During the Ganpati festivities, Bollywood star Salman Khan was visiting the home of politician Ashish Shelar to receive blessings. The actor’s arrival triggered a frenzy of fans who crowded around his vehicle, making it hard for him to even get to the car. In the ensuing chaos, a video surfaced showing Khan angrily confronting his driver after a fan’s foot was reportedly caught by the moving car.
The clip shows the crowd pressing around the car, leaving little room for maneuvering. Security personnel struggled to keep the situation under control. When the driver attempted to back the car slightly, a fan’s foot was said to have fallen under the wheel, prompting the paparazzi to urge the driver to move the vehicle. Khan’s reaction was immediate; he slapped the driver’s hand and berated him for not moving the car away from the crowd.
Reactions to the incident were mixed. Some viewers labeled Khan’s behavior as “rude” for hitting his driver, while others defended him, claiming he had taken the “right action” to protect the fan. Comments ranged from “This video makes me proud as a fan of Salman Bhai” to “He is the most humble superstar,” but a few accused him of hypocrisy and egoism for scolding the driver.
Earlier footage also captured Khan being shoved by the crowd and his security team trying to maintain order. A child approached him for a handshake; Khan complied, then ensured the child was safely escorted away before boarding his car. The incident underscores the challenges high‑profile celebrities face when navigating large crowds during public celebrations.
In other news, Khan is currently hosting Bigg Boss 20 and is filming his next action thriller SVC63, directed by Vamshi Paidipally and starring Nayanthara. The film, produced by Dil Raju under Sri Venkateswara Creations, is slated for an Eid 2027 release. He also has the film Maatrubhumi in the pipeline, which was originally set for an April release but has been postponed with no new date announced.
