Today’s blind item comes from Mid Day. It speaks about this old actor and how he was not helpful when someone came to ask him for help financially. Now, we usually don’t explain the blind items upfront, but this seems to be a sensitive issue, so we decided to speak about it. What we learnt in life is when someone you know is asking you for money, there’s a huge chance that the person desperately needs it and that it took them a lot of guts to come and ask you to lend them some money. If you do have money, then you should help them. If you don’t, make them understand your situation so that if ever you are in that position in life, you will not feel sorry that you didn’t help that person. Now what about if the person is trying to make a fool of you by asking you for money? That’s for them to pay, your job as a human being is done as soon as you lend them the money. Irrespective of what that person’s intentions are, you got your good deed and it’s on record! Read on to find out what this actor did when he was asked for money from someone he knew. We do have two OSOP guesses for this blind as we don’t really know who exactly it’s about.
This Veteran Actor Refused Financial Help to a Background Dancer
Often spotted at charity events, this veteran actor is easily perceived as the go-to guy for help in times of distress, but turns out, he isn’t all that magnanimous. When a ’70s background dancer approached him for financial assistance for a medical emergency, he outright refused to offer any help.
An eyewitness says, “The actor was shooting at a suburban studio when an old lady entered the set. She enquired if the actor was available and narrated her ordeal to the production members. She said she had worked with the actor in many films as a background dancer and is now in urgent need of money for her daughter’s surgery.” As soon as the actor saw her waiting by his vanity van, he got upset. “She told him that she had gone to his house but could not meet him. Later, when she learned that the actor was shooting at that particular studio, she landed there to seek financial help.
However, the actor is known for his strict nature and straight forward attitude. He did not think twice before turning her down. The woman then left the set, teary-eyed,” adds the source.
Another source says the actor wasn’t sure if it was a genuine request for help and so, he shouldn’t be blamed.
