Bollywood Thikana took to their Instagram handle on Tuesday (October 14) to share a promo for their upcoming exclusive interview with Abhinav Kashyap, where the filmmaker is seen making fresh allegations against Salman Khan. He also claimed that his previous statements were true, which is why no one is directly reacting to them. Abhinav added that whatever statements he is making today is the result of the “poison” he has been carrying inside him for years.

IIn the video, he could be heard saying, “When I’m bashing the actor unapologetically, he isn’t saying anything, but his associates are deeply hurt. This man has ruined his own life to an extent that’s beyond repair.” Kashyap was also heard calling Salman an “apradhi” (criminal) and questioning how a person like him could portray a high-ranking soldier in the upcoming film The Battle of Galwan.

During the interview, Kashyap called Salman Khan a “chhapri” (a slang term meaning a useless fellow). He further claimed that the actor is no longer able to sell himself and is desperately hunting for projects. “When he was at the worst phase of his life, I offered him Dabangg, but he later stabbed me in the back,” the director said. He added that whatever he has been ranting about in the past few days has only hurt Salman’s fans, and the actor himself might not have felt a thing, because everything he said was true.

Kashyap ended the interview by sending a message to Salman and went on to sing a few lines from the title track of the actor’s 2003 hit film Tere Naam, saying “Tere naam, humne kiya hai, jeevan apna saara sanam.”
