A special CBI court on Friday acquitted Sooraj Pancholi who was charged with abetment in connection with the Jiah Khan suicide case.

The CBI court judge A S Sayyad pronounced the verdict after hearing the final arguments of both sides last week. Sayyad cited a paucity of evidence in the case.

Pancholi was booked under section 306 (abetment to suicide) after a handwritten suicide note addressing him was sent from Jiah’s apartment. He was arrested by the Mumbai Police and was later released on bail.

Born to actors Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab, Sooraj Pancholi was arrested on June 10, 2013, a week after Jiah Khan was found hanging in her room. Khan’s mother Rabia Khan filed a petition in the Bombay High Court and alleged foul play in her daughter’s death. The case was transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation in 2014.

The investigative agency filed a chargesheet in 2015 and booked Sooraj Pancholi with abetment of suicide, not murder.

During the investigation, the CBI claimed Pancholi forced Jiah to terminate her pregnancy six months before her death which affected her mental health. However, the actor denied the claims saying the abortion was discussed in front of the doctor.

The CBI also revealed that Pancholi met Rabia Khan on May 18, 2013, to inform her about Khan’s depression and wanted space from her as he was due to make his Bollywood debut as an actor.

In his final statement before the court, Sooraj Pancholi called the investigation and chargesheet false and claimed that the prosecution witnessed and spoke against him as they were directed by the police, the CBI, and Rabia Khan.

Jiah Khan rose to prominence with her debut film Nishabd co-starring Amitabh Bachchan. Ram Gopal Varma’s film created quite a stir in the industry. Khan was also seen in Gajini co-starring Asin and Aamir Khan.

Drishyam

Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary is celebrated today on October 2nd, a beloved national holiday in India that has been embedded in our memory since we were young. But in 2015, an intriguing event occurred that gave this anniversary a new level of significance.

Whether you’re a fan of Bollywood or not, you’re probably familiar with the memorable events that took place in the movie Drishyam on this day.

As we follow the story of Vijay Salgaonkar, played by Ajay Devgn, and his family as they travel on an unexpected adventure in Drishyam. On October 3rd, they leave Panaji after attending a Satsang, enjoying Pav Bhaji, and going back home. This story gave rise to a popular meme that reappears on October 2nd like clockwork.

Even after 8 years, Drishyam fans are still in a state of shock about October 2, which played a significant role in the story. Again, this dialogue has been driving X users crazy.

When Vijay Salgaonkar reminds you, it’s not just any day—it’s October 2nd, a user noted. Another user said, Yaad hai na 2nd October ko kya hua tha, which translates, remeber what was on October 2nd.

The other said, I’m going to eat Paav Bhaji today, that’s the least I can do to celebrate a great movie like Drishyam.

Meanwhlie, here is a quick summary of the movie for those who haven’t seen it. Sam, the son of IG Meera Deshmukh (Tabu), secretly tapes Anju, Vijay’s daughter, taking a shower during a school nature camp and attempts to extort Anju using the video. Anju accidentally murders Sam while attempting to remove the evidence that could be used against her.

This paves the way for Vijay, a movie buff and cable TV provider, to come up with a plan to teach every member of the family to lie to the authorities by saying they were in Panaji on the day Sam went missing (2nd October).

Drishyam, which was directed by Nishikant Kamat, also stars actress Tabu, Rajat Kapoor, and Shriya Saran.
