The fact that he can lose his cool towards them and act in an undignified manner tells me that he's quick tempered and doesn't give a rat's arse about rules. You can not teach someone a lesson with your hand because they said something you did not like, especially if you happen to be a celebrity. A celebrity who assaults a journalist because the journalist said something has to be incredibly juvenile. If he takes it upon himself to act like a common thug, I really don't see any reason why he shouldn't be treated like one.
The guy has poor anger management as shown when he pushed that journalist (several channels covered this). That lends more credence to Aishwarya's claims. If someonce, in full consciousness, can act rowdy towards a journalist while he's being caught on international television, it isn't too much of a stretch to believe that he has the capability to maul a woman when he is drunk. Plus, his rowdy behaviour further reinstates that his so called bad boy "image" may actually be more than just an image.
I don't pretend to understand the inner workings of Aishwarya's mind, so I doubt you'll get a logical reasoning from anyone who isn't Aishwarya. As for bruises et al, there is a law in Pakistan that says a rapist would only be convicted of rape if there were 5 or so other witnesses who testified that the rape did indeed take place. What you are saying seems a lot like that. Should we only start believing women's stories of domestic abuse when they show their bruises? Conversely, many (and I don't know if you fall in this category) seem to believe Salman has a "heart of gold" based on reported charity events. Don't you need *proof* for that, given that you are asking for proof to determine if a woman is being abused? Or do different standards apply to male and female celebs?
I don't know much about his exes to say much on that front.
Brilliant good sense here. While I actually get a kick out of some of Salman's films that doesn't have one thing to do with him personally and I really can't understand this doggish need to lick someone's shoes that drives people to try to worship a fellow human being just because he has the job of film actor!!!
I mean, get a grip! Is Salman going to come and pay your child's school fees? Who is he to you? He makes you happy for 2 hrs and something odd minutes on a screen, he cannot raise the bloody dead, and he is not perfect!
And if OUR parents who I assume love us (or maybe not or we wouldn't be so dashed intent on worshipping some actor who doesn't even know we exist) expressed displeasure that someone had abused US would some silly anonymous little sycophant criticizing their love and casting aspersions on their concern be in good taste?
So Salman is going to care for you now eh? Doubt it. Lick his spit as you will,he still won't know your name.
Now I like Salman because he is at least direct. He may have thuggish qualities and a lousy ability to control his impulses, but he is on the up and up about it.
I've never seen him ridicule his fans by pretending to be one thing when he's another or implying that he considers his fanbase to be a bunch of stupid naive idiots.
I'd much prefer a straight out emotionally driven man to another kind of calculating, manipulative person, no matter how charming they may be.
But really Salmon can't cure cancer. If you don't believe me, go ahead and when someone you care about gets it...ask him. Chances are that IF you can get past his bodyguards, he won't be able to . He's human like the rest of us.
I still want to see Veer though and I hope it's a success😆
