Top Bollywood names from David Dhawan and Hema Malini to Abhishek Bachchan say the sentence of six years’ rigorous imprisonment for Sanjay Dutt in the Mumbai serial bombings case is too harsh a punishment for the star.
David Dhawan: My wife Laali and I were with Sanju on his birthday on Sunday (July 29). We had so much fun. We were so sure that he’d come out of this. Little did we know what awaited Sanju two days later! Life’s not fair!
Sanju is god’s child. Always ready with a smile to help everyone, me included. Do you know he got me my first break as director! I was editing his films “Naam” and “Jaan Ki Baazi” when he prodded me and got my first directorial assignment. Why just me, he even got my assistant Ajay a break as director. He has given so much to so many people, not half of it is known.
For now the industry has come to a standstill. No one wants to celebrate. No parties, no premieres. He loves my sons, got them gifts from abroad. It’s really sad, because he lost his mother, wife, father – that man has gone through so much pain. When will it end?
Hema Malini: I feel terrible for him. We all go through problems. And I can feel the trauma his family is going through. But when the legal verdict is passed there’s nothing we can do or say.
Abhishek Bachchan: This is very upsetting.
