Salman Khan insulted A.R. Rahman in public
Composer, lyricist, and worldwide acclaimed singer, A R Rahman left school in the midway to support his family after his father’s untimely death. He later completed his education at Madras Christian College higher secondary school. He also received a scholarship from Trinity College London to further pursue his knowledge in music from Trinity College of Music.
Formerly known as Dileep Kumar, A R Rahman has changed the face of the music industry through his composition skills and a magical voice. Music maestro became the first Indian to be nominated in 3 categories at the Academy Awards for his music score in the British-Indian movie Slumdog Millionaire.
Rahman scripted history in the year 2009 by becoming the first Indian to win 2 Oscar awards for the Best Original Score for Slumdog Millionaire and “Jai Ho” song. “Before coming here I was excited and terrified. The last time I felt that way was when I was getting married. There is a Hindi dialogue ‘mere pass ma hai’ which means even if I have got nothing I have my mother here. I want to thank her for coming all the way to support me,” A R Rahman wrote.
In 2014, Salman Khan and A. R. Rahman shared a stage for an event where they interacted with reporters. Director Kabir Khan and politician Kapil Sibal marked their presence on that stage.
During the event, Salman jokingly called Rahman an average composer. His remark didn’t go down well with AR Rahman fans and Salman Khan drew criticism at that time.
Back in the event, Salman Khan jokingly asked, when AR Rahman will compose for his movies? The world’s famous composer didn’t reply at the very moment but came up with a hilariously reply to a reporter who asked the same question.
While replying to the reporter, Rahman said that “He” ll compose for Salman Khan’s films only if he does the films he likes.”

7 Celebrities who ruined their careers by messing up with Salman Khan
There is no hiding from the fact that the Bollywood industry has largely been influenced by people who haven’t heir link-ups in the film industry. The so-called star kids of already established ones are already in the headlines for all the reasons and are allowed to stay there despite their success or failure.
On the contrary, talented ones are struggling to set their feet. To make things worse, the Bollywood industry even leaves people when they go through bad times. For instance, Sushant Singh’s death by suicide.
There were reports according to which the Bollywood star was banned by some big production houses including producers such as Karan Johar, Aditya Chopra, Salman Khan, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, etc. Some video clips of old videos are also going viral on social media platforms in which A-listers or the star kids are seen making fun of Sushant during a talk show or at other events.
Social media users are very angry with the big celebrities of the industry. In fact, many are demanding that movies of Karan Johar, Salman Khan, Bhansali, YRF, etc. should be boycotted to teach them a lesson. A campaign has been started on change.org in which people have to sign a petition for boycotting the films of KJO, SKF and YRF.
Salman Khan is often praised as one of the most powerful personalities in the Bollywood industry. It is cognisance of the fact that the Dabanng Khan has been godfather to many and is also popular with his NGO “Being Human” community.
It is also believed that the Bhai of Bollywood has been involved in deliberately destroying many musicians and actors’ careers.
In this article, we will have a look at seven Bollywood celebrities who career got affected after messing up with Salman Khan.
Sona Mohapatra
Sona Mohapatra who is an Indian singer, music composer and lyricist has always been vocal about Salman Khan’s alleged bully nature.

Ranbir Kapoor
Salman Khan and Ranbir Kapoor were in disagreement or violent dispute with each other over Katrina Kaif. It has been learnt that the Barfi actor started dating Katrina Kaif during the filming of Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani which irritated Salman Khan.
Ever since then, Salman Khan and Ranbir Kapoor never became friends. Even during at Arpita Khan’s wedding, Salman took a jibe at Katrina on how she missed a chance to be a Khan and chose to be a Kapoor instead.
Zubair Khan
Zubair Khan is one of the celebrities whose career got affected after messing up with Dabangg Khan. The Bigg Boss 11 contestant had a quarrel with Salman Khan during the eleventh season of the controversial show.
Following this, the contestant was asked to leave the show citing bad conduct. The contestant also went on to say publicly, “I’m not Vivek Oberoi… Mai teri bajauna… Zubair Khan bhookha rahega na, tu usko khilayega.”
The contestant had also threatened that he would file an FIR against Salman Khan after getting out of the show. Nonetheless, that didn’t happen.
Renuka Shahane
When Salman Khan was free from a criminal charge by a verdict of not guilty for the Black Buck Poaching Case, Renuka Shahane launched a scathing attack on Bollywood celebrities for remaining silent over the incident. She wrote a detailed post criticising the judgement. This relationship between Renuka and Salman turned sour.
Arijit Singh
During an award function, when Arijit Singh’s name was highlighted for the Best Playback Singer Male, the singer was caught sleeping. It was Salman Khan who was presenting the award and the actor himself took a jibe at Arijit Singh over the incident.
The singer had later posted a two-page apology on the social media platform. It was also believed that Salman Khan took away several projects from Arijit Singh.

Anurag Kashyap
An independent thinker and filmmaker of Bollywood was also in a bad situation with Salman Khan. He was supposed to direct Tere Naam but did not want to cast Salman Khan as Radhey.
However, producers were firm and determined to cast Dabanng Khan. As per some reports, the producer threw a glass bottle at Anurag Kashyap for telling Salman Khan to grow some chest hair for the role.
Vivek Oberoi
Bollywood fans must have known about the alleged affair of Aishwarya Rai and Vivek Oberoi during the filming of Kyun.. Ho Gaya Na. Salman Khan, the former boyfriend of the Miss World, got irritated by this and allegedly started harassing Vivek Oberoi as a result.
Vivek Oberoi had even called a press meet to narrate his terrible experience to the media. Nonetheless, this didn’t revive his cinematic career but Salman Khan remained unperturbed.

A video has gone viral on social media like wildfire in which actor Salman Khan can be seen kicking Sushant Singh Rajput.
In the video, Sushant is seen sharing the stage with Salman Khan, Shahid Kapoor and Varun Dhawan and he is seen dancing with Shahid Kapoor. In the video, it seems that Salman Khan kicks him to make way for Varun Dhawan.
Sushant Singh Rajput’s shocking death sparked a fresh debate on nepotism in the Bollywood film industry. Since Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, Kangana Ranaut has been speaking frequently on nepotism, blaming Bollywood biggies.
However, it is not clear yet whether Salman Khan deliberately hit him. There were reports according to which the Bollywood star was banned by some big production houses including producers such as Karan Johar, Aditya Chopra, Salman Khan, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, etc.
