Salman sends reply to Maharashtra women’s panel

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has sent his reply to the Maharashtra State Commission for Women’s summons asking him to explain his recent “rape remark”, a top official said here on Thursday.

“He has filed his reply to us today. We are in the process of studying it before deciding the next course of action. I cannot reveal details at this stage,” MSCW Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar told IANS.

Last Thursday, Salman skipped the MSCW’s summons for personal appearance for the second time and remained away even on Thursday which was the third and final date given to him to explain his “felt like raped women” comment.

He was directed to submit his reply in an affidavit form explaining his recent comment which created a nationwide furore.

Earlier, he was summoned by the MSCW on June 29 and July 7 besides getting similar summons from National Commission for Women, New Delhi.

On the two previous occasions, through his lawyer, Salman had urged the MSCW not to proceed with the matter here since it was already pending before the NCW to avoid duplication, but Rahatkar had turned down his plea.

“We have concurrent powers just the way the NCW has. This matter can be heard at the state level too. Therefore, his version is invalid,” Rahatkar said then, flatly rejecting his plea.

The 50-year-old actor was issued a notice for his “raped woman” remark.

During a group media interaction prior to the release of his mega-blockbuster “Sultan” earlier this month, Salman said that he “felt like a raped woman” after shooting for a gruelling wrestling sequence in the film.

  • This is big disadvantage of being superstar. you just say anything casualy they will make nation debate on that.

  • Every second month, he gets a summon from one court or the other.
    By the time he retires, I don’t know which will be more – numbers of his blockbuster films or court cases!

  • After looking at the number of cases running against him, it’s pretty difficult to decide if he is a full time criminal & part time actor or a full time actor & a part time criminal.

  • During a group media interaction prior to the release of his mega-blockbuster “Sultan” earlier this month – haters are u listening ? ?

  • What is common in Vijay Malta, Lalu Yadav and Salman Khan ?

    Criminal/civil cases are running against all of them yet they are roaming freely.
    And for their fans and followers, still they are most ‘sacred’ and ‘innocent’ creatures on this planet earth.

  • Indicine instead of this you should have posted about ww collection and overseas records of sultan .
    And why you repeatedly underestimating the sultan collection , its 9 th day collection is airlift(the top film before sultan) 1st day figure ,inst it good??

  • Salman is not good actor and good person. He think him self God of acting so he can say anything. Send to him jail asap

  • Reply ki aisi ki taisi….

    come on everyone knows that was just a slip of tongue

    ..probably that was the closest adjective he could use to describe his tiredness when asked. Am a lady a girl …I felt bad with d comment initially but then knowing the subject (Salman) I knew he did not say that to provoke any gender deliberately….

  • Get a life
    I believe its tough to be a top celebrity

    some time back pm of country said that even if a pup dies on road , u feel for it , many thought that pm has made a statement which diminishes their religion
    Ase thought ko meri middle fingure a salaam

  • Even though we are giving too much attention to this issue but won’t it be nice on Salman’s part to just apologize.He said a wrong thing unintentionally so just come out in the open and say I apologize for what I said.
    Why does this guy have such an ego issue whether it is about arijit issue or this recent comment.

  • I think salman’s intention was not wrong,bcos he is a very good man….really media was so disgusting….

  • @aisha probably that was the closest adjective he could use to describe his tiredness when asked.
    Wow what great thinking?.

  • @spamzone:

    Cases and allegations don’t make anybody criminal, you loggerheaded dumb. Even our PM had several court cases & allegations in past. Do you think he is a criminal too???

    What is common in a loundaa and SRK??? Both dance for money in wedding parties!

    What is common in Lalit Modi, Vijay Malya & srk??? All of them run away…koi India sodke toh koi Eid sodke… LOL.

  • What can I say more about this idiot mindless brainless talentless turned papa’s made non actor?????

    This person is a shame in the name humanity.he surpassed all crime level and still roaming freely with out any hesitation.

    And our judiciary system (Supreme Court) told us will punish this criminal after summer season?????but where is justice?????

    This country is right now world’s most corrupt country in the name of democracy(though not comes under terrorism top country) where only money speaks.

    If this is not intolerance then what it is?????

    And this criminal ‘s fans claiming that if other superstars would have charged by this much cases then they wouldn’t have survive like salman!!!!!

    But they forgot it’s their star who is surviving due to these court cases and controversies ,if we snatch all these form this talentless non actor then he’ll do suicide at once.

    Just think of last decade,forget INDIA’S people not even his own fans were not watching his movies until and unless he copied south hero’s style and remakes their movies.

    And these joker’s fan came here to challenge THE TRUE BOSS/ALL TIME BIGGEST MEGASTAR KING SRK.

    Forget to touch KING KHAN’S ACTING ,CHARMING PERSONA.if EID wouldn’t have available then salman till now would have did suicide.

    BUT KING KHAN always released on small festivals for films like DEEWALI on which sallu failed numerous times.

    IN THE SAME CONTRARY,IF KING SRK WOULD HAVE ACQUIRE EID,THEN HE WOULD HAVE AT LEAST 5 BACK TO BACK ATBB ,which HE never tried and when HE did IT once,BOX OFFICE destroyed in one day.

    THE KING OF BOLLYWOOD IS THE TRUE INTELLIGENT BIGGEST MEGASTAR.

    whether in stardom crazy crowd pulling,c harm ,style,signature steps,presence of knowledge,ACTING and all in all everything,

    This recordless sallu is not even 10% closer to the feet of THE SELF MADE KING OF BOLLYWOOD.

  • Aisha , ur favourite is salman khan okay? Tat salman khan who many times beaten aishwarya rai, killed innocent people and won court case by hiring richest advocates in india.. Whole world knows salman was driving at non permissible speed tat too at drunken stage and he didnt even helped the victim,, ur idol salman made poaching of black buck, an endangered animal in rajasthan,,,, he made comments on hrithik guzaarish,,, he many times has physically abused and fought with media persons…. And god knows wt else…. Salman is ur idol!!!!!!! Well done keep it up!!!

  • rather than focussing n working on real women issues these toothless commission are more than interested in their two minute of fame.. why not focus n work towards real issue.. what would u get out of an apology.. will the condition of women improve? n who the hell are you to seek an apology.. just by making salman apologise want u wanna prove? that u are doing a great job! people will hail u? yes it was a wrong choice of words by salman but just move on n don’t feed on it.. it wasn’t intentional to hurt anyone.. we all have made such a statement sometime in our lives.. so many issues happen regarding women everyday where does these commissions go then? what do they do? targeting a celebrity for a faux pas which he took back immediately is not fighting for women.. show ur concern towards real issue..

  • @ aman kapoor

    I can’t say exactly in words what you may feel vice versa…that’s y I said ” Probably that was the closest adjective he could say about HIS(not mine not yours not others..his”) way of expressing his feelings.
    You and I won’t say it cz we know how ppl would perceive it…but already Salman has been involved in lots of controversial statements that aroused public intervention so it’s something you shd not be surprised. At 1st I was but later I figured out this is d same person that has a mom stepmom sisters he loves …it will be an understatement to say he was aiming at what ppl are assuming. It was a wrong statement but he is a grown up..no matter how long we keep blaming him he will always bring his own version which will suggest it was wrong at that moment esp in india today where rape cases happens every minute and shown worldwide but again we should look at his past tweets on other issues and now put it into practical..
    My conclusion is he goes off road in some sensitive issues when expressing but that’s his way. We know how a Shah Rukh Akshay Hrithik may express it but my own is that it’s becoming a national news which no matter what we know at that moment he did not have options of words to use. Yes it was wrong but I only blame it on his naivety n ignorance at thAt moment. I said it earlier…I was not happy but knowing Salman am not taking it the way some others and d media are.

  • Full time criminal or part time actor? Part time criminal or full time actor. @ xzone u want to kill me with laughter. ?

  • My idol is Ajay Devgn ,Kevin cosner, Matt Damon,Mandela,Mother Theresa, Wayne Rooney ,Sir Ryan Giggs ,Juhi chawla,Madhuri,Taylor swift, Sandra bullock and my Parents above all.

    Yes Shah, Salman, Aamir hrithik Ranveer Kamal, Sanjay duty,Rajesh khanna Virat, Sania mirza,are those I shall have unconditional love and also respect them always.

    There’s difference between idols and admirers.

  • @challa

    “I always wanted to be a pornstar. In fact am working towards it. I will establish myself as a big pornstar holding us flag”

    Srk…times of india 2009…..

    Great comment from Srk…no?

  • Why is it so important that Salman should not say sorry and the answer is that next time some famous actor and actress would say the word SHIT and there will be NGO’s asking for sorry. Salman did nothing wrong, it is a general expression used in daily life by almost everyone. For example. Aus raped 11 men in cricket ground today. Politicians are raping this country upside down. Salman retracted the answer right away by saying he should not have said that on that platform and I think he should not even have retracted it.

  • Abhay deol…” in india men’s private arts are worshipped”

    Vishal bhadraj…”censor board are behaving like Taliban terrorists it should be censored and chopped off”

    Deepika..”I will give Ranbir a gift of condoms cz he uses alot”

    Kangana” whole of Bollywood is unstylish barring Priyanka and sonam”

    Sonam ” just because one is ugly does not mean he or she can’t act”…taking a dig at non filmy ppl who questioned her acting.

    Jaya bachan…I would have slapped Srk if he was in my house

    Sonam to Shoba de…she is a fossil going tru menopause.

    Mallika shewarat..I opt for one night stand which is valid today.

    Shahid..I will even work with cow or buffolo if directors tell me too.( cows sacred animal..no Hindu raised any motion)

    Look they are some very immoral comments celebs make yet no action, protest human activism…

    I believe if one is to make media claims it should be general not for specific targets..Or choosing bigger superstars comments only…Ltd has to be fair…

    @ Aman..

    Yes I just got to know of d guzaarish comment. Yes I do not support it either.

    I hope henceforth… celebs chooses words before saying them out and if they do be them just normal stars to A list stars it should be considered all as 1,

    If others got me wrong or mis interpreted my previous comments..sorry I was just looking at it my own way.
