His wisecracks or his run-ins with the universally accepted norms of social demeanour notwithstanding, it is hard to ignore the kind of hold Abdul Rashid Salim Salman Khan has over the masses and how they react to him. Salman Khan’s films (that he happens to conquer with, every Eid) generate the same hysteria and frenzy as do constant rumours of his marital status.
The 51-year-old seems to have a love hate relationship with the media - whom he completely avoided in the aftermath of a controversial comment - at a recently held award function. To that controversy, Salman did open up eventually and said, “It is sad. And it confuses me. If I don’t say anything I am boring. If I say something then it becomes an issue and my people won’t like it. Yes, maybe I shouldn’t have said it, but I have a very bad knack for being misunderstood.”
Controversy’s Favourite Child
Salman Khan and controversy going hand in hand is not news. The reactions to his being in the news range from the obvious strong to the banal ‘not against’. Salman Khan is also known for his filmy language and a heart of gold. I have myself been eyewitness to him exchanging his Seven For All Mankind jeans with an ordinary pair because he needed it for a film role. On another instance, he gave his cycle (on which he had just travelled from home to a studio) to a spotboy. Tales of his magnanimity are the stuff that legends are made up of. Not only this, but the actor has also helped several newbies establish their careers in Bollywood. Himesh Reshammiya, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Sajid-Wajid were brought into the industry thanks to Salman Khan’s help. Currently, he is mentoring Vaibhav Anand (son of late Vijay Anand), Rinzing (Son of Danny Denzongpa) and Ali (son of Raza Murad). He is also often known as the ‘Bollywood launch pad’.
It is perhaps for this reason that even Salman’s controversies don’t dent the deity like adulation he gets from his fans.
