Sooraj Pancholi revealed in an exclusive interview on how he was exonerated in the suicide case of Jiah Khan. He greeted the court’s ruling as the start of a new chapter in his life and expressed happiness that his family is now at peace. The interview is excerpted here.
I awoke this morning feeling like a completely different person. Not only do I feel relieved, but I also feel serene, and that, to me, is more important than anything else.
There was not only lack of evidence against me. There was zero evidence. This was a circus created by some people for their own entertainment. And it is sad that this lie took away ten years of my life. Even the letter(the alleged suicide note) for which I was arrested (ten years ago) …it has been proven after ten years in the honourable court that it wasn’t written by Jiah. The handwriting matches with Jiah’s mother’s diary not Jiah’s diary.
Yes, this is the sad truth. But now I will try to leave all this behind and move on. It’s time for me give back to my family the time I took away from them. It’s time to stand up and take care of my parents and my sister, do good things in life.I plan to settle down in life. A lot needs to be planned. I never made any plans all these years.
