With the ongoing uproar on Twitter about Salman Khan’s ‘raped woman’ comment, his stony silence on the issue, and his father’s apology on his behalf, it seems as though those coming out in support of Khan have nothing to offer except he is ‘Bhai’.
His comment, which was an answer to a question about his training and hard work for his upcoming film, ‘Sultan’, went like this:
I’d have to lift the same 120-kilo guy 10 times for 10 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.
