However, the same couldn’t always be said about some of Bollywood’s biggest names from the golden era. Veteran actor Sharmila Tagore, who shared the screen with legends like Sanjeev Kumar and Shatrughan Sinha, has never shied away from speaking about their chronic habit of arriving late on set. In a recent conversation with Mojo Story, Sharmila recalled how punctuality was a rare virtue for some of her co-stars. “We would be ready with our makeup and costumes by 9:30, and they would walk in around 11. Shatrughan Sinha would come whenever he wanted to,” she said. Sharmila Tagore contrasted their behaviour with Amitabh Bachchan’s impeccable discipline. “Raj Khosla was directing Amitabh Bachchan and Shatrughan Sinha. Amitabh would arrive exactly on time. If the shift was from 7 to 2, he’d be there at 7. If it was from 2 to 10, he’d be there at 2. Shatru would come at whatever time he …

Will AAP drop Sanjeev Arora after ED arrest? Punjab government waits

For now, however, the AAP appears in no mood for immediate damage control. Sources in the government said no decision on Arora’s Cabinet berth was likely in the near future and that the leadership was in a “wait-and-watch mode”. The dilemma before the AAP is not merely administrative but also political. The party already has a precedent at the national level.

The AAP then projected the arrest as a political vendetta and refused to resign on these grounds. An AAP leader, however, privately admitted that Arora’s …
