Salman Khan, Shilpa Shetty summoned for derogatory comment.

Bollywood actor Salman Khan and actress
Shilpa Shetty have reportedly been
summoned by the deputy SP of Rajasthan's
Churu district, Hukum Singh, for allegedly
using the word bhangi' and hurting the
sentiments of Valmiki community. Film
analyst Komal Nahta has also been
summoned in this regard.
Last month, a complaint was also registered
against the actors in connection with the
matter, in Mumbai. The National Commission
for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) had also sought
replies from the Information and
Broadcasting Ministry and the police
commissioners of Delhi and Mumbai over
the issue after it received a complaint from
an ex-chairman of the Delhi Commission for
Safai Karamcharis, Harnam Singh.
Salman had used the word during the
promotion of his film Tiger Zinda Hai, while
referring to his dancing skills. Shilpa had
reportedly used the word to describe how
she looks at home.

If it is really a casteist slur and if the term is derogatory to lower castes then they must issue an apology and end the controversy. Period.

Nobody is offended by rapes, but by something which was used in a different context you can't even open your mouth there now
