Bollywood superstar Salman Khan recently made a statement that caught many by surprise.
While being tried under the Arms Act in relation with poaching of the endangered Black Buck species, the magistrate asked Salman to fill the caste column to which the actor said “I am an Indian”
The judge then said “There is a column which needs to be filled so you will have to tell.” To which Salman said “I am both Hindu and Muslim. My father is a Muslim and mother is Hindu.”

The incident happened during the shoot of the film ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’, when Salman and a few other stars from the movie had allegedly gone hunting on the 1st of October, 1998. Salman is also accused of carrying illegal arms with him.
The actor was told to appear in court on 23rd April by the magistrate, but could not do so because he was getting treated for an ear infection.

@iamkhan, sometimes i vote, sometimes if i don’t find any candidates good, i don’t. So according to your logic that makes me a non-indian? Lol.
There are lot of reasons that a person vote or doesn’t vote. Also, in our country there is no option of rejecting all the candidates if even majority of voters opts for NOTA (none of the other) option on the voting machine.
So if you have all corrupt people standing in the same constituency, you cannot reject them, so better stay away from it.
@Marshall : absolutely correct i find haters only in media in real world its different the box office collection proved over and over again haters gone hate we love salman khan forever and ever.
@iamakn Salman was in Poland during the voting and srk was in Mumbai only and remember srk said that when if Modi,wins then i will leave India so ask ur king to pack your bags and leave the country
Salman khan always set examples latest one is he adopt one poor family from Kashmir.
Bas bhaijan ke sare gunah maaf…
Bhad me gaya black buck.. Bhad me gye footpath wale log..bhaijan jindabad..
The brand ambassador of humanity.. Vo Rajasthan ke farmers aur Nepal quake victims ko abi tak charity nhi di but don’t worry. Bajrangi bhaijaan ke release ke aas paas unhe humanity dikha denge..
He should have said that he is a human, since Rosen above caste should also rise above nationality. Above all he also owns and endorsees being human!!
That’s why we love Salman Khan
those who still critisizing salman on this post…. n call them srk fans or watever…this is insult to srk…n insult to humanity too…its just outcome of cheap ideology..
You are not hindi dont give statement for publicity he know he is guilty therefore he is trying to take support from public , you should be punished Arrogent .
look at these frustated srk fans they judge themselves that salman is criminal. niether my father is muslim nor my mother but i am a complete human.
@ babaji@ all haters this is nt new thing salman said…this is salmans stand from whole life u can go n check wikipedia…his mom sushila charak.. marathi hindu…dad pathan…he is both hindu n muslim n done humanity work which will make feel proud to all hindu muslim indian or watevr…he is jst a great soal like many of us,..dnt paint it red or green…. now hater can start barking his pending cases.,,bla ..bla…
Somebody said that sarook speaks from heart… Lol…sarook is an unoriginal garbage
@ salman haters – yes he has muslim name so what its not his fault what he said it is his spirit’s feelings and remember spirits dont have religion.
i can see some one on the name of akshay posting comments against salman which looks fake to me. we all know that akshay and salman are good friends. as a salman fan we respect akshay fans and ignore this fake ID.
@suraj salman said this atleast 20years ago also he has muslim father hindu mother christian step mother his religion is human so stop this nonsense salman has more followers than modi or bjp in every corner of india.
also he said this in court not infront of media salman don,t need this cheap publicity.
Great man great human being love u salman
Salman is a biggest superstar of indian cinema
He said like that to earn some sympathy from Modiji,i respect every religion and their thoughts,bt i am a muslim.in Salman case,he is nor hindu neither muslim,just like the cross breeds of horse and donkey
@i am an idiot
When did Voting show allegiance to your country….? BOYCOTTING elections can just as easily show your passion for your country by stating that the main candidates are all alike n you are completely fed up off their repetitive historical failings n scandals n self indulgence etc etc etc
Get a sense of reality or get lost back to pakistan mr asad khan nanga..,
@syed
Being a muslim you judge others…. thought ONLY Allah could judge or did you skip that religious teaching n instead were busy watching porn sorry Sunny Leone online in secret….!
For the record I respect both Sarkar n Salman for setting a good example as both respect all muslim n hindu religious occasions n this is pleasing to see as I myself want to see more ppl respecting all religious occasions n not be so shallow like respect my god n religion ONLY….
But ofcourse the syeds n asad khan nangawales of this world claim to follow the same God but adopt their own twisted perverse interpretations of holy scriptures n criticize other openly minded individuals… poor fellows who should be (RIGHTLY) judged harshly by their GOD….!
thats our bhaijaan…..
luv him for that reason…
not like anti-indian srk
Both syed n asad khan nanga have muslim names but are practicing anything but ISLAM…. hypocrites
Ppl can shoot me down for this but I think its obvious that so many muslims who have muslim names n are proud muslims but sadly it seems ISLAM to them is a different religion altogether….. theres advocating and then theres practicing… not just picking on afew as the same rule applies to so many hindus who also dont practice hinduism just think saying I AM HINDU is suffice to please God… such people pose the biggest threat to humanity n global integration as their uneducated ill advised manipulated interpretations of religions is shockingly perverse.
@kShitij sri waste of space
For the record I think you arent just an idiot with great treacherous powers n high degree of manipulative skills to give wrong numbers consistently to devotees bcoz on top of that you are also ill informed about facts/ events- both Salmans sisters arent muslims despite having muslim names so them marrying hindu guys isnt that shocking like you wanting to marry nipun…. I think Sohail is a fully blown christian but arbaaz is more like Salman but as a family on the whole they are multi religious so good for them.
Good thinking salman… U r great
@akshay
you r a kshay kumar hater for sure.u used that name for a purpose but we r not idiots we got u
I am proud because i am bangali
nationality &Religion are 2 different things. this is the fact and no one should deny this. a true Hindi will not say I am Hindu and Muslim and Same For Muslim. a true muslim can not call himself Hindu. So be clear He is not Muslim , it’s just his name. but this is shame full that even at the age of 50 u don’t know ur own religion. And u don’t have a courage to declare herself a Muslim or Hindu. So coward act. Not Heroic..felt bad.
