While making his point, Salman removed his hat and shirt and challenged those who had been trolling him to continue commenting on his appearance. Contestants in the house applauded the moment.
His comments were part of a wider discussion about body-shaming and age-shaming on social media.
Salman Also Spoke About Women Facing Body-Shaming
During the same episode, Salman discussed the criticism women can face over changes in their appearance, including after pregnancy. Without naming a specific person in that discussion, he questioned why women should be mocked for gaining weight after becoming mothers.
The remarks came amid social media discussion around Katrina Kaif’s appearance following motherhood. Salman also spoke about the importance of allowing women time with their families rather than judging them based on their physical appearance.
