Who could forget the iconic Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor-starrer 3 Idiots? Even if you don't remember all the details, there's no way you can forget the eccentric human embodiment of a 'price tag', Suhas.
While most audiences never missed an opportunity to laugh at his character, a recent viral tweet threw light on "the other side of Suhas".
Twitter user Aaraynsh wrote, "Suhas, I used to laugh at you as a kid, but as I grew up, I realized you were a good man. Losing a 4-lakh rupee watch, for which you had worked tirelessly, would drive anyone crazy. I now understand now how it feels when a pair of 400 dollar shoes get dirty. Everyone dreams of earning more money, and you were not wrong in making your career choice. Tumne sab kamaya tha shyad islye tumhe keemat yaad thi :)"
As soon as the tweet started making rounds on social media, netizens began seeing Aaraynsh's perspective. Soon, Desi Twitter was abuzz with apologies to the character for misunderstanding his obsession with money.
In a delightful twist, the French actor who played Suhas, Olivier Lafont, has now reacted to all the apologies flooding his social media timeline. Taking to Facebook, the actor shared the original viral tweet and penned a heartfelt note.
