Filmmaker Kunal Kohli has publicly supported Salman Khan after the actor addressed online trolling, body-shaming and paparazzi behaviour during the latest episode of Bigg Boss 20. Salman spoke about the way celebrities are targeted over their appearance and criticised photographers for taking uncomfortable pictures of actresses.
Kohli reacted to Salman’s comments through a video message and praised the actor for raising issues that have become increasingly common on social media and in celebrity culture.
Kunal Kohli Says Salman’s Words Carry Weight
Kunal Kohli said that when Salman Khan speaks about an issue, people pay attention. He suggested that the actor’s popularity gives his comments considerable visibility and allows important conversations to reach a much larger audience.
The filmmaker particularly appreciated Salman for addressing trolling and inappropriate paparazzi practices on a widely watched platform like Bigg Boss 20.
Kohli also questioned the role of people who follow and encourage such online behaviour, saying that the issue is not limited to those creating the content but also involves audiences who engage with it.
Salman Khan Speaks Against Body-Shaming
During the latest Weekend Ka Vaar, Salman Khan addressed comments targeting celebrities because of their age, weight and appearance. He spoke about the difference between expressing genuine concern for someone's health and deliberately mocking their physical appearance.
Salman also mentioned actors including Varun Dhawan and Sohail Khan while criticising the culture of making fun of celebrities online. His comments came amid wider discussions around body-shaming on social media.
The actor also referred to criticism faced by women after pregnancy and argued that changes in a woman's appearance should not become a reason for online abuse.
Salman Questions Paparazzi Practices
Another major part of Salman’s discussion focused on paparazzi photography. He criticised photographers for taking pictures of actresses from angles that can make them uncomfortable, particularly photographs taken from behind.
Salman mentioned examples involving Saiee Manjrekar, Neha Dhupia and his own niece while explaining why celebrities should be able to object when they feel uncomfortable with the way they are photographed.
His remarks brought renewed attention to the debate over celebrity privacy and responsible paparazzi coverage.
Kunal Kohli Supports Salman’s Stand
Reacting to Salman’s comments, Kunal Kohli expressed his support for the actor. The filmmaker indicated that Salman had addressed several relevant issues and that his decision to speak openly could encourage more people to think about the way celebrities are treated.
Kohli's reaction comes at a time when discussions around trolling, body-shaming and paparazzi culture are receiving increasing attention across the entertainment industry.
Bigg Boss 20 Episode Sparks Discussion
The latest Bigg Boss 20 episode generated discussion beyond the show's contestants and their gameplay. Salman used the Weekend Ka Vaar platform to talk about social media behaviour, trolling and the treatment of actors by photographers.
He also spoke about the pressure celebrities face to comment on political and sensitive issues, explaining that public figures may choose not to express an opinion on every topic.
The episode therefore became a broader conversation about celebrity life, public scrutiny and the responsibilities of people operating around the entertainment industry.
Salman’s Comments Draw Reactions From Bollywood
Kunal Kohli was among the Bollywood personalities to react to Salman’s comments. Earlier, Varun Dhawan and filmmaker David Dhawan had also responded after Salman mentioned Varun while discussing online trolling.
Actress Neha Dhupia also reacted to Salman’s comments on social media, writing “Tiger zinda hai” in support of his stand.
The reactions show how Salman’s comments have resonated with several people from the entertainment industry.
Debate Around Trolling and Celebrity Culture
Online trolling has become a recurring issue for celebrities, with actors frequently facing comments about their appearance, age, weight and personal lives. Social media has also made such comments more visible and easier to circulate.
Salman’s comments have added another perspective to the debate by focusing not only on trolls but also on the way paparazzi images are captured and distributed.
Kunal Kohli’s response further highlights the discussion within Bollywood about how public figures should be treated both online and offline.
Kunal Kohli and Salman Khan’s Bollywood Connection
Kunal Kohli is known for films such as Hum Tum, Fanaa and Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic. Salman Khan has collaborated with Kohli on the 2018 film Race 3, in which Salman played the lead role.
Their professional association makes Kohli’s latest reaction particularly notable, although his comments were focused on Salman’s recent statements rather than any new film collaboration.
For now, Salman’s remarks on Bigg Boss 20 continue to generate reactions, with Kunal Kohli adding his voice to the ongoing discussion around online trolling, body-shaming and paparazzi practices
