7 Bollywood Celebs Who Messed Up With Salman Khan And Self Ruined Their Career
From Arijit Singh to Vivek Oberoi and Anurag Kashyap, people who messed up with Salman Khan and self ruined their bollywood career.
Salman Khan is hailed as the Bhai of Bollywood because he's one of the most powerful personalities in India. He has launched so many aspiring actors in the showbiz industry; he is also the godfather for many. His NGO Being Human¡¯s community is growing vastly. And his fanbase is so massive that people of all age-groups, class and divide are his fans. From autowalas and rickshawalas to corporate head honchos, his fan following is humongous.
So who would want to take pangas with Salman Khan? Well, there are many Bollywood celebrities who messed with him but destroyed their own careers instead. They rose to limelight for sometime but soon then faded away into oblivion.
1. What Happened to Vivek Oberoi Career?
The love triangle that Bollywood often showcases in films, turned into real life. After Salman Khan had a fallout with Aishwarya Rai, the latter apparently found peace in Vivek Oberoi, who was then riding high on the success of films like Saathiya. According to Vivek, Salman drunk-called Vivek 42 times harassing him over Aish, and that is when called a press meet to name and shame Sallu. Even after Vivek apologised repeatedly, he couldn¡¯t bury the hatched, and also couldn¡¯t revive his career in the industry.
2. Anurag Kashyap
Not many people know but Anurag Kashyap was supposed to direct Salman Khan starrer Tere Naam. Anurag apparently didn¡¯t want to cast Salman in the role of a UP boy as he thought he wasn¡¯t apt for the role. However, producers wanted to cast Salman. To make him fit into the role, he allegedly asked Salman to grow chest hair. Narrating the incident, Anurag, according to a report on catchnews.com, said, ¡°I told whole suggestion to Salman and asked the actor to grow some hair on his chest. When I said this to him, he was just staring at me and didn't say a single word to me. Next day Anurag got a call from the producer and he reached to meet him at his office. The producer throws a glass bottle to him and said - 'Saale Tu Salman Ko Baal Ugane Ko Bolega'.¡±
Since then, the duo hasn¡¯t been seeing each other eye to eye. Years later, Anurag¡¯s brother Abhinav Kashyap was offered to direct Dabangg 2, however, he refused to take the offer via a SMS. The Khan brothers got so miffed that later Arbaaz decided to direct the movie himself.
Later on, Anurag tweeted, ¡°Salman Khan thinks he made my brother's life. Hope he does the same for Arbaaz when he does Dabangg 2. All The Best. My brother doesn't need anyone... they will need him...¡±
3. Arijit Singh
Arijit Singh was rising high on fame when he messed with Salman Khan. It all started at an award show when Salman was anchoring at an award show, Arijit Singh was spotted sleeping. Even when his name was announced as the winner, Arijit had to be woken up by someone else to come on stage and receive the award. On the stage, when Salman jokingly took a jibe at the singer, he quipped back at him. Take a look:
After an angry FB post on the same incident, Arijit Singh even posted an apology. However, they both still share cold vibes, and rumours are that Salman got Arijit¡¯s songs from Welcome To New York removed from the film.

5. Bigg Boss 11 contestant Zubair Khan
Bigg Boss 11 contestant Zubair Khan and Salman Khan had such a huge tiff inside the show and Salman told him to leave the show. The contestant tried to threaten him by saying ¡°I¡¯m not Vivek Oberoi¡ Mai teri bajauna¡ Zubair Khan bhookha rahega na, tu usko khilayega.¡± It all started after Salman lashed out at him in one of the episodes for his misbehaviour. Salman had said, ¡°Tujhe Kutta banaunga.¡± Zubair got so offended that he said that he would take an action against him and file an FIR. However, that didn¡¯t happen.

"I am a woman who believes Bekhauff Azaad hai jeena mujhe," she quoted a line from her song Bekhauff to add to her answer. "If we get scared and hide ourselves under the bed fearing that somebody¡¯s going to put us out of work, what kind of world are we living in?" she asked.
