It is surprising that publicity-hungry Vindu Dara Singh is blaming the media for the spot-fixing mess that he is currently in. But maybe it is not so surprising, after all. Media bashing ufffd many times justified and sometimes not ufffd has become a fashion
After Vindu got bail, media cameras surrounded him as he came out of jail. He ranted and raved about the media and claimed innocence, even blaming the fourth estate for the time he had to spend in jail, reports state.
This from the same man who has wooed the press after his Bigg Boss win, who had a public relations person working for him, feeding information and press releases about his latest plans and projects — whatever they may be — and was seen revelling in the spotlight, waving to the cameras accompanied by a grin during the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Today, he blames the same press for his troubles after reports state that he sang like a canary in jail. It is common knowledge that those arrested admit to their crimes at first, but later say that the admissions were made under pressure, or that they were brow-beaten in some way, once lawyers step into the picture. Those who first woo the press and their cameras for publicity must realise that this craving for fame will backfire or come to haunt them during controversy. Publicity means you are under scrutiny even when things go wrong. You are in the spotlight in the good times and even when fickle fame deserts you — in the bad.
