Mumbai: In a recent
interview, Salman Khan reportedly made a shocking statement that has sent
social media in a tizzy. During his interaction with entertainment website
spotboye.com, Salman was asked about his experience of playing a wrestler in
his upcoming film Sultan, and he said that he felt like a “raped woman”.
“While shooting, during
those six hours, there’d be so much of lifting and thrusting on the ground
involved. That was tough for me because if I was lifting, I’d have to lift the
same 120-kilo guy ten times for ten different angles. And likewise, get thrown
that many times on the ground. This act is not repeated that many times in the
real fights in the ring.” “When I used to walk out of the ring, after the
shoot, I used to feel like a raped woman. I couldn’t walk straight. I would eat
and then, head right back to training. That couldn’t stop,” he was quoted as
saying.
However, his comment about
feeling like a raped woman does not seem to have gone down well with many of
his fans. Many took to Twitter to criticize the actor’s comment.
“Did #SalmanKhan Just
Compare Himself To A Raped Woman? The Man Has Completely Lost It,” said Twitter
user Beena (@beena_jon). Another Twitter user Vande Mataram, said that
“Bollywood has an opinion on everything. Just not on the sick insensitivity of
one of their own”.
The actor’s manager said
that he has been misquoted. Salman’s insensitive comment hasn’t gone well with
fans and he is now on the bitter end of the criticism.
