WHAT THEY SAY...
Most of Shiney Ahuja's co-stars and directors preferred not to comment about the actor's sentence. While they refrained from saying anything, a few put forth their thoughts ufffd
Chitrangada Singh (acted with Shiney in Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi and Kal: Yesterday and Tomorrow): "I only feel that the law is just as harsh and quick for the Kalamadis and Mayawatis of this country. Hope it's not an exceptional decision."
Mahesh Bhatt (Shiney acted in his productions like Gangster and Woh Lamhe): "His worst nightmare seems to be coming true. When it was alleged that he might have done it, there was a divided house. Some thought maybe he was framed and he may come out clean. Alas! It has not happened despite the maid retracting her statement. It's a moment of grief for everyone close to him. This verdict seems to change the notion that vulnerable and poor people don't get justice in India. It is said that the maid was influenced to retract her statement. At the same time, let's be fair to Shiney. We should not judge him till the time he moves to higher court. A lot of times, the verdicts have been changed."
