Who in BOLLYWOOD would have done the same thing ?

Cumberbatch reportedly rescued a London delivery bicyclist who was being beaten by a group of four people on Friday. Cumberbatch was allegedly in a cab with wife Sophie Hunter when he saw the cyclist being struck over the head by a bottle

The cab driver, Manuel Dias, told the Sun newspaper that "Benedict was courageous, brave and selfless. If he hadn't stepped in, the cyclist could have been seriously injured. Here was Sherlock Holmes fighting off four attackers just round the corner from Baker Street.

Dias added: "He stood there instructing them in the street, shouting, Leave him alone.' I had hold of one lad and Benedict another. He seemed to know exactly what he was doing. He was very brave. He did most of it, to be honest.

Cumberbatch was modest about his heroics. The Sun quoted the actor saying, "I did it out of ... well, I had to, you know.

A Deliveroo spokesman thanked Cumberbatch for his "heroic actions.

Don't have any Bollywood actor in mind, though I remember some actress from the bengali film industry doing the same when she chased a car full of drunkards who ran over this man and dragged him for a few kms and finally got those drunk guys arrested.

Chakraborty witnessed an Indica car carrying two drunk men hit a motorcycle in the busy area of Teghoria on VIP road in Kolkata on Sunday. Instead of stopping, the culprits sped away with the rider of the bike stuck to its wheels, dragging him for approximately 3 kilometers till Lake Town .

Unlike others of her creed, Chakraborty sped into action asking her driver to chase down the Indica. As soon as her Scorpio caught up with the Indica near Lake Town, making it finally stop, she got out of her car and took down the Indica's licence plate number .

The actor also snapped pictures of the two drivers, while her bouncers got their car keys. She fulfilled her duty by informing the police. The injured motorcycle rider, identified as Rakesh Agarwal, was taken to the hospital. He is is still in a critical condition .

Chakraborty later told Ananda Bazar Patrika how 'no car on the road stopped to help the motorcycle rider as he got dragged by the Indica for nearly three kilometers'.

Even when she got the drunk drivers to stop, the only people who stepped forward came up to take her picture, lamented the actor.
