The actor has been roundly criticised for his photo ops with Mr Laxman. This report in The Times of India is a reminder of Mr Laxman's heartrending condition and, simply put, the insensitive timing of the visit.
R K Laxman is deprived of speech and movement. He didn't recognise Akshay Kumar. His wife says Laxman has never been much of a Bollywood man and was always selective about the cinema he patronised.
What lengths would actors go to promote films? Meeting paraplegic kids, more photo ops and the chance to show a humane face – is that all that matters?
Have ARB and Hrithik met paraplegics, war widows or victims of terror? I don't think so. Then why now?
We can guess the answer to that one.
