Sooraj Pancholi Writes An Open Letter On His 28TH Birthday; Speaks About The Jiah Khan Case
Hero actor Sooraj Pancholi turns 28 today. On the special occasion, the star kid took to social media to pen his thoughts. He not only thanks his parents for standing by his highs and lows, but also speaks up about the Jiah Khan's death case
Sooraj Pancholi began his filmy career with Hero (2015). Being Aditya Pancholi's son he was launched with a huge hype and a lot was expected from his debut. Despite the film's performance at the box-office, Sooraj was noticed by critics and fans alike. He is currently busy shooting for his next dance film with Katrina Kaif's sister Isabelle Kaif.
However, more than his films, it's been the Jiah Khan death case that has kept him in the news. It's been going on since the past 6 years, and the star kid has finally taken to social media to speak his heart out about the same. Today on his 28th birthday, Sooraj took to social media to share an open letter. Here's what it reads:
Today I complete 28 years of my life. I want to take up this moment to share a few thoughts that have been in my heart for a while. I wanted to wait to speak out until the case ended, but it’s taken longer than expected. I don’t know where to start from. It is difficult to express some feelings when so many people, so many emotions are involved. First, I want to thank those who have stood by me like a pillar of strength. It has been a long journey that started when I was still trying to understand life. I have been fighting the case in court for the last 6 years, with patience and respect, waiting for the trial to be completed. In this process I have been called a murderer, a criminal, an abuser and so much worse. I read these things about me almost every single day. And my heartfelt effort has always been to be strong, respectful and ignore it. But they still fill my and my loved ones’ heart with so much sadness. I don’t blame the people who call me names, because that’s how i have been portrayed in public, but i’m not the monster that has been portrayed in headlines. I know how easy it is to think the worst of someone and accuse them but it is exceptionally hard to prove myself innocent as there’s a procedure that we need to follow. A procedure that has taken long enough that i have been made to feel guilty without even being given a fair chance to prove my innocence. There have been accusations and assumptions but there has been no validation.
But, this is not about what others say. This is about how I feel. For as long as I can remember, my dream has always been to make my parents proud. I have always tried to be a good son to them. In the last 6 years, I’ve tried harder everyday to achieve this dream and to be positive.
Sooraj Pancholi
So today, I am praying with my heart that our family can move forward, that the trial can come to a fair end and that I can give back all the love, support and strength I have received from so many of you.
Thank you to all of you who constantly send positivity my way. You may not know it, but every single one of your prayers has helped.
