Punjab Law College Shooting: Questioning Bollywood's 'Relentless Love' Narrative

• A first-year law student, Prince Raj, shot classmate Sandeep Kaur point-blank before turning the gun on himself at Mai Bhago Law College.
• The incident, captured on CCTV, occurred after months of stalking and Sandeep's repeated rejections of Prince's advances.
• The article critiques Bollywood's portrayal of 'relentless love' and persistent pursuit, which can normalize stalking and disregard consent.
• It highlights a societal failure to teach boys how to handle rejection and respect a woman's 'No' as a definitive boundary.
• The tragedy is framed as a 'crime of control' stemming from male entitlement and fragile egos, not a 'crime of passion'.
