Well, this is what happens when you play with fire. If he was so much into cheap thrills, couldn’t he get anyone else? Messing up with the firebrand Mayawati, and that too in full filmi style, got him another FIR (if the earlier legal troubles were not enough). Serves him right. I think he should take wife Maanyata along. She’ll manage his political affairs just like his filmi ones.
