it's not just fundamentalist Muslims and Christians that are very silly!

CELEBRITY Big Brother winner SHILPA SHETTY has been arrested in India over her infamous clinch with RICHARD GERE.

The actress broke down in tears when stopped at Mumbai Airport, as she headed off to the Miss Bollywood musical in Berlin.

Shilpa, 32, said: "I can understand something like this if I'd committed a criminal offence.

"But what was my offence, when I'm just an actor, going to perform a musical on foreign land."

Pretty Woman actor Richard, 58, caused uproar in India when he grabbed the Bollywood sweetheart and kissed her several times on the cheek at an Aids-awareness event earlier this year.

Crowds burned posters of the pair and hard-line Hindus claimed that they had violated the country's anti-obscenity laws.

Shetty was held at Mumbai Airport by immigration officials who had no record of a Supreme Court ruling which overturned a ban on her leaving the country.

They said she was still wanted for obscenity charges over the kiss.

Shilpa was only allowed today to join the musical after prolonged questioning.

Probably more than a grain of truth in that. I don't think it's peoples religion that is ever a problem. It's when they try and impose rules on others. Faith in itself is fine.

True to be quite honest people use religon as an excuse they would probably be full of **** without it.

Well we'd have more political dictatorships and less religious ones. They use the same tricks, cult of personality, something larger to believe in etc.

I agree.

Hmmm though if we got more strict they might raise the alcohol buying age from 18 to 21. Which would mean that i would have to wait 4 years instead of 1 to buy a legal drink.

Well anyway there goes my Hindu escape clause. "Hey not all religous people are bad look at the hindus." Now im just down to Buddhists

Damn, I thought we had finally gotten rid of these Bollywood threads. Now they come back with the "bad publicity is good publicity" kind of news.
