The megastar Salman Khan recently made an appearance as a guest on the second season of his brother Arbaaz Khan’s talk show, Pinch. The show aired on Wednesday. The format of the show involves Arbaaz hurling insulting tweets at his guests in order to elicit a reaction from them.
Arbaaz Khan before reading the mean comments admitted that many comments on social media are positive but a few of them are extremely mean. Among those mean trolls, one user had presumably posted last year and suggested that Salman Khan has a secret family in Dubai, complete with a wife and a 17-year-old daughter.
The user commented, “Kahan chhupa baitha hai darpok. Bharat mein sab jaante hain ke tu Dubai mein apni biwi Noor aur 17 saal ki beti ke saath hai. Bharat ke log ko kab tak murkh banaiga (Where are you hiding, you coward? All of India knows you’re in Dubai with your wife and 17-year-old daughter. How much longer will you try to fool us)?”
Salman was initially taken aback. Then he went ahead to reply and said, “This is for who?” he said. When Arbaaz assured him that the comment had indeed been directed at him, Salman said in Hindi, “These people are very well-informed. This is all rubbish. I don’t know whom they’ve spoken about, and where they’ve posted. Does this person really think I’m going to dignify them with a response? Brother, I don’t have a wife. I live in India, at Galaxy Apartments, since the age of nine. I’m not going to respond to this person, all of India knows where I live).”
Arbaaz Khan, talking about his show said it is, “bigger and bolder”. He also had informed in an interview that he intentionally didn’t invite Salman Khan in the first season of his show because he wanted the show to succeed on its own terms.
