The sympathy factor is very complex algebra. It depends on how a sympathy seeker cries. The loudness, the pitch, the reason, and who made you cry, everything matters. At times instead of getting public sympathy, you might end up evoking laughter. Usually when a politician of an opposition party is subjected to victimisation, his popularity touches the sky. But for the first time I have come across a case like Bhart Inder Chahal’s where he is not getting a shoulder to cry on. I have heard people saying, "Aise aadmi par ek aadh galat case bhi pad jaye to kya hai." In contrast to Chahal, though there are no logical comparisons between the two, Sanjay Dutt has been able to win much sympathy. One of the possible reasons could be his continuous good behaviour and the meaningful roles he has played in films like Munna Bhai. One cannot expect Mr Chahal to exhibit Gandhigiri like Munna Bhai. If a policeman had slapped Mr Chahal, as he claims, he couldn’t offer his other cheek to him saying, "Ek aur maro". He has an option. While in the Punjab Police custody, he should study the third degree methods of interrogation and work towards inventing new methods of scientific and dignified investigation. That might come in handy if he ever comes to power again with Capt Amarinder Singh. A crooked politician had
got his finger cut. An onlooker ran here and there out of panic and
started weeping. The politician was moved, "I appreciate your
feeling my pain, but why are you weeping?" He said, "I am
weeping because I cannot find salt to put on your wounds".
