Sandeepa Virk on her jail term

In a conversation with Simran Jot Makkar, recalling her time inside the prison, Sandeepa said, “Tihar is a place I wouldn’t wish even on my worst enemy. When I went there for the first time, I told God that I don’t deserve this. On the first day, when I went to the washroom, I thought — people say everything is karma; maybe I made some mistakes in a past life, knowingly or unknowingly. I felt — I don’t deserve this.”
