but its exactly the opposite. There is intolerance among the general public in india but the khans havnt faced any of it. There have been protests over the past couple of months but i think thats cuz people put a lot of faith in srk and aamir and they felt betrayed by their comments. They have been put on a pedestal in india over the past decades . This is despite the fact they have not done anything of significance over the past years except aamir khan. shahrukh and salman have been churning out terrible films and still been applauded. salman despite having no acting skills is the biggest star in india.
The khans are actually given more than what they deserve while other good actors have been ignored. look at award shows, khan movies are always nominated but movies like drishyam, baby, massan are ignored. movies like jai ho, bajrangi,pk all had gotten tax free status in many states but movies like holiday,baby arnt although they are more patriotic.

So although there might be intolerance in india , khans have never faced it. They have actually benefitted from being khans. so aamir and srk had no right to say what they did

First of all this 'intolerant' issue started by Congress because whoever returned awards are congress supporters.
Secondly...Hindus are expected to tolerate everything their mouth shut and eyes/ears closed. The moment Hindus say anything or do anything ..they are INTOLERANT but it absolutely fine if others insult Hindu sentiments.
Those people who always come forward with concerns about " intolerance in India ' what they have to say about conditions of non Muslims in countries ruled by Muslims?
I think human rights and tolerance etc. is only applicable in places like India, US, Europe and Canada. People who complain the most about human rights & tolerance in these places are those who do not know even the meaning of human rights and tolerance. Instead of being thankful to the country for giving shelter and great life, they want to change everything that country stands for and bring it down to their level but Unfortunately they get easy way everywhere they go because of high tolerance from great people.

what salman got to do with this topic ?? and what exactly is the topic ?

salman is the only khan ,who gave a perfect answer saying as follows :

when one asked whether he thinks there's intolerance in the country, Salman threw the question back at her. "You tell me, you are the from the press. You tell me. Do you think intolerance in increasing?" Salman asked the reporter.
The reporter said, "I don't think so. The atmosphere is created like that." Salman replied, "When you know it's all being created, then why are you recreating it? Why are we discussing it? You are doing it. They created there. You are creating it here."

to add on, I still feel srk was wrongly targeted because he didnt really say much. But it was really stupid of aamir to say that he doesnt feel safe living in his own country. How can you say that about a country that has given you so much. I can understand a common man saying that but not aamir.

It's not a religion or people who belong to that religion are all intolerant. Those who refer to themselves as the religion themselves or feel that religion is above humanity, they are intolerant in nature.
First when people used to ask me about my religion, I used to say I am an Indian but now I don't even say that and say I am a human. I just dislike these comparisons between one religion and country and gender. They don't matter at all as what matters is whether you are a Good Human or a Bad Human.

It has been proved time and again that there is no Freedom of Speech anywhere and no humanity as well.

not that he said anything but salmans career really shows how tolerant india has been towards its movie stars. He keeps making these terrible brainless movies and the indian audience still keeps accepting them. most movies shouldnt even cross 50 crores. He might be a great human but so are so many other actors who cant even cross 10 crs
