Critics, Salman & I

MiD DAY reader Anam Batool is miffed with critics who constantly pick on Salman Khan

Every time I think things are finally looking good for Salman Khan, something goes wrong. Recently it seems like Salman is a favourite for Muslim clerics and those who want nothing but to destroy him.

Once again a fatwa has been issued against Salman for his wax figure at Madame Tussauds. What I would like to know is, why wasn’t a fatwa issued when Shah Rukh Khan’s wax figure was unveiled? How was it possible for the so called clerics to miss that?

Where were all these clerics when Shah Rukh Khan, Zayed Khan, Fardeen Khan married non-Muslims? Is that not a sin according to these clerics?

I don’t understand why fatwas are issued over petty  issues and that too against one person in particular.

Why can’t people leave Salman Khan alone?

I’m sick and tired of Salman being made a scapegoat each time. No matter what he does, the daggers are ever ready for him.

 I’ve been a hardcore Salman fan since his Maine Pyaar Kiya days and  I feel he is the most misunderstood person in the world.

He is an inspiration for millions around the world. He’s someone who has changed so many peoples’ lives.

Why doesn’t anyone see that?

Let him live his life. Let him have peace for once in his life. Give Salman the privacy that he deserves.
