A long-standing Bollywood feud took center stage on television when superstar Salman Khan appeared to deliver an indirect but pointed message during the Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19. His comments, widely interpreted as a response to filmmaker Abhinav Kashyap’s recent allegations, have set social media abuzz. What exactly did Salman say, and what’s the history behind this high-profile conflict?
During a seemingly casual segment on the popular reality show, Salman Khan made remarks that left no doubt in the minds of viewers and media about their intended target. Without naming anyone directly, he addressed individuals who ‘were once associated with me’ and are now ‘speaking rubbish on podcasts because they have no work.’
What Salman Said: An Unmissable Message
- “Jo sab mere saath attach huye hai ya huye the, aajkal unki bhi baj rahi hai. Baithe-baithe log kuch bhi and sand bol rahe hain jinse mera talluk raha hai, aur jinhone kabhi meri tareef ki hai. Ab they don’t quite like me anymore.”
- “Aajkal log podcast me aake utpatang baatein karte hai kyunki unke paas koi kaam nahi hai. My request to you all is — please koi kaam kar lo.”
This powerful statement, delivered with his characteristic intensity, came amid a segment celebrating contestant Tanya Mittal’s birthday, adding a layer of ironic contrast to the tension.

The context for Salman’s remarks lies in a series of recent podcasts where Abhinav Kashyap, director of the blockbuster film Dabangg, leveled serious accusations against Salman Khan. Kashyap claimed that Salman:
- Took undue credit for Dabangg.
- Engaged in manipulation and harassment.
- Attempted to bribe him into silence with a flat in Burj Khalifa.
- Created difficulties for his brother, Anurag Kashyap, during the making of ‘Tere Naam’, forcing him off the project.
- Dismissed Salman’s recent praise for Anurag’s film ‘Nishaanchi’ as mere ‘chamchagiri’ (flattery) to silence critics.
These allegations reignited a long-standing feud that dates back to issues post-Dabangg’s release, showcasing a deep-seated animosity between the two personalities.
A Lingering Feud: More Than Just Words
The history between Salman Khan and Abhinav Kashyap has been tumultuous. While Dabangg was a massive success, the aftermath led to a public falling out. Kashyap has consistently accused Salman and his family of sabotaging his career and making life difficult for him and his brother. Salman’s recent comments on Bigg Boss 19 are seen as his first direct, albeit indirect, public acknowledgment and counter to Kashyap’s renewed offensive.
This incident underscores the volatile nature of relationships within the film industry and how public platforms like Bigg Boss can become arenas for airing grievances. The superstar’s advice to ‘get some work’ adds a sharp edge to the ongoing narrative, sparking discussions among fans and media alike.
