More news →'Papa' Salim has 'rescued' Salman Khan six times
Superstar Salman Khan is controversy's favourite child in Bollywood and as such landed himself in soup repeatedly. The latest instance of the 50-year-old star courting controversy happened over the weekend when he compared himself to a 'raped woman'. As soon as the outrage over the comment started escalating, 'Daddy dearest' Salim Khan stood up and speaking on behalf of his son asked for forgiveness. This isn't the first time that 'Papa' Salim has taken it in his hands to rectify a mistake committed by his son or defend his boy. Here are six instances when Salim Khan took up arms for Salman Khan Salim apologises for son's 'raped woman' comment Veteran screenwriter Salim Khan said that his son meant no wrong when he said he felt like a 'raped woman' during the shooting of 'Sultan' but apologised on his behalf after the latter was condemned on social media. "Undoubtedly what Salman said is wrong, the simile, example and the context. The intention was not wrong," Salim Khan tweeted on Tuesday. "Nevertheless I apologise on behalf of his family, his fans and his friends. Forgiveness is to pardon the unpardonable or it is no virtue at all," added the 80-year-old veteran. The screenwriter also said that on International Yoga Day, "let's not run our shops on this mistake". Salman heeds daddy's words over Yakub Memon comments The Bollywood superstar Salman Khan apologised for tweeting earlier that the 1993 Mumbai blasts accused Yakub Memon should not hang but his brother Tiger Memon should. While saying that he stood by what he had said, Salman said his father wanted him to retract his tweets "as they have the potential to create misunderstanding". The veteran scriptwriter had earlier lashed out at his son for tweeting in what was construed as support of 1993 Mumbai serial blasts convict Yakub Memon. Salim said that whatever Salman wrote was ridiculous and meaningless, adding that his son was ignorant of the issue and, therefore, people should not take him seriously.
Watch the trailer of web series 'Sex Chat with Pappu & Papa'
Faaiz Anwar and Prem Prakash Gupta launched the music of their upcoming film, Love Ke Funday, at a suburban five-star. Y-Films, the youth wing of Yash Raj Films, is coming up with a show titled 'Sex Chat with Pappu & Papa', which seeks to delve into hitherto taboo subjects like condoms and homosexuality. It's an attempt to bring the topic out of the closet, says producer-director Ashish Patil. 'Pappu & Papa', to be launched in July, is a five-part fiction series premiering on the Y-Films YouTube channel and tells a story that will deliver information across different themes related to sex and sexuality -- from masturbation and menstrual periods to condoms, pregnancy and homosexuality. The show attempts to be clean and honest in style, with a lot of humour and heart, read a statement from Y-Films. 'Sex Chat with Pappu & Papa' tells the story of the Watsa family. It will feature a curious seven-year-old boy Pappu, who asks the most outrageous questions of his Papa, Anand, who attempts to answer them to the best of his ability -- initially with a lot of awkwardness and eventually with a lot of fun, simple anecdotes. Talking about it, Patil said: "The second-most populated country in the world, in spite of being the home of texts and temples such as the Kamasutra and Khajuraho... Sex is still a very taboo topic in India. Most parents clam up when having to talk to kids about the 'birds and the bees'. "Sex education is not even provided in most schools. And when done... it is not appropriately curated or delivered. Misinformation or lack of information cause further confusion and problems. Which is why you have 40-year-old men writing in to sex columns asking if they will go blind if they masturbate. "Research clearly shows that sex talk with parents is directly linked to safer sexual behaviour. This is our attempt to bring this important conversation out of the closet. So come on, let's talk about sex." Starring Anand Tiwari, Kabir Sajid, Sanjeeda Shaikh, Alka Amin and veteran Sachin Pilgaonkar, the series marks the directorial debut of Patil, who heads Y-Films. It is written by Gopal Datt and Devang Kakkad with story supervision by Amritpal Bindra and Anand Tiwari. The series has been researched and ratified by medical experts, according to the makers.
