Salman Khan reacts to 31-year age gap with Rashmika Mandanna in Sikandar: ‘Tumko kyun dikkat hai bhai’ | Bollywood-OxBig News Network

Salman Khan hits back at his critics

On Sunday, Salman attended the trailer launch event in Mumbai along with the team of the film including Rashmika. During a conversation on stage, Salman brought up the topic of people trolling him for working with a young actor, and the 31-year age gap between him and Rashmika.

When the host complimented Salman for looking good, the actor said, “Beech mein aisa gadbad ho jaata hai ki 6-7 raat soye nahin, fir vo social media vaale peeche padd jaate hain, unko dikhaana padta hai ki abhi bhi hai (At times, things get so messed up that I don’t sleep for six to seven nights. Then, those social media people start chasing me, so I have to show them that I’m still here).”

He continued, “Phir woh bolte hain 31 years ka difference hai heroine aur mujh mein, arrey jab heroine ko problem nahi hai, heroine ke papa ko dikkat nahi hai, tumko kyun dikkat hai bhai? Inki shaadi hogi, bachchi hongi, toh unke sath bhi kaam karenge. Mummy ki permission toh mil hi jayega (Then they say there’s a 31-year age gap between me and the heroine. But if the heroine has no problem, and even her father has no issue, why do you have a problem, brother? When she gets married and has a daughter, I will work with her daughter too. Her mother’s permission will be sorted).”

At this moment, Rashmika was seen laughing at Salman’s remark.
