Salman Khan is facing severe backlash on social media for comparing physical stress to rape. In an interview with an entertainment website, Salman said that he had to lift wrestlers who weighed somewhere around 120 kg 10 times from 10 different angles. And used to get thrown as many times by them.
He added that after the shoot he used to feel like a raped woman who could not walk straight.
Salman's statement about "raped woman" has stirred controversy yet again. Post the interview, the actor has received strong criticism from his fans.
Bollywood has an opinion on everything. Just not on the sick insensitivity of one of their own.. @BeingSalmanKhan pic.twitter.com/ueoEqT4947

Fans claim Salman's quote was a metaphor. Please stop yourself. It was the most disgusting "metaphor". Stop defending his stupidities.

Salman Khan compared his shooting schedule to what a "raped woman" feels like. Is that worse than Lata-Sachin jokes, Bollywood?
