dispute
Salman Khan security guard humiliated
In June 2023, actress Hema Sharma gave an interview and shared an incident on the set of Dabangg 3 in 2019. She is a huge fan of actor Salman Khan and was excited to know that she might be paired up with the actor in the film. However, due to last-minute changes, the scene was shot solely by Salman Khan. Not happy with the changes, she contacted a few people to help her meet Salman Khan once and help her take photos with him. Later, she met Pandit Janardhan, who promised to fulfill her wish. Pandit Janardhan also worked as a celebrity astrologer and physiognomist on several seasons of the Indian reality show Bigg Boss. Both Hema and Pandit Janardhan tried to meet Salman Khan, but according to her, she was humiliated and abused by the actor’s security guards. Not only that, the security personnel also forcibly took her and Pandit Janardan away. They even threatened to ban Pandit Janardhan from entering the country. Hema Sharma was treated so badly that, she said, she was thrown like a dog in front of a unit of about 100 people. The unit included several people known to Hema, which added to the humiliation. Although Salman Khan was not present at the event, he was nearby. According to Hema, Salman Khan could have stepped in and handled the situation properly, but he didn’t bother to intervene. This made Hema even angrier and she vowed that she would never meet Salman Khan in her life. This incident caused Hema so much pain that he couldn’t sleep for nearly 10 days.
