After a four-year absence, Salman Khan will return to the big screen in the family comedy "Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan." The Farhad Samji-directed film is a whole package, with aspects of romance, action, and family drama at its core.
Before the film's release, Palak Tiwari, who will be making her acting debut with the Tiger star, said that Salman had a rule about how women should wear. Salman Khan is a "traditionalist," according to the aspiring actress, who also expects women on sets to "be covered, like good proper girls." After her interview received a tonne of attention on social media, a rerun of Salman's appearance on Rajat Sharma, Chairman & Editor-in-Chief of India TV's Aap Ki Adalat, where he was asked about Katrina Kaif's dressing went viral.
Salman explained the reason of his outrage on the show, stating that "while it (Katrina Kaif's outfit) was short, fitting was also not appropriate." He revealed that the incident occurred while they were filming the Mashallah song for Ek Tha Tiger, and Salman insisted that it was nothing out of the ordinary because they frequently voiced their opinions about each other's attire on site.
Salman Khan could be heard saying, "Woh bahut khoobsurti se decency se kapde carry karti hai. Aur waise bhi Tiger ke andar who last gana tha, Mashallah, usme zarurat bhi nhi thi aisa kuch pehenne ki. Bahut ladkiya thi jinhone ne hardly kuch pehna tha. To theek tha. Jab tak humari ladkiyan decently dressed hain humko koi farak ni padta."
In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Palak shared that Salman Khan has a dress code for women on his sets. "Ki koi bhi ladki mere set pe, neckline should be here (for every girl on my set, the neckline should be here), all the girls should be covered, like good proper girls”. So my mum spotted me (heading to set) dressed properly, joggers and all. 'Where are you going?' she asked. 'How do you look so put-together?' I stated that I was heading to Salman Sir's set. 'Wow, very wonderful,' she exclaimed."
Salman was described to as a "traditionalist" by Palak when she was questioned the need for such laws regarding women. He does indeed say, "Jo pehenna hai pehno (wear whatever you want)," but he also says, "My girls should always be protected." If there are males around she doesn't know, it's not his own space where he doesn't trust everyone; he's like, 'the female should be safe, always'."
