Earlier, while talking to ANI, Pandit said, "A mother being abandoned by son is the biggest crime which any human being can commit. We request Deven Bharti (joint commissioner of police, law and order) to arrest him as soon as possible and take appropriate action as per the law so that a message goes in the society that a senior citizen, a mother, cannot be treated like this." Geeta's son reportedly left her at Goregaon's SRV hospital under the pretext of withdrawing cash from a nearby ATM. Geeta, whose son is said to be a choreographer, has worked in films such as 'Pakeezah' and 'Razia Sultan.'
