Richard Gere Accused of Obscene Behavior in India

He no way meant to hurt someone's feelings. In one of Richard's films – Shall We Dance – there was an episode with the same pose. Moreover, Richard Gere apologized to the actress.As for Richard Gere, he is not preoccupied with the 'kisses-incident' and his possible arrest. The celebrity actor considers the warrant for his arrest as not a serious matter. The actor added that all the buzz was made by an Indian small right-wing, conservative political party that may be compared to the moral police in the country. Gere is absolutely sure that if the case goes to a reputable court, it will get thrown out.According to the Indian laws, a person accused of public obscenity is subject to spend three months behind bars or pay a fine.Shilpa Shetty tried to defend herself and the actor, having stated that the public and media attention should be concentrated on the major issue – raising people's awareness of HIV and AIDS. The Indian beauty added that Richard Gere's actions reflected the normal patterns of behavior in his own country. On her opinion, people really overreacted to Gere's behavior who just wanted to entertain the audience.
