Salman Khan recently visited Maharashtra minister Ashish Shelar's residence to seek Lord Ganesha's blessings during Ganpati celebrations in Mumbai. The actor's visit turned tense when a large crowd gathered around his vehicle, and a fan's foot came under his car. Now, a video has emerged online showing the star seemingly reprimanding the driver.
The video shows several fans crowding around Salman's car, hoping to get a glimpse of the actor and leaving little room for the vehicle to pass. Even his security personnel appeared to struggle to manage the crowd.
As the driver tried to steer the car through the packed area, a fan's foot was allegedly caught underneath the vehicle. Those nearby could be heard asking the driver to move the car slightly backwards as the fan cried out in pain.
Where was the crowd management? The driver drove over a man's foot, that's why Bhai reacted! Salman never reacts unless they're wrong. Amidst the chaos, his big heart still greeted a waiting kid. Pure soul! ❤️

In another clip, a visibly upset Salman can be seen hitting and scolding the driver. The actor then instructed him to move the car away from the crowd as the situation grew more chaotic.

Salman's reaction drew mixed responses online. While some viewers initially criticised the Wanted star for his “rude” behaviour toward his driver, others changed their stance after watching the complete video and praised him for stepping in during the incident.
One user wrote, "These Bollywood actors are a bunch of hypocrites. Don't give so much value to them. Keep them away & stop chasing them, then see how they all become humble."
