Dalip Tahil, a prominent figure in the world of cinema, finds himself entangled in a web of legal woes. The seasoned ‘Baazigar’ actor has recently been handed a two-month prison sentence, a consequence of a fateful 2018 hit-and-run incident that shook Mumbai.
Dalip Tahil sentenced to two months jail
In a dramatic courtroom saga, the judgment hinged upon the compelling testimony of a vigilant doctor. This medical expert, who examined Mr. Tahil, noted alarming signs indicative of inebriation. The actor’s very breath betrayed him, reeking of alcohol. His gait was unsteady, his pupils dilated, and his words indecipherable – all irrefutable proof of his inebriation.
The grim tale unfolded when the thespian, then aged 65, chose to get behind the wheel in a drunken stupor. His ill-fated drive culminated in a catastrophic collision with an innocent auto-rickshaw, leaving a hapless woman severely injured in the bustling Khar area.

In a desperate attempt to evade responsibility, Tahil embarked on a hasty escape. However, destiny had other plans. The chaos of the annual Ganesh Visarjan processions brought his escape to an abrupt halt, ensnaring his vehicle in a gridlock of traffic. Incensed passengers from the auto-rickshaw swiftly caught up to him, confrontations ensued, and the law was called to the scene.
One vigilant officer recounted, “The impact of the collision caused Ms. Gandhi to sustain a severe jolt to her back and neck. Ms. Gandhi and Mr. Chugh alighted from the auto-rickshaw, only to find the actor’s car attempting to flee towards Santacruz. Fate, in the form of the Ganeshotsav immersion processions, had a different ending in store for him.”
