I typically do not reply in such threads that instigate controversies that are uncalled for, but this was mighty interesting. We all are entitled to our opinions and we all have our beliefs, despite good arguments deliberated against us. With that being said, I am not trying to put forth a biased judgment here, nor that I am trying to delve only on the negative aspects of Paras.

But before expounding what I believe in, I had this lengthy discourse with my mother over skype last month.

‘I feel bad for him, he has little kids and wife; may he live’ was what my mother said.

Now, there Is nothing wrong with it. She is a good soul, she sympathized someone close to death. But little did she know (or at least was completely oblivious at that time) that the very person she is praying for abandoned his wife and kids and stayed with a girlfriend, consumed marijuana, vandalized an apartment, stopped taking medication and then had a cardiac arrest. It is not that he was trying to help a poor soul and got run over by a bus. What we need to understand is that the bonding, love, kinship in our family is completely different with Paras’s family. He has so much wealth and power and sidekicks, he doesn’t need a mom to kiss his forehead every morning or a wife to give him a backrub after he returns from a hard day work. If it is still not clear to many, our version of LOVE is different than his.

And this reply is to the facebook poster Miss Bhandari - you need to discern between a good judge of character and a fool that finds pleasure in negativity. Your point would have been valid for someone like Tiger Woods, maybe (even though I have issues with forgiving him sometimes), but here we are speaking of Paras Shah - the effing monster that never changed. Just when we started sympathizing, he came off with his stupid immoral shenanigans and proved us wrong ‘numerous times’ and will continue to do so.

If Paras had abandoned his misdeeds and became a humanitarian for at least few years and then had a cardiac arrest, believe me, I would be the first person to start a thread in his support.
