Salman Khan has made yet another controversial statement that has resulted in yet another major outrage on social media websites like Twitter and Facebook.
A section of the media and fans of the actor have said that Salman was ‘misquoted’. But the truth of the matter is, Salman wasn’t ‘misquoted’, he did say “felt like a raped woman” but he also said ”I shouldn’t have said that” almost immediately.
It’s easy to take media interactions lightly, more so because there are hundreds that place during a promotional campaign of a film. But social media outrage is a reality in today’s times and actor’s need to be extremely careful.
Like we’ve already seen with the ‘intolerance’ comment by Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan, one sentence from an hour long interview can be highlighted, played repeatedly, misquoted and blown out of proportions across all ‘sensation seeking’ news channels.
Even a slip of tongue or something that you don’t mean to say, can land you in what’s being called as ‘Twitter outrage’.
Here’s exactly what Salman Khan said “You look like a fraud, if you’ve not trained properly. You need to put in as many hours (in training) as any other wrestler does. That we’ve done. But when we were shooting, those 6 hours of fighting and throwing each other around, that is unbelievable (very difficult). I’ve got to pick up a 120 kilo person and drop him down.. I’ve got to do it 10 times. In a wrestling match, it happens once or twice. (But here) 10 times from 5 different angles.”
“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…. I don’t think I should have said that…. I couldn’t take steps, it was very difficult.. ” Salman said.
The media cannot really be blamed for ‘misquoting’ Salman, because he actually did say that it felt like a ‘raped woman walking out’, but should he be forgiven for immediately realising his mistake after what looked like a ‘slip of tongue’?
But @ANK.. don’t you think you only get disappointed when you expect better from a person? If SRK or Aamir had said this.. extremely disappointed would be the right response..
But this guy is illiterate.. doesn’t know how to talk or behave. One day he supports Yakub Menon who was directly responsible in killing hundreds of people and next day he’ll go to his girlfriends house and beat her up.
He even wrecked the sets of Chalte Chalte after which SRK asked Aishwarya to quite and signed Rani.
This moron has a long history of criminal cases, disrespect towards women.. so there is nothing to be disappointed.
Box office success can never make you a good human being.
The difference between an illiterate and literate man is that an educated man first thinks and then speaks whereas an uneducated man only speaks as he does not have any brains that’s salman for u an illiterate,senseless and insensitive man
What is bhai’s educational qualification? Does anyone know? Has he passed 5th grade?
A man who has adopted the daily needs of so many girls who were homeless and suffered from extreme poverty…he has settled the lives of 600 girls who used to live on roads…nd not only has he provided them livelyhood but has also given them the dignity of his sisters and got them married fulfiling a brother’s responsiblity….nd the cheap media is trying to defame his image by misquoting his statement nd not covering the apology part…shame
@Tarun-
Buddy , SRK said there is intolerance in India. This statement is different from what you are making out with hate that india in intolerant. Its similar like we say “There is corruption in India”which does’t make India as corrupt country. Stop generalizing and manipulating their statement from your perspective to created hatred against these stars.
You all don’t criticize many public figures who have said similar statement from Nayaranmurthy to Raghuram Rajan to many other public celebrities including politicians. These people are never asked or being told to go to other countries or calling them anti-national or traitors. Its a big hypocrisy .
Lol. Salman haters are in full form today.
Shows his mentality!
Looks like He must have had a hell of a lot of experience in watching a Raped woman walking…! Cheap Hero
Now indicine become the official Hate club of Salman ! Great going keep spread negativity for Salman
He the criminal, Arrogant, non actor now illicit relationship person is thinking as he is the only superstar in Bollywood. He was nobody before Wanted, he forgot his old days. Let’s show him his real aukaat.
# Boycott Sultan
There is nothing new in this news.
A convicted criminal (yes, case is still pending in rhe apex court so I have all the rights to use this term), who has a long history of assaulting the woman and other oppressed communities can’t talk anything better.
This again shows the cheap mentality of this illiterate. He is the most dumb and illiterate actor India has ever seen.
Why does the media support this criminal……let’s see woman beater, drunk driving, motor mouth, he should be sent to jail
Salman khan is the one who is arrogant, selfish, criminal, above of all he has no respect for others especially for women.
#Boycott Sultan
It is definitely slip of tongue, but it doesn’t mean he should have said that.
Nowadays, it’s like “Salman controversies ke peeche, controversies Salman ke peeche. Too much drama.”
I feel sad for salman sometimes bcoz most of his fans have so much pride coz of box office collections of his films in the last 6-7 years.They keep bullying other actor’s fans coz of his box office achievements but the day his films start underperforming these egoistic fans may leave him alone.
And the sad part is, Salim Khan – a person with high intellectual and moral values, seems to be turning out another ‘Sonia Gandhi’. Like Sonia defends her dumb product, in the same way, whenever his (Salim’s) beloved son makes a controversial statement,he will be the first one to defend the same.
Come on sir, at least have some respect for your age and experience and don’t poke your nose in all those matters which involve your son. It’s necessary for you to act as an unofficial lawyer of your son.
With all controversy megastar Salman rules bollywd
small star fans shud thank all controversy he creates..otherwise they favrites wil b far far behind
Poor upbringing, low moral values, no respect for women, convicted in couple of cases and on top of that, lots of ego (Arijit’s case is a recent example).
And then his illiterate fans dare to criticise and question SRK.
The day this illiterate will achieve even half of intellect and humour of what SRK possesses, I’ll stop writing against him.
With all these controversies Megastar salman gives a 40cr opening
now without that he can easily give a 60cr opening
Why do people of India still watch this idiot’s films in theatre?
If you people have any shame,then boycott Sultan.
And watch better films like mohenjodaro and shivaay.Try to make these 2 films as highest grosser of the year.
@Sridhar 03:08 on : spot on !!!!
It’s a faux pas and the nation will RIP him apart … always a case of too much ado about everything the 3 khans say
Salman tweets about acquittal of Yakub :
Illiterate fans : Bhai Bhai – Bhai Bhai
Salman tortures and harasses Aish , both physically as well as mentally :
Illiterate fans : Bhai Bhai – Bhai Bhai
Salman thrashes people with his car while he was drunk :
Illiterate fans : Bhai Bhai – Bhai Bhai
And now,
Salman passes an utterly shameless remark, which doesn’t have any place in a sane society.
Still,
Illiterate fans : Bhai Bhai – Bhai Bhai
Shame on you morons. Go amd Bang your head somewhere, because your idol always puts you in trouble and then you all always come with excuses like “conspiracy of media”, “Bhai was not driving the car , but it was in auto mode”, “Black buck wanted to commit suicide and thus he came in front of our beloved bhaijan” etc etc.
Keep supporting this eunuch and he will keep bringing enough moments to put your heads down in shame.
Lol controversy means profit for sultan
But now I have a million dollar question and hope someone will address this.
How on this earth does he know the ‘feelings’ of a raped woman?
I personally feel that there could be only two reasons:
1. If someone close to him would have faced such unfortunate incident.
2. If he himself was ganged banged by Shera (and his Team of bouncers).
God alone knows which one of the above two points, is true.
Whenever Bhai says something media goes gaga over it. Because the name SALMAN bikta Hain!
Salman has got the blessings of lakhs of people he helped thats y he is still shining…some dick heads will bark and pretend to b blind
what to do these days people have same mentality and so does Salman…
for him a ‘Tiring day== Raped woman’
legend for a reason ;)
We can also take the sentence positive way. The line clearly indicates that Bhai feels the pain of women. But loggerheaded morons take it negatively!!!
if he has not apologised yet then the intention is clear as controversy can benefit his movie Sultan
