Rabbi takes aim at Portman for Indian princess portrayal

Natalie Portman has been dealt a bitter blow just in time for tomorrow's Jewish holy day Yom Kippur - a leading US Rabbi has condemned her portrayal of an Indian princess in a new video.

The 'Star Wars' actress portrays Princess Carmensita Saplingita in ex-boyfriend Devendra Banhart's new promo for Carmensita - a move that has already upset leading Hindu scholars, who have called for her to publicly apologise for mocking their religion.
