Annu Kapoor: Barrister Ram Chotrani

Quotes 

• Barrister Ram Chotrani : Two types of people live in our society: men and women. It is said in the shastras, a woman is like a river. If she stays within the limits of the sides, it brings happiness. And if it crosses the limits, then it brings destruction.

• [Raj and Ram sitting in a café] 

  Barrister Ram Chotrani : Look here, Raj. Sexual exploitation is not a new thing. In big companies, in offices, men often to such a thing with women. But this case is the opposite, here a woman tried to sexually exploit you, but our society has a mindset, that such a disgusting act can only be done by men.

  Raj Malhotra : So, how can I get justice?

  Barrister Ram Chotrani : If you want, we can do a sexual harassment case. But, it'll be difficult to prove. There are less chances of winning. And listen to the side effects of losing: media need such spices, they will publish you on the front page and make you infamous, women's organizations will make your life hell, your service will be gone, you will fall so low in people's eyes that no one will be ready to give you work anywhere.

  Raj Malhotra : [feels tensed] 

  Barrister Ram Chotrani : This is the matter of a very big company and its MD's honor. To save her status and prestige she will file a case of attempt of rape. And unfortunately, she may even prove it. After that, 7 years jail term. Didn't you tell this to Priya?

  Raj Malhotra : No.

  Barrister Ram Chotrani : Good, good. Look, I'm your friend. As a friend I'm giving you an advice. You resign and make any excuse to Priya and go away with her somewhere far away.
