'If you jump, I jump,' isn't just a memorable quote from the 1997 movie 'Titanic'. On Friday, it is what helped police inspector Shalini Sharma convince a suicidal woman from taking her own life. Sharma spoke to mid-day about how she talked the 30-year-old lawyer off the ledge of a 20-storey under-construction building in Wadala, which began with a call from ACP Dinesh Doshi. Her feat was reported on May 6, 'Lawyer counselled back to life within 2 feet of suicide.'
