Salman Khan, 52, is one of Bollywood's biggest superstars, has spent almost three decades in and has over 100 movies on his resume. He was speaking at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit in the National Capital. "Now, being a beautiful woman or a man, someone or the other is going to flirt with you," he added.
Salman, who has never had a casting couch experience himself, said he has also neither been directly told about such accounts. "I have not heard anything like this. If a lady or a man comes up to me and tells me that something of the sort has happened with them, I will take them down to the cleaners," IANS quoted him as saying.
Previously, prominent Bollywood actors like Ranveer Singh, Tisca Chopra and Radhika Apte are only the few names who have shared about their brush with casting couch. Newcomer Ashish Bisht, whose Shab released in July, told IANS, he was frequently asked: "Are you comfortable in bed?" during professional meetings.
Salman Khan will next be seen in Tiger Zinda Hai, which releases on December 22. Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, both Katrina Kaif and Salman reprise their Ek Tha Tiger roles in the sequel.
