Being an A lister or not has nothing to do with it Maddy. With a tag like this, I doubt even an A lister would retain his honor and dignity.
i'm not too sure ... in fact i am pretty positive that had it been an A lister, we would have had legions of fan supporting him saying how the woman was a publicity hungry, cheap woman who would do anything for money and her 15 minutes of fame ...
As someone said look at salman, his running over people, his physical abuse of his girlfriends ... you have enough fans here saying its all a conspiracy to malign their golden hearted star ...Forget salman, look at sanjay dutt ... he is convicted under TADA for the bombay blasts, but has it made an iota of difference to his popularity ?
Shiny was caught and convicted not because of our excellent system, not because of public outcry but simply because he wasn't big enough, not important enough.
As for the initial question - NO! absolutely no way should he be given a second chance ... i don't understand our legal system - If you have been Convicted by one court and you appeal to another, then the least the court can do is NOT grant bail ...
... If one judicial system has found someone guilty, why give them bail ... they should at least serve jail time till they wait for their appeal ... Is this not the way it works everywhere else except india ? ... anyone has any idea ?
