Shiney’s wife Anupam had called a press conference yesterday and vehemently supported her husband. She rubbished all the claims by the maid and said her husband was one thousand percent innocent. Well that only time will tell. But she has raised a very sensitive issue that rape can be done by a woman too and every time the man should not be put to fault.

I don’t know why but somehow I am finding that there is more to the case that meets the eyes. According to the media reports, Shiney was found relaxing in his house watching TV when they reached his Oshiwara house. If he had done such heinous crime would he be so complacently sitting at his residence? I understand that every law of the land is in favor of the maid, but if Shiney is not at fault, all this brouhaha is simply ruining his family’s life.

In the past, there have been many instances in the bollywood and hollywood when a happily married man has fallen for the nanny or the maid. David Beckam’s affair with Rebecca Loos comes to mind. Then closer home, who can forget Madhur Bhandarkar’s affair with Preeti Jain.

However, it would be better for the media to avoid mud slinging at the actor at this point of time. He is innocent till there is sufficient evidence to prove his crime. It is better to just wait and watch till the DNA report comes in. If Shiney is found guilty, then the media and the Internet can very well say what they like. In fact, I intend to post again after the reports come in. Hope truth prevails!
