This man is beyond repair...He brought Kushal's father in and made fun of him too...really?? Salman Khan is beyond repair...SHAME ON HIM..tsk tsk...

LOL BI.. you should see the episode first before getting all riled up.

Salman only brought up Kushal's father because Kushal was bragging about his dad's voting arrangements on the show. He said his father reached out to his 200-300k 'friends' asking them to vote for him and plus his PR is working on getting more votes. Now if you are hosting a show where public voting drives everything, I think it's your responsibility as a host to put this out there. Especially so, when there is live-feed and people are watching.

About Salman advocating Sachin Joshi. When Sachin and Sunny came into BB, it was Sunny who started the controlling comment as to how it looks to the viewers as if Kushal and Eijaz are being controlled by Gauhar. When the trio didn't understand Sunny, Sachin clarified and said they come off as her puppets. Frankly speaking, it appears the same way to me. Anywho, once the guests left the show, Eijaz and Kushal were pissed and called him names and said how he only said that because Sachin is Gauhar's ex BF's tight friend.

You be the judge. However, I dont think it's going to change your view. Once you start to dislike/like someone, irrespective of what the reality is, we are driven towards what our preconceived notions are.

I would personally love to send a copy of this article to Salman Khan. Kudos to the writer and thank you for posting.

I don't have a problem with Salman rest of the year but he truly grinds my f**king gears on Big Boss. He is arrogant, rude, high handed, obnoxious, biased as f**k towards his favorites, hateful as f**k to those who have an opinion. He is basically the anti thesis of everything a sane, rational host should be.This man needs to be booted off from the show for good 🤢

+1 👏

It is hillarious how Salman points out about Kushal's PR back up as if he has none. 😆 Everybody has a PR backup especially mister Khan. Thts how he cleans his image in media every now and then. So lets stop accusing people for having a mind,. Salman is no exception to this game.

I think the problem in India is that we do not separate the character' and actor' from each other. I find this the case with both Salman fanatics and his bashers.

As an actor, I do like Salman Khan. He isn't brilliant in any way. He is quite ordinary. However, he does have a pulse on what the common people and caters. I will always enjoy his mindless entertainers like Dabangg. I even look forward to Jai Ho because his movie presence has a strange panache and entertaining quality that others don't.

That being said, Salman as a person is a completely different story. Despite the fact that I watch and enjoy his movies, I don't see the need to defend him on every occasion - nor do I think everything he does is right, good and beautiful. Salman is just a human being. I do appreciate his charity work a lot. I also think he is a nice person by nature. At the same time he has a sense of cocky arrogance. He behaves like a petulant child who doesn't like people disagreeing with him. He has is favorite people and has no qualms showing favoritism, even when he has to be a neutral host in Big Boss. He is to egotistic about his crowd favorite, beloved of the masses tag and behaves as if his popularity gives him a mandate to be partial and biased - "It is Ok for me to pick on Gauhar/Kushal while I merely gently chide Tanisha/Armaan. Most people love me, most people support me, which is why majority of people will back my decisions". He has a childish streak to him where if anyone crosses his path he ruins things for them. It isn't the outright mean spirited vengeance, but more of an immature whim - I don't like this person, so all my friends, family, fans, loved ones should cut this person out in support of me - in the film industry it turns out to be the ruining of a career. All his transgressions, politically incorrect statements, misogynist remarks get a pass because his fans won't allow a single question against him and he rides on that wave and take advantage. I'm not going to go too much into the elephant in the room - that no ordinary person would get easy passes for drunk driving deaths and illegal hunting.

Fans have to realize that enjoying his movies doesn't mean you have to back Salman and stand by his side for all eternity. You can enjoy his films, watch it a million times, copy his moves - and still hold him accountable. Treat him like you would any human. Praise the good, criticize the flaws. At the same time Salman bashers also have to realize it is OK if people enjoy his role as entertainer, as long as they don't go gaga over his transgressions and crimes. Despite me not supporting Salman the person and admitting his flaws, sometimes bashers make me feel as if I don't have the right to enjoy his films.

Umm No, Sachin did not clarify. Sunny said Gauhar really tries to shut up Kushal, Aijaz when they start their fights. Sachin said, she is trying to say you control them. Both Sunny and Gauhar said no to this and said she was not trying to say that. Despite that Sachin added his puppet comment. This was no way Sunny idea, it was all Sachin's mind. No guest who has ever come into the house and have ever passed such comments on the contestants. That was insulting to both Kushal and Aijaz. Imagine if some guest had called Tanisha doormat on her face, I dont think Salman would have extended the same courtesy to those guests.

I share the exact sentiments...I'm mostly indifferent to Salman for most part of the year, infact I do enjoy some of his movies, they are quite entertaining tbh and then BB happens 😆 He is bearable for the first few weeks and suddenly everything goes for a toss and I can't help but shower him with all sorts of colorful profanities lol and this season has got to be the worst of the lot and Salman's favoritism is just so effing hard to digest...but I know both me and him will be back on track once BB is over and done with 😉😆
