Salman Khan just turned a digital sting into a meme‑worthy moment. On a recent episode of Bigg Boss 20, the Dabangg star tossed his hat, peeled off his jacket, and dropped the T‑shirt to showcase a ripped physique right in front of the camera. The clip hit the internet faster than a viral hashtag, and the trolls, who’d been body‑shaming him, were left standing in the dust.
Varun Dhawan and Neha Dhupia were among the first to back the star, throwing in emojis and short clips of their own. But it was Rohit Shetty who let the world know the gesture mattered beyond the fan club. On Instagram, the director posted the same video, captioned, ‘Only unconditional prem for him. Dear trollers, it’s done, bro.’ The use of ‘prem’—a nod to their long‑running franchise—reignited a flurry of memes.
Kunal Kohli joined the chorus on X, calling out the trolls for ’losing basic humanity’ and praising Salman for tackling paparazzi culture. ‘You made the most important points on social media etiquette,’ Kohli wrote, adding that once a brother speaks, ‘no one else can.’ The dialogue captured more than a celebrity feud; it was a critique of the toxic ecosystem that feeds on body image and age.
Salman also used the platform to throw a curveball at trolls who target women after pregnancy. His line—‘Why do you troll someone who gets pregnant? Pregnant hone ke baad weight gain kar liya, wapas movies mein aayegi toh fit ho jayegi’—ignited a wave of support from fans who felt the message hit home. The clip trended under #NoMoreBodyShaming, with thousands of comments from women who’d faced similar harassment.
As the internet buzz ebbs, the star’s next move is clear: use his platform to keep the conversation alive. With a new film slated for release next month, Salman is already drafting scripts that will challenge the status quo. Meanwhile, Rohit Shetty’s endorsement could signal a new wave of industry solidarity against online hate, a trend that may ripple across Bollywood and beyond.
