The case registered against actors Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani for being out during the lockdown in Mumbai on Thursday feels excessive.
It seems a case of celeb-picking though I am not suggesting that Tiger and Disha are above the law.
I am assuming that if it was a non-celebrity couple out for a drive, the cops would have probably let them off with a mild rebuke.
But when you see Tiger-Disha out for a spin, you've got to make an example out of them.
While Tiger is not saying anything to defend himself, his parents are understandably upset.
"Why should his parents not be upset?" asks a close friend of Tiger.
"They know he is a law-abiding citizen. He won't even break a red light. Tiger has been relentlessly working to provide relief during this pandemic. He doesn't want to create a brouhaha about his good work," says the friend.
"It breaks his heart that people want to focus on negativity rather than look at all the good work being done."
