To err is human, to forgive is divine: Salim Khan apologises

Veteran writer Salim Khan has apologised on behalf of his son Salman Khan, for the controversial ‘raped woman’ remark.

In a series of tweets, Salim said:

“Undoubtedly what Salman said is wrong, the simili, example and the context. The intention was not wrong”

“Nevertheless I apologise on behalf of his family his fans & his friends. Forgiveness is to pardon the unpardonable or it is no virtue at all”

“To err is human to forgive divine. Today on International yoga day lets not run our shops on this mistake.” he said.

During a promotional campaign of Sultan, Salman, while talking about the hard-work that was involved in shooting the film, had said ”Those 6 and a half 7 hours, either I’m picking up and throwing or he’s picking me up and throwing. So it’s like the most difficult thing. When I used to walk out of that ring, it used to actually feel like a raped woman walking out….”

He was quick to add “I don’t think I should have said that..” but the damage was already done and Salman was slammed for his remarks on social networking websites like Twitter and Facebook.

  • Salim sir is right. Forgiveness is divine. That is why I even forgive and forget the king of 3.7 billion fans for his many gravely treacherous acts towards his friends and nation…..

  • Yes……but the damage was already done and Salman was Slammed for his remarks on social networking websites like Twitter and Facebook and by a great website like Infidelcine.

  • Omg! such an exaggeration, over reaction, such n importance given for what may or not has been said intentionally. Well wr donot have thermometer to judge if salman’s intention was wrong or right. What we knew is he quickly realized he should not have said that. Well even after that if media is exploiting this than we belong to era of insensitive media and as a person who too much overreacts to it we are feeding them irresponsibily. Well i feel sorry for both salman and salim sahab who has been a soft target and also for all the women whose semtiments are unintentionally hurt. Lets not discuss this any more. This will add more salt to the wound. Best of luck for sultan. Thx.

  • I don’t know why people (i.e. especially the haters like Indicine) find it so difficult to digest. He compared himself something with a bad condition suffered by a woman after a bad or bitter moment.
    He didn’t say bad about anyone.
    When he says bad about himself, he is bad. When he faces a conflict, he is always at the wrong and.
    Why after all? Just because he doesn’t use sugar coated words like others do.

  • @Makkhi population, when Akki can be forgiven for his blatant ignorance when his bodyguard physically assaulted an innocent fan, why can’t Salman be forgiven for something bad he said about himself. Your hatred smells fishy and logic sucks badly many times.

  • @Jadoo Toys, You are at the peak of hypocrisy!! Or are you all suffering from selective amnesia?
    While badmouthing Salman, you ignored or totally forgot Hrithik-Kangana Scandal and how he humiliated her on public platforms for a consented relationship they once had.
    And his extra marital affairs with Barbara Mori leading him to getting divorced by his wife??
    Oh that’s Hrithik, not Bhai. He is not at fault. Only the other parties or the woman are… Typical hypocrite and hater!!

  • @Stark R u Kidding Me? Whole India Prefers Salman Over Ur Overactor Srk. Is whole India Dumb? If He has Acted in Only 2 Movies Then Why He Is Ruling since The Very Start Of his career? Get a life ! And Btw Tell Me 1 Movie In which Srk has not overacted. For Srkians Shouting and Stammering Is Called Acting.

  • @Fraud Gj007, I am copying this comment for you because it suits you and your nature.

    Via Rakib,

    ”Textbook case of Hypocrisy:- Clap & whistle at manufactured ‘BALATKAR’ scene of 3 IDIOTS but outrage over Salman’s inadvertent ‘rape’ remark!
    -Navneet Mundra”

  • Hahahahah, so much frustration coming out of SRK’s fans. They finally got something to puke o. Salman. Hahaha so much fun reading their frustrated messages. Tell me one person who doesn’t make funny statements like Salman did in real life. Get a life Loosers.

  • @Abhishek Hrithikian, Can’t believe you still think Hrithik is a dignified man or a man with a dignity after his nasty public display against Kangana!! Can’t believe you still blame Suzzane for his two or more times extra marital affairs. Can’t believe you jadoo toys still defend him…

  • @Chipkaali and @Dolly Bindra have got nothing more to say or praise about their flop icon. That is why they are seen more often under the articles of Salman than those of their dethroned king…

  • @Anipunma, Perhaps the shivering jadu boy told Salman how a rapppeeed woman feels like. The jadu boy might have seen it practically when his wify was getting bang banged by that Arjun Rampal.
    Oh, Kangana too got rapppeeed by her silly ex jadoo boy…

  • His interview can be heard at the following link. Fast forward to 1:50 for the relevant portion.

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BFUG4TmPRC0

    And also some journalists at 2:05 seemed to really enjoy that example. You can clearly hear the giggling and laugh.

    Wonder if those journalists are also being put to task for enjoying the crude example.

  • I am salman khan fan god of bollywood se all over the world je kono problem hole all fan support salman khan ke very good all fan salman khan

  • @5:02pm:

    Being a papa’s boy is better than taking papa’s help to have babies (then throw the woman)…!!!

  • @5:10pm:

    Nobody is forcing you to forgive him. Do not forgive him and boycott his upcoming movie. But remember the whole India will forgive him and come out in big numbers to watch SULTAN!!!
    #mark my words!!!

  • @5:53pm

    When/where did Bhai called himself a Muslim??? Even in Bombay high court he said that his religion is Indian. He does Ganesh pooja, also goes to Mosque & Church.
    BTW, you smell like a Nathuram godse worshiper & Osama bin Laden worshiper!!

  • @6:53pm:

    Finally you are caught red handed, chameleon bhagoda fan! Whole the day you pretend yourself a Bhai+ Ajay fan but now rather defending Bhai you are praising a bhagoda fan’s bhagoda praising comment!
    #Get lost Chameleon!!!

  • @buddhi ki ullu:

    Ye joking karne ka theka sirf jokerboy ne le rakha hai kya??? If you can call jokerboy’s statement was sarcastic why can’t you accept Bhai’s statement as a sarcastic one too??? HYPOCRITE Chameleon!!!

  • @unmatchable makki:

    An example of such galti is……”I want UP to be postponed so that my HF 3 can collect a few crores more”—— legendary jokerboy!!!

  • @chameleon gaurav 420:

    Finally you have gotten an opportunity to come out from the hole (in which you were in Hibernation mode)…!!!
    #I like it!!!!

    #Fasal kerala

  • Haan Bhai, Indicine Team Iss Tamed Tiger Ko Iska Haq Dilaao…

    Iska Ek Sarfira Ganwaar Aur Anpadh Non Class Star kuchh bhi anaf-sanaf bol deta hai aur murder, harrasment, abuse, slaps, etc. kar deta hai par ye saale Uss chaman ko defend karna chahte hai…

    Inka haq do Indicine please…

    Dubb maro chullu bhar pani mein…

    That criminal is dangerous for the civilized society and your kind of illiterate people encourage him whatever in all wrong doing of him…

    Thhhoooooo…

  • Salman again, hunting protected animals, running over a sleeping man on the pavement, insulting women, what next?? He is a top Bollywood star, and expects that he would get away…NOTICE, others apologise for him. At his age, he is a poor example for his young followers.

  • @Vipul- Lallu fans talking about ACTING?!!!!! That too in comparison to SRK who is the most awarded actor in the history of Indian Cinema?? Kya footi kismat hai SRK ko whose acting is being compared with a non-actors acting!! Lallu can ACT? Even the newcomers like Ranbir, Ranveer and Varun knows more acting than him. The only time Lallu managed to earn an award for acting was when he played sidekick to SRK in Kuch Kuch Hota Hain and even then at the Filmfare he said things like ” I hope Shah Rukh supports me like this”. If he has ruled since his debut why would he require SRK’s support? Why would he give 6 back to back flops in the 90’s. Not to mention the back to back disasters he gave for the entire decade of 2000’s!!

    The whole India prefers Lallu over SRK? ROFL. Lallu can’t even win a single pole on Indicine. That shows none of the educated mass likes him. He has become a star due to the illiterate rickshawalas in India.

    The number of times SRK showed what acting is? THis is the topic that makes SRKians the most proud. Since there are so many.

    Darr, Baazigar, Kabhi Haa Kabhi Naa, DDLJ, Pardes, Dil Se ( cult classic in spite of being flop), Kuch Kuch Hota Hain, Kabhi KhusHi Kabhie Gum, Devdas (selected as the 10 best movies in the millenium worldwide by Time Magazine), Kal Ho Naa Ho, Veer Zaara, Swades, Paheli, Don, Chak De India, My name is Khan, Don 2, Jab Tak Hain Jaan and now Fan.

    Many of the movies in the list have won National Award. Not to mention record breaking awards at filmfare. If there were any overacting in them they wouldn’t be so successful internationally.

    No wonder SRK is the most awarded actor. Not only awarded in his country but has won international honour from countries like France, Malaysia, Morocco etc. Special Honour from Yale University, Edinburgh University etc. Abe Bhaitard it’s a shame that SRK is compared with classless uneducated Lallu. To the Lallutards acting is equivalent to shaking belts and pockets. Lallu’s legendary performance (!!!!) in tera nam couldn’t earn him any honour.

    So don’t do the bakwaas of talking about acting when you have opted for being a Lallutard. Be happy that some uneducated people watch Lallu’s movies. THE WHOLE WORLD prefers King Khan over non-actor Lallu. Even Indicine accepted that SRK is the most succesful actor ever.

    @Indicine- I haven’t written anything using abusive language. So kindly read it and post it.

  • So this is the gift that this criminal offered to his FATHER on the occasion of FATHER’S DAY.

    he entered to industry through Papa depite having no talent in ACTING,and now is clearing each and every major issues like—-yaku Menon,this one and many with the help of his PAPA.

    SALIM SIR,you’re the reason why your criminal son is still wandering freely.otherwise people would have buried him much earlier in the early 90’s when he was committed his 1st crime.

    This India’s most wanted criminal’s long list of sins,crimes is never ending.

    And more than this criminal,his wicked antisocial criminal fanbase is much more dangerous whose work is to ride rikshaw in day time and commenting WOMEN and playing with their respect in evening and night time.

    salman still seems a very good man and innocent compared to his illiterate bhojpuri fanbase.

    @tiger-the real chuha,don’t give inspire list.give direct copy-paste lists if you’re the child of one FATHER.

  • Father trying to hide son’s arrogance will the people of India who chose to boycott SRK’s film for a small intolerance remark boycott SULTAN i hope they do and teach this arrogant kid some lesson even at 50 he thinks he is the SULTAN of India make his movie a flop show him that all those who fly high have to come down one day he is no exception
