A fairyland glitzy and fun event marked the launch of the 'Lux Provocateur' in the city today at the hands of Bollywood's reigning queen, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Lux Provocateur is a seductive bathing bar with a bold fragrance that reminds one of black roses and violets!
The black, fragrant soap, encased in bold and shiny black met its ideal match in Lux Ambassador, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan where the tantalising aroma of the unusual black bars complemented the mysterious and remote beauty of Aishwarya. Launching the 'Lux Provocateur', Aishwarya said that the black soap bar was reminiscent of a bygone era of delicate, elusive scents, and women who seductively commanded attention by their mystery.
Constructed on a 'Fairyland' theme, the launch was redolent with the fragrance of black roses and violets seeped into the airy setting even as India's first black soap took guests by surprise. Even the dance recital by Sandeep Soparkar and Jesse Randhawa could not attract attention away from this.
Speaking on the occasion, HUL Marketing Manager for Skincare Products Mr. Srikanth Srinivasamadhavan said, "Lux has always focused on providing something unique to its consumers. The launch of 'Lux Provocateur' is another leap in that direction. Provocateur is a special creation, a product that calls for attention by its uniqueness in content, fragrance and colour."

Fardeen Khan surely must have felt relieved after judge P.N.Deshmukh of a special sessions court said that the actor would be facing charges only for attempting to buy 1 gm of cocaine, which comes under the category of âsmall quantityâ. So, even if he is found guilty he stands to spend only a maximum of six months in jail.
The case dates back to the year 2001 when the actor was caught with 9gms of cocaine in Mumbaiâs suburb Juhu. Fardeen was then booked under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and sent to custody. He however, was granted bail later and the case has been awaiting trial in the sessions court ever since.
In the recent chain of events, it appears that the actor has appealed that he was merely attempting to buy 1 gm of cocaine and hence be discharged from criminal prosecution. His plea for complete discharge has been rejected and the actor will still have to stand trial for whatever âsmallâ charge on the next session scheduled for Feb 8. The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) doesnât seem too pleased with this concession given to the actor and said that it will appeal against the sessions court order in the High Court.
