Message: Emoticon Listing HTML Help	[quote] Aishwarya Rai belongs to the "Bunt" community from South Karnataka. She's South Indian and Hindu, but her sub-caste or whatever you call it, is "Bunt". A lot of Bunts are Shettys, i.e. Sunil and Shilpa both belong to the same community as Aish. It's like you can have a national race (Indian), a religious one (Hindu) and a smaller regional sub-division one depending on which part of the country you hail from (i.e. Gujarat, Bengal, Punjab, etc). Any clearer?? ~SQ~ [/quote]
