Summary

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has broken his silence on the relentless online criticism he has faced concerning his age and weight. In a recent episode of Bigg Boss, Khan addressed the issue while reacting to a confrontation between contestants ScoutOP and Arishfa Khan.
He questioned the mindset driving such online harassment, stating, 'What is the mentality? Mere upar bhi hua tha, bhai mota hogaya hai, lo kar lo na troll.' Khan further elaborated that comments on weight, looks, or failures are a reflection of the commenter's own upbringing. He pointed out that age had become a significant talking point, with trolls frequently calling him 'old.'
During the episode, Khan demonstrated his frustration by discarding his jacket and hat, and attempting to remove his t-shirt. He directly challenged the trolls, saying, 'Aap apni upbringing dikha rahe ho. Mere upar bhi hua tha, of course 60 saal ka hogaya hoon...' which translates to 'You are showing your upbringing. The same thing happened with me too. Of course, I have turned 60 now.' This marks a significant moment where the star has openly addressed the pervasive issue of celebrity trolling.
The context for Khan's remarks involved ScoutOP's request for his gaming community to troll Arishfa Khan after a disagreement during a captaincy task. This incident led to Khan's broader commentary on the nature of online abuse and its impact.
