Laughing uproariously as he dismissed the report as pure nonsense Jackie Said, "Can you believe it? Bas ab yehi baqi reh gaya ttha. Logon ko kaam-dhanda nahin hai. Bas, yehi sab...
For the record I've never spoken to any journalist on this subject and certainly made no such declaration. Main pagal hoon kya?"

The entertainment industry has just suffered a huge blow. We lost Dev Saab. Instead of remembering him the news has now veered towards some absurd nonsense about my sexuality. Jeez! Man, we need to sober up. "
