Bollywood reaction: To Ram Singh’s suicide

After the main accused of the gang-rape in India killed himself, some in Bollywood voiced their opinions. I couldn’t agree with Sonam Kapoor. Sonam Kapoor: Once a coward always a coward.

I know I am tardy to the party… this is old. This was, I think, the best line. “We only try toContinue reading “Never Say Goodbye”
