Corroboration: 3 independent outlets

Mini Mathur won Prime Video's reality show Alliance, taking home the trophy and Rs 50 lakh. After her win, she told Nayandeep Rakshit on his YouTube channel that she 'didn't like' Salman Khan's comment that her husband, filmmaker Kabir Khan, is 'scared' of her. She said she adores Salman but found the remark unpleasant. Mathur added that she has long been known as 'Kabir's better half' and was glad the show let Salman see a different side of her. She found it entertaining to watch other contestants react to Salman's presence, calling his visit a boost of energy days before the finale. Salman is now hosting Bigg Boss 20 and has a film, Maatrubhumi, upcoming.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

All four sources report the same interview, with no disagreement. Each leads with Mini Mathur's discomfort at the remark, then includes her broader positive feelings about Salman Khan's visit. The framing is uniform straight reporting: the story is a celebrity reaction, not a political or ideological matter. The coverage adds no editorialising about gender dynamics or the remark itself. The interview itself, not the outlets, drives the tone.
