Bookie Was Forcing Arbaaz Khan, Blackmailing Him...
The recent IPL betting scandal just got uglier. Arbaaz Khan was very uncomfortable since the past few days because the infamous bookie Sonu Jalan was blackmailing him. Imagine the trauma that the Khan-daan was undergoing...
Gambling sucks you dry. It
is an addiction and in totality, you always lose; it's Heads they win, tails we
lose!
Here are some famous quotes:
By gaming we lose both
our time and treasure:
two things most precious
to the life of man
-Owen Feltham
True luck consists not in holding the best of
the cards at the table; luckiest is he who knows just when to rise and go
home
-John Milton Hay
Gambling operates under the premise that greed
can be satisfied by luck
-Rita Mae Brown
A gambler never makes the same mistake twice.
It's usually three or more times
–Terrence "VP Pappy" Murphy
Arbaaz Khan was feverishly addicted to gambling
and did not realise that he was draining himself, wife and family of a massive
amount of earnings and savings.
Arbaaz Khan
Reportedly, no money changed hands between the
bookie Sonu Jalan and him for Arbaaz's bets in IPL matches. Whether it did or
not, Arbaaz was in the red at almost every given point.
What happened next?
Arre yaar aur paise lagata hoon... itna, utna...
main is baar zaroor jeet jaunga--- that was the story as it is in every
gambler's house.
Now, it has come to light that recently Arbaaz
tried to distance himself from Jalan, following which Jalan became rather
aggressive in blackmailing the actor into attending public events.
Talking to Times Of India, inspector Pradeep
Sharma, senior police inspector from Thane anti extortion cell, has confirmed,
"After this, Jalan started harassing Arbaaz to accompany him to various
public functions like local Ganesh mandals and Holi festivities so that he
could flaunt his Bollywood connections and gather more clients."
For those who've come in late, we brought you an
EXCLUSIVE chat with Salim Khan last night wherein he raised a few points, in
the wake of Arbaaz's name cropping up from Jalan's diary.
