In one of the clips from the event, Mohan Bhagwat explained how Salman Khan’s choices often influence young people, particularly college students.“Salman Khan ji kya pehen te hai, college vidyarthi waese pehente hai. Kyun pehen rahe hai? ‘Unhone pehna hai isliye.’ Unhone kyun pehna hai? ‘Maloon nahi,’” Bhagwat said. (What Salman Khan wears, college students do the same. Why do they do it? Because he is wearing it. Why is he wearing it? I don’t know.)He went on to add, “Sabhi baaton mein aesa, acchi baat buri baat, fashion se hi chalta hai. Fashion utpanna karne waale log hote hai woh samaajh k vishwas paatra, shrestha, keerteemaan, aese log hote hai…” (It’s the same in every matter, good or bad, everything is driven by fashion.

Krissh 4 stalled over Hrithik Roshan, Aditya Chopra’s disagreement?
Fans eagerly awaiting the return of India’s most popular superhero may need to brace for a longer wait. Krrish 4 has reportedly run into a major financial hurdle, stalling progress on the much-anticipated fourth chapter of the franchise.According to a report by Sacnilk, the delay has nothing to do with creative differences or script-related issues. Instead, it stems from a significant disagreement over the film’s budget between lead actor Hrithik Roshan and producer Aditya Chopra. The project was initially expected to go on floors in early 2026, but that schedule now appears increasingly unlikely. Hrithik, who is set to step into the director’s chair for the first time with Krrish 4, is said to be advocating for a budget of around Rs 500 crore. The actor reportedly wants the film’s action sequences, visual effects, and overall scale to compete with global superhero productions.Aditya Chopra, however, is believed to be unwilling to approve such a steep investment. The Yash Raj Films head is reportedly keen on capping the budget at approximately Rs 350 crore, aiming to strike a balance between spectacle and commercial feasibility.With neither side willing to budge for now, the film has reportedly been pushed to the “back burner.”
