In
today’s fast paced world, people are busy with their everyday lives and
commute. Youngsters seldom get time to relax and turn to other means such as
alcohol and drugs to reduce their stress. The social evil of drug addiction is
on the rise and curbing this menace is a necessity of today’s times. Abeer
Soofi who essays the role of Sai Baba in Sony Entertainment Television’s show
Mere Sai has practiced law before becoming an actor. He was deeply affected
after witnessing drug addiction cases. Coincidentally, the current track on the
show depicts the village of Shirdi encountering a drug menace. Sai Baba had
rescued villagers from the clutches of drug addiction.
When
contacted Abeer said, "I was a criminal lawyer before becoming an actor
and practiced law for a brief period. During my stint I came across people
turning to crime to satisfy their cravings for drugs. It was heart wrenching to
see people commit theft to buy drugs and I couldn’t fathom the reason for
people to get addicted to something which destroys their lives in all aspects.
I used to advise people to stay away from it whenever I could. With the
upcoming track on the show, I was glad that such a noble message will be sent
to audiences all over. I discussed the dialogues with the creative team and
also added my own inputs in the same.
It’s a humble request to all to steer clear of these drugs which only
cause harm and nothing else. Find something constructive to do, stay connected
to family and friends. Alcohol and drugs do not solve any problems that we face
in real life. One needs to take a firm step and find the happy spot in our
lives. Also, on the show we are presenting a case of Shirdi being affected by
drug addiction and how Sai Baba advises villagers to stay away from it and
saves them.”
