Crime and Punishment underworld Nexus surfaces again! is Hrithik's life in danger?
Ongoing is a dangerous crime thriller, but with a difference. You can't walk out of it after three hours. It's actually happening and the casualties (intended or actual) aren't showreel, they're for real. The film industry-under-world nexus has been speculated, written about, been fodder for several ana-lytical news items. But, like all things with a shelf-life, the attention-span devot-ed to the subject has died out after the initial volatility. For a while, the underbelly of the crime-world would retreat into dark dens till the matter died. And resurface with renewed vi-gour... until the next time.

This is such a time. The arrest of Nazim Rizvi, the producer of the Salman-Rani-Preity starrer 'Chori Chori Chupke Chupke' expos-es another such 'deadly' liaison between the filmi and under-world don Chhota Shakeel. And alongwith, like a montage, tumbled several more insights into the crimes that have been recently committed and remained unsolved. For instance, the inexplicable (not really) shoot-out and the attempt on Rakesh Roshan's life.{Hrithik wallpapers}
Charged with, among other things, a criminal conspiracy on at-tacking some film personalities, Nazim Rizvi would stand trial/be released on bail a few days after this article goes to press. He's accused to have used coercion under Chhota Shakeel's name to get stars to prioritise his film. Something that one can under-stand immediately. 'Coz on several occasions, stars have con-fessed, ('strictly off-the-record', of course) that they've had to perform at stage shows, private parties of these criminals 'under duress'. "We can't say 'No' or play difficult because these people are dangerous, they'll stop at nothing. And you have to think of your near-and-dear ones who can be harmed."

Which is exactly what happened when Rakesh Roshan was shot at. The conspiracy involved killing the heart-throb of the nation, Hrithik Roshan and his father, who was ultimately the target for shooting. Apparently, prior to the shoot-out, extortion demands were made on Rakesh Roshan and the filmmaker refused to capitu-late, which resulted in the unfortunate violence and attempt on his life. 'Stardust' checked with Rakesh about what had been appearing in the papers and whether he was aware that he had been targeted. And he sounded rather perplexed. "I'm quite shocked," he said firmly. "I saw it on the news last night and I still haven't been able to get over it. I thought all this was behind me but looks like it's going to continue for some more time. Somebody also told me sometime back that a newspaper has even carried the taped coversations between the producer and Chhota Shakeel, where there seem to be some references made about me and Hrithik. I've just sent my boy to get hold of the paper. The police haven't got in touch with me so far but I'm sure they are doing what they have to. What's most unfortunate is that someone from the film industry is involved in something like this. That's what bothers me most," he stated with a tinge of concern.

Another name that came up in the course of this film-underworld nexus investigation was that of financier Bharat Shah, who's also funded 'Chori Chori...' But, on that matter, not much is being spoken because things are "not too clear", say the police.

Rizvi is said to have threatened Ajay Devgan and his secretary too, to stall the release of their film 'Raju Chacha', which would hit the theatres the same time as Rizvi's 'Chori Chori Chupke Chupke'. When contacted, Ajay's secretary Kumar Mangat heard out the question about whether he was threatened and then disconnected the line without reply. Subsequently, the cellphone was kept off. Obviously, he didn't want to take a stand with a 'Yes, I was threatened' because then he'd have to face the music sometime or the other. Fear looms larger than any attempt at bravery or courage. Heroism is strictly meant for the screen, we guess, even as Ajay Devgan wasn't available for comment.

The police have exactly this very grievance. "The film industry and stars who are threatened should come to us if such an in-stance occurs. Only if they co-operate will we be able to fight the underworld from spreading their tenctacles and gripping the industry," said Joint Commisioner of Police, D. Sivanandan.

On whether Hrithik Roshan would be provided protection, now that it was clear that there was threat to his life, Sivanandan said, "If the police is approached for protection, we shall definitely do the needful. Whether it's Hrithik Roshan or anyone else." But, the film fraternity argues that the police of the land don't exactly inspire supreme confidence. The lawmakers are several times fooled by the lawbreakers. "If they've really outsmarted us, how come we break their chain time and again? But for us to do this effectively, we need the people harassed to come forward," said a police spokesperson, defending his creed.

And that's the bottom line. The crimefighters can't do their job as long as the victims inadvertently aid the criminals, by re-maining mum and succumbing to intimidation. Ajay Devgan, Rakesh Roshan, et al... are you listening?
