Bollywood star Salman Khan scolded his driver after a fan's foot was reportedly caught under his car during a chaotic Ganpati darshan exit at politician Ashish Shelar's residence. Videos show the actor hitting the driver's hand and instructing him to move the vehicle away from the crowd as the injured fan cried out.
Earlier, Khan was mobbed by fans and paparazzi, requesting them with folded hands to make way. He also stopped his security from pushing away a child, shook hands with the youngster, and ensured he was safely escorted out. The incident has sparked mixed reactions online, with some praising his humility and others calling him hypocritical.
Khan is currently hosting Bigg Boss 20 and shooting for the action thriller SVC63, directed by Vamshi Paidipally, slated for an Eid 2027 release. His other film, Maatrubhumi, directed by Apoorva Lakhia, has no new release date yet.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All three sources report the same facts: Khan scolded his driver after a fan's injury, was mobbed at Ashish Shelar's residence, and shook hands with a child. ABP Live and Hindustan Times lead with the mobbing and polite request, while Times of India opens with the reprimand. None of the outlets adopt a pro-government or critical stance, they are uniformly neutral-report. The key difference is emphasis: Times of India foregrounds the controversy over Khan's reaction, while ABP Live highlights his folded-hands plea. The coverage indicates the star's security protocols may need review for such large gatherings. A Mumbai police advisory on crowd control at celebrity events is the next item to watch.
