controversy. A new application has been
filed against Salman Khan and Shilpa Shetty
for passing a derogatory comment against
a particular community.
An application has been filed in Mumbai's
Bhoiwada court for making casteist
comment in a TV show while promoting
Tiger Zinda Hai.
The Kick actor had used the word Bhangi'
as he referred to his dancing skills during a
promotional event for Tiger Zinda Hai in a
TV show. Whereas Shilpa had used the
word to describe how she looks at home.
The application is filed under sections
156(3) of the CrPC seeking FIR under
section 295 of the IPC and section 3 (1) (s)
of the SC / ST act.
Earlier, even film analyst Komal Nahta too
was summoned for the same. After the first
complaint was lodged, Shilpa Shetty had
tweeted, "Some of my words from an
interview in the past have been
misinterpreted. It was never said with the
intent of hurting anyone's feelings... I
apologize if they have. I'm proud to belong
to a country that boasts of diverse castes
and creeds and I respect each one of
them.
