This famous man needs no introduction. One of the biggest
superstars in the country, he has starred in major blockbusters year after
year. Lovingly called 'bhai' by nearly the whole subcontinent, this man is the
founder of the largest or probably one of the largest charities in the country-
'Being Human'. The man is also a convict, and no one can change that. (Bhai
fans, take note.)
The previous week started with the actor getting sentenced to a
five year prison term for an accident that happened thirteen years ago.
Here are the events of the fateful day, 13 years ago.
Here are the events of the fateful day, 13 years ago.
Mr. Famous Guy along with two other people exits a bar after
having had a jolly time. He drives under the influence of alcohol, his car goes
out of control and climbs a sidewalk, killing one, and injuring two other
people.
Now, after 13 years of numerous visits to the court, arguments and rebuttals, the court finally passed a judgment. Mr Famous Guy was convicted and sentenced. Except obviously lobbying. Mr. Famous Guy was granted an interim bail of two days in two hours and two days later, with the submission of a new bail bond, was set free for another two months.
For those who think that this was the worst that could have happened, this is just the beginning. No, there haven't been any advancements in the case yet, and that is precisely the reason why the fans of Bhai are rejoicing.
Outside the court compounds and his apartments these fans were present in large number, anxiously awaiting the ruling from Bombay High Court. One such fan decided to take his own life by swallowing poison as his nerves and love for Bhai overpowered every inch of sense left in the man.

Several thousand others thronged his apartment complex, as a mark of their unmatched love and loyalty to the man, and as the news of an extended bail reached their ears were seen dancing, bursting crackers, congratulating each other and removing their shirts, a La Famous Guy style!
The madness doesn't end here. The film fraternity decided to stand with their beloved NO MATTER WHAT. Not if he killed a person, not if he was drunk driving and had no respect for law. They went ahead and called the sentence too harsh.
The fraternity and the fans fail to recognise and understand the fact that their loved Bhai is a criminal in every sense of the word, a lawbreaker, who started a charity with an ulterior motive of giving peace to his guilty conscience. Justice was served when he was punished and denied when he was allowed and extended bail period and NOT the other way round. Fans and Fraternity, take point!
