After Hours Correspondent

Amit Verma who plays the sensitive Rohan Kapoor of Kittu Sab Janti Hain (Sahara One) went on to play the role of a hero, for real this time!
Recently, Amit and his friend were returning from dinner on the Bandra highway and happened to chance upon a crowd on the road. Upon further inquiry, they discovered a biker nearly bleeding to death on the highway, totally inebriated and confused.
It took quite a while for Amit to convince the poor man that they were just helping him. First the man resisted and then the crowds were suspicious. Finally, Amit and his friend did manage to take the injured man to the nearest hospital. And, it was only after notifying his family and making sure that he was in their care, did Amit leave the hospital.
Amit himself is quite nonchalant about this whole incident. "Well, anyone would have done the same thing. I feel we should make road safety and awareness our top most priority if we want to progress further, basic civility is where it all starts! I appeal to all to be humane and not turn the other way when a fellow human being is lying in danger. Thats why Ive joined up with an NGO to help our fellow riders ride better," says Amit appealing for more awareness on road safety.
