Oops! 7 times when Salman Khan was accused for no reason!

Saifai Controversy!

Salman Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Alia Bhatt and may more received a lot of criticism for performing at the Saifai festival in Uttar Pradesh held in the year 2014. At the same time, the Muzzaffar Nagar riots were in the discussion. Salman was then blamed for performing at the festivals instead of helping thousands of people affected in the riot-hit area. Salman then defended himself by saying that he was just doing his job. He was paid to perform at the event and Salman along with other celebrities did whatever was expected of them. His NGO 'Being Human' did it's bit to help the people who suffered because of the riots but, his act being criticised was completely uncalled for.

A bad friend!

Preity Zinta rose to limelight when she accused her long time boyfriend and business honcho Ness Wadia for physical abusing her. She had filed a case against Ness stating that he used to physically assault her by throwing burning cigarettes on her and more. But when Preity and Ness were attacking each other with accusations, it was someone else too who grabbed the attention and yes we are talking about Salman Khan. We know that Salman and Preity are really good friends. So much that the handsome hunk recently threw a birthday bash for her. But, when this incident took place, Salman, was unnecessarily accused of not being a good friend. It so happened that in one of the media interaction session Salman refused to comment on Preity-Ness relationship and that's when the rumours spread out that their friendship has gone kaput. He was then accused of not supporting his good friend when in need. That's not true we all know!

Ganesh Puja, a crime?

In the year 2008, Salman Khan attended the aarti ceremony at Mumbai's well known Ganesh Pandal, Lal Baug. But, this act of his was criticised and we wonder why! Many celebrities reach the Ganesh Pandal to seek God's blessings for a smooth and peaceful year ahead but, Salman was the one who got into trouble because of this. A Fatwa was issued against the star stating that he would not be considered a Muslim as Muslims do not believe in Idol Worship. To this controversy, Salman Khan's father had a very strong opinion. He was then quoted saying, "If these are Muslims then I don't want to be called a Muslim. I want to know how these people are qualified to issue a fatwa against my son. I don't think people who have issued a fatwa against Salman have anything to do with Islam; they don't even know their religion well. Don't they know that the Koran says ' sab ka khuda ek '?" There's nothing wrong when someone becomes a part of a religion other than his, right? And, it's Salman Khan.He hails from a family which is an amalgamation of different religions so what was the problem? Just unnecessarily dragging his name into a controversy does not make sense!

When Salman Khan met PM!

During the release of his film 'Jai Ho,' Salman Khan apparently met Narendra Modi when he was in Gujarat for the promotions of his film. He had a good time with Narendra Modi as the two were seen chit chatting with each other followed by a kite-flying session. But this act of Salman Khan did not go down well with some of the members of Muslim community. We are aware the riots which took place in Gujarat in the year 2002 and Narendra Modi's association with this incidence. Mr. PM was blamed for not protecting Muslims in the community when the riot broke out. So, when Salman Khan met Narendra Modi some of the people accused him of betraying his community. We bet Salman had no intention to hurt any sentiments of any community. He was there to promote his film and he did it!

A biased host, really?

No doubt that Salman Khan has been the most favorite host of television till date. The TRP's of the most controversial show of Indian Television 'Bigg Boss' reach the sky only because of Salman Khan. But, this fun loving acts of Salman which are extremely entertaining have many a times called in for a controversy for the star. Salman has been time and again accused of being biased on the show without any strong evidence. Just on assumptions, Salman has suffered the wrath of the audience and critics for being partial on the show. This trend started when Kajol's sister Tanisha Mukherjee featured in 'Bigg Boss' in the year 2013. People went on a rampant on social media then accusing Mr. Bhaijaan of favouring her unnecessarily just because she belongs to a filmy family. Again it was just baseless and Salman gave his clarification too!

Godfather act gone wrong!

We all know that Salman Khan has acted as Godfather for many Bollywood heroes. He has been an inspiration for many and has opened the gates to a successful Bollywood journey for many stars by giving them their first break. So is the case of Sooraj Pancholi. Unfortunately, before even making an entry in the industry, Aditya Pancholi's son got mired in a controversy following his girlfriend Jiah Khan's death. Sooraj Pancholi then suffered the worst phase of his life as he was accused of killing Jiah Khan by her mother. But, was Salman Khan spared out of this controversy? No! Jiah Khan's mother Rabiya Khan accused Salman of supporting her daughter's murderer that is Sooraj Pancholi, according to her. She had then said that Salman and his legal team are doing every bit to extricate Sooraj from this case so that they can ensure his smooth entry in Bollywood. Rabiya Khan also claimed that it was Salman who pressurised Sooraj to break-up with Jiah Khan which in turn led her daughter to commit suicide. To this Salman was then quoted saying, "I was not even aware of Suraj and Jiah`s relationship. I got to know of it through a news magazine." Salman had also clarified that he has his own problems to deal with and does not have time to interfere in someone else's life. We agree!

The mastermind behind RK-Kat break-up?

The most favorite topic of the tinsel town currently is that of Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif's break-up. But, the most interesting part in this break-up saga is that of Salman Khan's association with this split. It's just not Ranbir and Katrina who have grabbed the limelight because of their split but, even Salman is being target by the people for playing a major role in this 'split-story.' He is the prime accused of being the reason for Katrina ending her 6-year long relationship with the Kapoor lad. Is it need? The answer is the a definite No! Even though Salman and Katrina were romantically involved with each other, post break-up, they have been good friends and a good friend can be concerned for his good friend, right?
