Salman Khan is out on bail. The 52-year superstar got some relief in the notorious black buck killings case till the next hearing on May 7th. Hardly has Bhai landed in Mumbai, and sister Arpita Khan has this message to share with the world where she has slammed Salman haters. Salman's youngest sister, shared a photo of Salman on her Instagram account, and posted a rather touching message.
"My Strength , My Weakness , My Pride , My Joy , My Life , My World. Gods Child. God bless all the people that can't handle you or your success, I wish only positivity & happiness for you may all the jealousy & negativity fade away. I pray you shine even brighter than u are & blind everyone with your success & good deeds. Love you Bhai."
While we understand the sister love expressed here by Arpita, it goes without saying that Salman Khan haters are not exactly vicious people. In fact, these folks are honest in their opinion and they are showing remarkable courage to go against the tide. Why would anyone take panga with one of the most powerful and influential superstars who has crores of Rupees riding on him, unless one is honest and doesn't give a damn? These haters are seeking justice. The so called Sallu haters firmly believe that the Law should be equal for all and no one should be spared when convicted, even if one happens to be a superstar.
The case in point is Sona Mohapatra. She was slammed for being a Salman hater. "So...will daddy say sorry on his behalf? What will the suck-ups in the industry do? When's bail? When's the next block buster release? Dabangg 'concert' tour dates? Bigg Boss? Charity drives." she had tweeted.
Sona took a dig at Salman Khan's writer father Salim Khan, who almost always comes to his son's rescue with his bhaashan, every time Bhai does some gadbad! She also questioned Salman's giant concerts which can shift the focus from his black buck poaching news to something fanciful, sooner than later. If not anything else, then Salman Khan can always resort to showcasing his goodie boy 'Being human' image with his charitable causes to acquire the much-needed bail! The argument does hold water, doesn't it?
But isn't Sona stating the obvious truth here with courage, even when entire Bollywood is running at Salman's house to stay in Bhai's good books? If that makes Sona a Salman hater, so be it. If that makes her an opportunistic who is seeking to be in the headlines, so be it. (If not now when should she open her mouth to talk about Salman Khan and how Indian judiciary with its feeble laws, as reported, is exercised irregularly and possibly irresponsibly)
In another instance Bollywood hottie Sofia Hayat posted a video on her Instagram expressing how happy she is that Salman has been convicted and that justice prevails in the country. As expected, it didn't go down too well with the Bhai fans and they started making rape threats in the comments. Now isn't this brave of Hyat to state the brutal truth!
Arpita must understand that the so called Salman Khan haters are human too. In fact they are just 'Being Human' by urging to exercise the law of the land. Justice must prevail as opposed to an idea where a superstar should remain untouched by the judiciary just because he has positioned himself in a uniquely good way!
