The birth of Aishwarya Rai's daughter last week made front page headlines all over the world. Aishwarya isn't just India's biggest star, she's an internationally admired actress, which is why it's unsurprising that international publications are eager to get their hands on the first-ever photo of Aishwarya and Abhishek's baby.
What is surprising is the amount of money being offered for the privilege.
Americans are all too familiar with these glossy magazine baby pictures. A smiling celebrity, often with her husband or boyfriend, holding her newborn in a sweet pose as a (usually pink) headline declares: "See the very first pictures of the baby!"
Celebrities leverage these photo shoots for big paychecks, often upwards of a million dollars. Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears, and Kourtney Kardashian have all done big time covers with their children. Jessica Simpson is shopping around baby picture deals these days, with a steep asking price.

Aishwarya Rai is just as big a celebrity as any of these women (even bigger if you ask anyone outside the United States). It seems a given that should she be willing to pose with Beti B for a magazine, she would be raking in big bucks.
So what's the price tag for Aishwarya Rai baby photos?
A shocking $30,000! And that's the upper range!
