Bipasha Basu detained at Mumbai airport, pays tax

After Minissha Lamba, it was Bollywood actor Bipasa Basu who was detained at the Mumbai International Airport on Thursday for not declaring jewellery she was carrying.
She had arrived from London on a British Airways flight.

She had to pay Rs 10,000 as tax for the gold and other jewellery she was carrying and let off.

"Everything is okay. People are doing their job," said Bipasha, speaking to reporters later.

She said she was let off in 20 minutes after paying the tax.

She even praised the customs for doing a dynamic and credible job.

Actor Minissha Lamba was detained for several hours by custom officials at the same airport while she was returning from the Cannes festival for jewellery not declared.
