been filed against her so far but it seems she will have to fit in a meeting with the customs department in her busy schedule possibly within the next two weeks.

"Often described as the most beautiful woman in the world, Bollywood starlet Rai said that Color Riche Star Secrets Taffeta Caresse is her favourite lipstick shade because its soft and tender colour harmonises with her complexion."
