Bus driver who saved passengers 'inspired by Bollywood'

A driver who spotted a bomb and threw it out of his New Delhi bus – possibly saving dozens of lives – said he was able to recognise the device from watching Bollywood movies.

“I had only seen it in Hindi movies – a ticking clock wrapped in colourful wires connected to bombs. I never thought I will come across such a thing in real life,” Kuldeep Singh was quoted as saying by The Pioneer newspaper today.
