Reel Life Hero & Real Life Verdict


I felt a sense of relief, when Supreme Court of India gave its judgment recently on 1993 Bombay Bomb Blast case. Though it took over 20 years of judicial proceedings for sentencing the accused and more over the two main accused in the case, Dawood Ibrahim and Tiger Memon have not yet been arrested and not tried. L

At first, it was little difficult to digest, that Sanjay Dutt has been sentenced with 5 years imprisonment in the same verdict. Reason being, I really like Sunil & Nargis Dutt’s this child, I really like his Gandhigiri.  After all, he is our most loved Munna Bhai. And he is the one who taught us a very new concept of ‘Jadu Ki Jappi’ and ‘Gandhigiri’.  Beside this, he has given a few fine films like Naam, Sadak, Saajan, Vastav etc. His character in Munna Bhai made us forget his wrong done all these years.  


After the verdict day, Sanjay Dutt became the most flashed news and debated topic. A group of people is still seeking pardon for him. They are reasoning that he is a changed man now, his family background and their work for society etc. But I am not in favor of letting him go away without any punishment. It will set a very negative example for society. Anyone can depart safely doing any crime. Anybody can seek for pardon for being his 1st mistake and having particular family background. For me, committing a misdeed in first place is biggest crime; the term does not exist like my 1st crime or 2nd crime.  Mistakes are Mistakes.

I felt pleased by what he said in his statement that he respects the law and does not seek pardon. He would surrender himself in stipulated time frame. I am sure, before taking the final decision; he must have had a conversion with the spirit of Gandhiji in his typical Munna Bhai style. As we don’t expect such kind of wisdom from Sanjay Dutt ;)

Thus our Reel Life Hero has shown superhuman courage to accept the Real Life Verdict. On ending note I will say, being true fan of Munna Bhai, we will wait for you to get out of the jail. We will for sure welcome your comeback films with equal enthusiasm. Till then, all the best to face a tough life…

P.S. – I hope, the other pending cases against our superstars get the real justice soon, and they accept the verdict with equal heroic as our Screen Heros. J
