Movie Review: Thank You For Coming - 3.5/5

# Justice Served: Celina Jaitly's Emotional Victory in Fight for Detained Brother **Imagine fighting for 18 long months to free your brother—a decorated army veteran—from unjust detention abroad.** That's the relentless reality Bollywood actress **Celina Jaitly** has endured, but a landmark Delhi High Court order has finally brought hope.[1][2][3] In a powerful ruling, the Delhi High Court directed the **Ministry of External Affairs (MEA)** to facilitate legal aid for Celina's brother, **Major (Retd.) Vikrant Kumar Jaitly**, detained in the UAE since September 2024. Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav ordered the MEA to issue authorization to **Al Maree Partners**, a Dubai-based law firm ready to represent him *pro bono* in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. If any hurdles exist, the MEA must explain via affidavit, with the next hearing set for February 10.[1][2][3] Celina alleges her brother was **illegally abducted and detained**, with the Indian government failing to secure basic details on his welfare, legal status, or communication for over a year.[1][2] Despite MEA objections—citing Vikrant's own list of firms and his statement that his wife, Charu Jaitly, would decide—the court cut through the red tape. "What is the impediment if the name is suggested by his father, mother, or sister?" the judge remarked, prioritizing action over bureaucracy.[1][3]

Celina's joy was palpable: "This has been an **18-month-long battle**. Today, my brother and our country's soldiers finally have his dignity given back... I'm sure now things will move in a very positive direction and very fast."[3][6] Her counsel, Raghav Kacker, hailed it as a key step, enabling a power of attorney for proper defense, boosted by recent India-UAE ties.[3] This saga underscores the grit of family bonds and the role of judiciary in protecting citizens abroad—especially a **special forces officer** like Major Vikrant, whose service deserves swift justice.[5] **What do you think—should governments prioritize faster aid for detained Indians overseas?
