Shilpa Shetty is used to attention. She's one of India's greatest Bollywood movie stars. But she refuses to get used to this.
The 43-year-old actor was travelling from Sydney to Melbourne when she encountered an issue with her luggage.
So she posted an open note to Qantas on social media: 'This should get your attention! Travelling from Sydney to Melbourne and at the check in counter met a grumpy #Mel (that's her name) who decided it was "OK" to speak curtly to "US" (Brown people!!) travelling together."
Shetty, one of Bollywood's highest profile and most photographed stars, says an employee deemed her "half-empty" duffel bag too large for the cabin's overhead storage.
So she was sent back to the counter.
