Have you heard? Bail, at last!

Jacqueline had reportedly sought bail stating that since the investigation had been completed and the chargesheet filed, there was no need for the law enforcement authorities to ask for her custody

Tuesday brought some good news for Jacqueline Fernandez, as the Patiala House Court granted her bail in the R200 crore money-laundering case involving conman Sukesh Chandrashekar. She had reportedly sought bail stating that since the investigation had been completed and the chargesheet filed, there was no need for the law enforcement authorities to ask for her custody. She had been named as an accused for the first time in the supplementary chargesheet. Sources say Jacky seemed a little relieved with the order of Special Judge Shailendra Malik. The Ram Setu actor, who had appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) several times, was previously granted interim bail on September 26. The agency opposed her bail plea, claiming, “She has tried every trick in the book to try and escape because she has enough money.”However, the court wondered why the ED has not arrested the actor yet. “Why haven’t you arrested Jacqueline yet despite issuing a Look-Out-Circular (LOC)? Other accused are in jail. Why adopt a pick-and-choose policy?” the court asked before granting her bail. 

Anniversary surprise

Yesterday, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh completed four years as husband and wife. Since she had prior work commitments, he decided to go the extra mile for her. Along with a picture of Deepika clicked by him, Ranveer wrote, “When she has to work on your anniversary so you surprise her at her office.” He also added, “P.S.: Never underestimate the power of flowers and chocolates. Diamonds not needed. Take notes and thank me later, gentlemen.” Wonder what DP has to say to that now.
