There is a lot of misinterpretation - sad to say. No one here had said that they hate Salman or he is the worst dancer on DID - if it was the case, I would have agreed with the posts. Many who choose Jai or Alisha or Siddhesh or Mayuresh over Salman have their taste and opinions, and all of them ackowledge that Salman is a good dancer and would like to see him in top 4 or 5, but they like their choice to win. What's wrong with that - arent everyone entitled to have a pick and support his or her choice - the same way Salman fans are doing?? In that case, every other contestant's fans should blame others for not picking their choice as the best - Jai's fans should blame everyone who are not picking him as hating him, and the same would apply for Siddhesh fans, Prince fans, Alisha fans, and so on. Hope you got my logic clear now.
It's Salman fans who are bringing region and religion factors into discussions, if you havent noticed. It's stupid to make assumptions that people who dont have Salman as first choice are doing so because they hate him or because of his region or religion - that's like crying wolf! It's emotional blackmail if you didnt know. The more you do that, the more people will start to distant from Salman, even those who didnt mind him being in the top and winning - you are turning them off with biased statements.
I like Salman for a bunch of reasons, but he is not my first choice. But I will pick him any day above Prince, Sunita, Khushboo, Bhavna and all. So now if their fans are going to tell me that's because I hate them, I have to say tough luck. Okay, they cannot use religion to blackmail me as I have picked my tpo choices from the same religion - that's where Salman fans made the wrong conclusion - it's not our fault that the show had only one from his region and religion. We could have made the statement on hate only if we had someone else with the same factors to compare with - did you get my point?
If you havent noticed, the same folks whom you think hate Salman has over and over mentioned how he is being overshadowed by not being picked for the LnP challenge, for not being given outstanding choreography, for making him do body shows and lifts instead of dance, etc etc. When they say that, a new tag will be given to them instantly - Remo haters! C'mon people, grow up and think straight! Everyone has the freedom to pick and have an opinion, and trying to force something else for either one would only backfire!!
