This is real India, quite different from the dreamy silver screen where the hero is there everytime, the heroine is in trouble. Celina Jaitley faced this harsh reality when her brother Vikrant Jaitley, an army officer, was involved in a hit and run accident and none of the people present on the scene came forward to his rescue. Finally, a passer-by picked up Vikrant’s cell phones and dialed the last number on it, which happened to be Celina’s father’s number.
Says Celina, “Vikrant could have died right there on the road. He was lying unattended on a pool of blood for 25 minutes while the people around simply stood and stared. No one helped my brother. The women stood with their dupattas clasped to their mouths while the men stared at the scene. Everyone in Mhow knows my father and our house is known as the Jaitly kothi. Yet nobody came to rescue him.”
“No one lifted a finger, while a man in uniform was dying. Finally, one gentleman who was passing by saw the scene and called up my father from my brother’s mobile phone which was lying a little distance away,” continues the actress.

Vikrant is now recovering well and doctors have said that he will be back on duty, as an army officer, within weeks.
