Mumbai, in the last few days, has witnessed compassion and aid at their truest shapes. Followed by massive rainfall, transportation of every medium was disrupted. Mumbaikars, stranded amid heavy waterlogs inside trains, cars and on streets, were left clueless. This was followed with discontinuation of electricity in parts of the city. But nothing unites us like crisis does. Hence, within a few hours, laymen were into the rescue mission. From churches and Gurudwaras to schools, colleges and coffee shops, everyone opened their gates for the troubled ones. Twitter was flooded with people inviting the stranded ones to their homes.
But! Amid the spirit of love, stand-up comedian Daniel Fernandes had a different experience. Apparently, he turned to Samjay Dutt’s manager for help regarding parking his car. What he received in return was a set of threats! (Also Read: Sanjay Dutt’s royal look is quite good in the poster of ‘The Good Maharaja’)
Daniel later took to Twitter and detailed the incident over a series of tweets. Â “The manager of Sanjay Dutt’s office threatened to beat me because I asked if I could park my car on the elevated platform of the building that I live in [the actor has an office on the first floor and has blocked an entry point for himself]. All I asked was to let my car stay there till the water recedes… People are helping in any way they can, this fine gentleman was on some weird power trip shouting at me like I asked him to kiss me. Ridiculous,” he wrote, over a series of tweets.

All I asked was to let my car stay there till the water recedes. My car was already flooded at this point and in danger of stalling.
