Salman’s remarks about 26/11 attacks

Check out this old video where Salman speaks on Mumbai terror:

The 26/11 attacks, also known as the Mumbai terror attacks, were a series of coordinated terrorist attacks that took place in November 2008, leaving the city in shock and mourning. Salman Khan in an interview to Pakistani channel Express TV said, “Too much hype has been created around the 26/11 attacks because elite people were targetted. Attacks have happened in trains and small towns too, but no one talked about it so much.”

He further said, “Everybody knows that the Pakistani government was not behind it and it was a terrorist attack. Our security had failed. We have had lot of attacks earlier, and all of them were not from Pakistan. They were from within.”

As soon as Salman Khan’s statement made its way to the public, there was an immediate backlash. People were quick to criticize the actor for his insensitivity and lack of empathy towards the victims of the attacks. Social media platforms were flooded with angry comments and hashtags calling for a boycott of Salman Khan’s movies.
