Activist declares ₹2 lakh reward for thrashing Salman Khan
AGRA: Govind Parashar, Agra unit president of ‘Hindu Hi Aage’, on Thursday declared a reward of ₹2 lakh for anyone who thrashes Bollywood actor Salman Khan in public.
He accused Khan of hurting Hindu sentiments by naming a movie made by his production house as ‘Love Ratri’, which he alleged, was deliberately scheduled for release during ‘Navratri’.
Parashar and other activists of the organisation reached Bhagwan Talkies crossing on Thursday and burnt posters of Salman Khan’s movies. They also raised slogans against the actor and the movie ‘Love Ratri’.
‘Love Ratri’ is being produced by Salman Khan Films, a production house of Salman Khan. The movie scheduled to be released in October features his brother-inlaw Aayush Sharma.
“The movie is being produced by Salman Khan by distorting ‘Navratri’ – a religious occasion with which sentiments of lakhs of Hindus are attached. We condemn such intention of Salman Khan and seek ban on the movie, which if permitted to be screened, would be opposed tooth and nail,” warned Parashar.
“We won’t tolerate hurting of Hindu sentiments and as city unit president of ‘Hindu Hi Aage’ I have declared a reward of ₹2 lakh for anyone thrashing cine actor Salman Khan in public,” stated Parashar.
“The Censor Board should not allow this movie. If allowed to be screened it would invite angry protests by ‘Hindu Hi Aage’ and the cinema halls screening the movie would be burnt,” added Parashar.
Earlier associated with the Bajrang Dal, Govind Parashar is currently with ‘Hindu Hi Aage’ -an outfit of Praveen Togadia.
