Singer and actor Ali Zafar is now an established Bollywood star. This is the reason that he was recently in France with a Bollywood contingent to take part in the Cannes Film Festival. While there he also visited a perfume factory in Grasse, the perfume capital of the world. He found it opportune to create his own perfume and did so quite successfully; it is something that visitors to that part of the globe usually do. They create their own scents and present them to their loved ones.

So what next Ali Z? Your own line of lawn?
