The cat is back in form. Indian socialite and writer Shohbaa De has put a dampener on the recent Salman Khan box-office smasher Bajrangi Bhaijaan by saying that the film is an attempt at making Sallu mian look good and as an ‘ambassador of peace’ so that he could be kept of out jail (the reference is to the actor’s hit-and-run case).
This has clearly irked the makers of the film and its director Kabir Khan has hit back at Shobhaa D (well, not quite) with the statement: “I appreciate a critique on my film not an aspersion on my character.” Boy o boy ... the woman, for sure, hits it where it hurts the most.
