The Salman Khan Big Boss Outburst Was A Long Time Coming REACTION!!

The biggest, the baddest, wackiest, funniest, filmiest, show on earth. >> Hey, welcome back to our stupid Corbin. Hey, you can follow more juicy content. We're back. Today we got a video from Tried and Refuse Productions. >> We like tried and refuse >> and we're going to try to figure out this thing. I don't know if anybody sent you anything. Have you seen Salmon Khan take his shirt off recently in like a post or anything? >> No. The only thing Salman Khan I saw was him get mad at the group because they couldn't they wouldn't let him through. >> Let him through. >> Yeah. He was he was walking out of something and going and the crowd was all pressing in and literally he couldn't walk. >> Okay. Well, this is called Salmon Khan Big Boss Outburst. Was a long time coming. That's what the title is. >> I I I don't know what it is. It's him on Big Boss. I've never seen an episode of Big Boss. I don't think he's have obviously. It's a really big show. I think it's been on for like 20 years, right? >> Right. Uh, I just saw a bunch of people sending me stuff with someone with a shirt off. >> Yeah, I didn't say that. >> I didn't see that. >> I don't know what the what the subject matter is, >> but it's like apparently going real viral, right? I would like to know. And so I think uh Tried and Refuse is going to let us know here. >> Let's see what's up a little bit. >> Thank you Tried and Refuse for being on top of this for being on top of Salman Connell. >> Yeah. Hey, I've seen this one. I've seen this one. This is a classic. You take your shirt off a lot on the show. In a recent episode of Big Boss, a show that Salman Khan has hosted for more than a decade and has the nation actively discussing several aspects of its episodes. It's still wild on how the show is actively clocking in so many views. I guess that is a testament to a format that just works works so much that there is a big boss in every major language in India and is equally the talk of the town. Yesterday was after years probably where even I who was out of the loop of this reality TV show in particular was made aware of Salman Khan's outburst. The star in a fit of rage and frustration provided proof of his physical progress at a time where for months people on social media have trolled him for his appearance. A man who is 60 plus reached such a point of rage that on national television he was compelled to provide proof that he is still relentlessly working on himself physically. This is rather shocking for those who have followed Salman Khan across the years as well because he often has had a very apathetic attitude towards trolls. A man who has such a loyal fan base, often times Salman in interviews have considered these trolls to be frustrated individuals who project their own insecurities for engagement online. I think there are several aspects to consider. This includes the position that Salman Khan finds himself in currently in his career, the nature of social media today, and what has been normalized across the board on the internet. I'm sure many of you may have the experience of being body shamed or trolled for your physical features in family settings or among friend groups. Comments that are passed while having no business even being discussed all for the purpose of embarrassing someone or making them self-conscious about features they cannot do anything about. I often used to be in these settings in family functions where someone elderly would pass a comment all while trying to be their local stand-up comedian among family members. A fitting reply would be considered to be an attitude problem. silence would be assumed to be the same. If you don't laugh along while you are being mocked, you are just not an acha. And I thought as a generation of millennials, we would break the cycle. We would be so scarred of these experiences that we would never make someone subject to the same embarrassment. But what has happened with the limited experience of my observations in my own personal life and even what I see on social media. Not only does the cycle continue, but we have normalized projecting the same toxic energy to strangers online. All because public personalities should be accustomed to such trolling and ridicule. They asked for it. We have created such a distance between what we are consuming on our algorithms online that we assume the rich, affluent and famous people just have to deal with it. Let's first discuss why Salman Khan may have reached a point where he just had to resort to such a move. Salman Khan is genuinely for many who are avid viewers of Hindi cinema. The face that inspired a lot of people to pursue bodybuilding. This man was ripped and aesthetic at a time where Hindi cinema had mostly out of shape or scrawny men. And this man up until his 50s had been consistently in good shape. The man was known for his bare body shots. So much so that in the 2000s if Salman Khan in the climax or at any time did not take off his shirt, there would be genuine disappointment that Bai did not beat up a bad guy with his ripped look. What however is a natural processing transformation that actors go through after a certain age even becomes tougher. And I know many of you will agree that the point which severely impacted Salman Khan from a very objective lens physically was a grueling schedule he went through in Sultan. The man put on weight, cut down for flashback sequences and gained weight in such rapid succession that I believe the production of this film genuinely fried the CNS of Salman and just how much he gave to the role. has never gone to the gym in his entire life. So Ali does not know, okay, it takes a good three and a half, four months, okay, to lean down and to bulk up. Ever since Sultan, the man has been playing catch-up to the same aesthetic build that he himself popularized. In some movies, let's be very honest, depending on digital enhancement as well in order to look way more ripped than he naturally was. The pressure of the image created by the man almost compelled him to keep the facade on. But when this is constantly called out on social media and then anonymous users and Stan accounts get enough fer of angles or shows where Khan may be struggling or is looking out of shape, the trolling becomes relentless. What one must accept is that we live in an era where news is dictated by what's trending on social media. And if a video where Salman is struggling to get up from a chair or barely being able to dance becomes viral, you know for a fact that it will reach him. You have no more content. The man was accustomed for years to have a distance between him and the chatter. And now when the chatter, the good, bad, and the ugly is all reaching him on his phone. No matter how accomplished a man, there is bound to be a point where it impacts him. It's not a performance. It's not a film storyline. It's his physical appearance. Understand the toxic circle we exist in today. Create a comparative analysis of writing praise of someone and ridiculing someone and just see the contrast in engagement. The more shocking the content, more the virality setting in stone even to the admin of random meme pages on Instagram that this is the key for engagement. I actually did not find the Salman Khan moment to be badass. I did not find it to be this big to trollers. I found it to be rather sad that a star reaches such a point to do this. We compelled a star to reach such a breaking point that he felt this was the last resort. There is however on the flip side something a lot of people are not acknowledging. Salman Khan as a star has normalized such standards. For years he has been the face of fitness on the big screen. The man who generally motivated many to join the gym and actually pursue weightlifting and pumping some iron. He was a bodybuilder. But when you do look at the medium he works in, the evolution of most actors is to also play their age, play more mature roles as they turn 50 and over. But the refusal of the '90s batch of actors to evolve into character actors and still deliver massi commercial cinema by being desirable leads at 60 have compelled them to constantly meet this demigodlike demand of being Dorian Gay for life. Never aging, being timeless, creating such an illusion among fans too where the fans refuse for them to grow old. I mean, think about Russell Crow in contrast for a bit. A man who played the roles in movies like Gladiator where he was at his peak physically and see his physical appearance in movies like the nice guys. He has never dragged or trolled for his appearance because as an actor as an example, have you seen him recently? >> The celebration of Salman as the bodybuilding barechested hero is also his burden. Just like how that the only way the audience can accept life looks like a Greek god. >> There is a very cringy trend on social media now and pardon my French where everyone has become a mahali auntie with comments like oh our stars are aging. Oh what happened to them she has wrinkles now. Oh he has a punch now. We are so adamant in believing that our stars will be the image we remember them as for life that we out loud shame them for just being old. I'm also telling you just on a side note as a well-wisher and brother, if you have anyone in your life whose first instinct is to talk about your weight or appearance with a sense of shock when they see you, please distance yourself from them or correct them because they don't mean well. Anyway, not to have a side note of my own projections, but the point is twofold. Social media trolling on one's physical appearances has completely gone out of hand. And while I absolutely despise such comments under the garb of analysis, I also feel like stars like Salman have normalized such unfathomable beauty standards that have become precisely the reason why they were getting trolled. People online are so ruthless that they just wait for you to slip once to pounce on you. And the nature of Salman's films not working, the trolling being incessant may have just made him reach a complete boiling point. I mean, look at the contrast of the visuals from Duskadam years ago where the man was at the prime of his career. The act itself was just a celebration of the man. Whereas here, it's the struggle to keep up that same image alive. It's almost like a Shakespearean tragedy when I think about it. On the nature of social media though, I feel like there is one criticism and concern and two plain ridicule. I believe criticism for one's physical appearance is still justifiable when it gets into the way of performances. So when I see Jan and Salman barely moving in action sequences, I think there is merit to the criticism that the man is not agile enough for these genre of films anymore. Similarly, when everyone speaks about the epidemic of Botox in the film industry in India and abroad as well, where the faces of actors are barely moving, where they are trying to express themselves, actors like Nicole Kidman and Lindseay Lohan have specifically been called out for the same, where the performances become distracting because their faces are barely being able to move. This is when I understand when the physical appearance becomes a part of the criticism. It does not allow immersion from a viewer's POV. But when someone is appearing on a red carpet and they are just being ridiculed for clicks or memes, I think it is mean-spirited and uncalled for. I mean the way Katrina Kef was trolled for her appearance at the Amani Gpati festival event absolutely baffles me. Random accounts on social media giving tip like this chap here. What does this discourse contribute? How does her appearance come in the way of anything while she just minds her business in her personal life? And I think this is a very weak and terrible argument to make when one justifies trolling with the pretext of it's part and parcel of public life. How does one justify spitting venom just because one is a public personality. This is the distance I was talking about previously in the video that social media has caused between us and who we are seeing while we doom scroll. They are just windows not humans. Raj Kumar Ra's chin becomes such a topic of discussion that one forgets about all the compelling performances he did. It gets dragged to the point where nothing else matters about the man. Arjun Kapoor and his poor acting performances are so personally offending viewers that they feel compelled to personally reach his comment section to say something mean-spirited even when he is minding his own business celebrating the wedding of his sister. I mean I often think about Prabhas. His appearance has been a constant topic of discussion post Bahubali. No one talks about the physical ramifications both him and Rana Dagupati dealt with after the exceptionally challenging schedule. The complications their bodies went through to become those demigods on screen. And now it feels like users just want Prabhas to look like the memory they have of him not realizing maybe that ship has sailed. I think about this with Anushka Shetty too where this one film is constantly referenced as her grave mistake that she should have never done because it adversely impacted her body and how it's been a struggle for her to get back in shape. But this becomes the central theme of what people focus on, not how compelling or poor her performances are. I swear to God, the discourse online has reached peak forms of insensitivity where our social media pages are taking the shape of becoming those B-grade Zoom shows where actresses would be featured on the fashion police segment with sirens on ridiculing them for how they look. Salman Khan calling out the paparazzi and the way they capture women on the streets is abhorrent. It needed to be called out. I see countless reels of actresses saying no to capture them from behind and the same videos get posted with a background music. These reels that are bought in bundles by PR agencies for their talent have become soft fer for social media users. And I'm here to tell those PR agencies that it is doing nothing for their careers or how they are perceived by the public. This normalization of fat shaming and ridicule bullying masters banter has desensitized us of even considering what and how one may process comments that are deeply hurtful. This is not only true for individual trolls but PR and marketing agencies that use it so that acting camps can war it out with each other. Film industry. The last thing I want to mention is that what social media has also normalized is that there is no scope of evolution if you have a digital footprint. Now the nature of discourse online is such that we discount what someone says on the basis of how morally correct they have been throughout their life and we use tactics of what aboutism to point out where they may have faltered years ago using it as ammunition to discount what they are rightfully calling out because you have never made mistakes. You never have had a change of thought in your life with new information. You did everything right all the time. So what is being said is never considered because the messenger is problematic. The same users or forums that do this are hilariously contradictory. The same pages who would be posting unflattering photos or clips of celebrities knowing very well that the comments will troll the celebrity get this new found wisdom weeks later when things get out of hand and ugly. They are the cause of the commencement of the toxicity and they start looking around and wondering why the entire building is under fire. This outburst was a long time coming and if it required a medium like Salman Khan or the most popular TV show in India with the nation watching, I think it's the most effective one because it gets people not only talking about terrible things that have been normalized but also introspecting on how they may have crossed the line at some point in their life. And that was a video guys. Write down in the comments below what you thought about the outburst and the discourse that it has caused. Please don't forget to follow me on Instagram. The handle's right. So, was it him in relation to what trolls did to him or was did he say at the end it was about what the paparazzi did to women? >> You mean Salman? >> Yeah. >> No, it was my understanding that there were a lot of trolls Yeah. >> talking about his physical appearance and he apparently has had enough and ripped off his shirt to prove he's in shape. >> Yeah. >> Cuz everybody was saying he wasn't. >> Yeah. >> And he he does look good. Uh especially for was 61. He said >> he's going to turn 61 in December. >> And it's easy to stay in shape at 60, right? >> No. >> Well, you would know yet. You're not 60. >> No, >> you would know yet. At 57. >> Oh, simple. No different than it was when I was 27. >> Yeah. No different. >> I think it might be easier now. >> Yeah. Is that so much easier? Actually, what's f it? It um Yeah, people Everything he said is true. There's a lot to cover. Yeah, of course. A lot to cover. A little over a lot there. I agree that it is sad that Salman felt it. It it to me it evidences a level of insecurity I didn't think Salman had. Um to to to feel like you have to take off your shirt to prove to everybody that you're still in shape. >> Granted, he does face more scrutiny than probably most people will ever imagine. >> That's the caveat is it's easy to say >> I don't know what that's like. >> Yeah. >> And never will at that level. Nobody will outside like >> to he, you know, it may be he's hearing it from literally everyone, >> his PR people, his representation, he's losing ads. >> It it very well could have reached a peak boiling point for him where he he he was at the point of can we just be done with this now? You guys are also shallow. You want to see here now? Can you shut up? I I don't know. Uh, I have no judgment on whether it was a good or bad thing for him to have done it. >> Also, it's a reality show. It very well could have just been premeditated to >> It could have been, but it does my I like he said he felt a little sorry for it. I don't know what point you get to that where you would care so much about your physical appearance that you feel like you need to prove your physical appearance is okay. Again, I'm not in his shoes. Uh the thing I do agree with is you do need to point out like we said if somebody gets is it looks sick and that's been happening here in Hollywood. A lot of people are taking uh OMIC >> and losing too much weight >> uh and they're they look sick and there's I've seen you know People magazine or some other Vogue they're looking hey they look great on the red carpet and all the comments are no eat a hamburger they look really sick right now and we're concerned about their health. >> Ariana Grande. >> Yeah, that's one of them. Yeah. Um I the the the staying in shape is extremely difficult the older that you get especially when it's not just staying in shape >> when your body has taken a pounding over years doing the kinds of action >> his name is David >> like doing action films that Salman Khan has had to do >> the the pounding on the knees and the body uh and and the the the schedule that you have to keep and maintain it catches up to you >> and it is unfair. The world would just be a better play. There's two contributors to this and it has nothing to do with the bodies and people. >> One has to do with people just being there are very very very very unintelligent people emotionally and IQ. They're they're stupid stupid people in the same way that you can't get a o ax to appreciate poetry. They will always poop on things and be stupid. The other thing you combine these two is this kind of thing wouldn't happen if people were just kind. >> If people just thought to themselves, is this kind? You don't kind people don't even have to ask that question. >> Nope. >> Kind people are just kind. >> Kind. >> And it's very obvious when trolls are not kind, which also evidences that they're idiots. And I don't mean that just as I mean that they're actually very very stupid and they're very very insecure and they want a response to validate the fact that they're never going to achieve anything and they're jealous of what somebody else has. >> Um so yeah I I'll never understand why >> Russell Crow is a great example. >> Yeah. >> Uh Russell has just he he's gained weight for roles but he's also just gained weight because Russell wants to just have the weight on. He does not give a absolute rat's ass when anybody thinks about his physical appearance. doesn't give one Uh, as he shouldn't. >> Who's the one? >> Neither did Marlon Brando. >> Sylvester had to get back in shape, right? Stallone. >> Yeah. For like Creed and stuff. >> Yeah. I mean, he's still he's still he still works out, but you can tell he's had a lot of damage to his body over the years. I mean, he's 80 now. He's 80. >> He's 80 now, Sly. He just turned 80. >> He's 20 years older than Salmon. >> Yeah. >> Good god. >> Yeah. >> That's wild. So muscle mass is harder to keep on. Testosterone levels drop. Uh but if you keep working out and take care of yourself, uh but again, when you're at that level of stardom, it's it's not easy to maintain. And nor should you be expected to maintain it. And I do think we in Hollywood have gotten better. We have a long way to go. But I think we've gotten better with accepting the aging of our stars, both male and female, than specifically Indian cinema and Hindi has for the male the male stars from the '90s. Yeah. The >> Yeah. and the Ashes and the >> but they also haven't really allowed it to happen the way that say Amitab Bakchan and Nerid and Sha and >> granted they were never the he well obviously Big B was but not in the time where like you just you took your shirt off and you were the actor. >> No, but you know who Sly did it. >> Mhm. >> Sly did it. Tulsa King. He's a He's a very It's not your typical Ramboesque type of character. It's more Good fellas. >> I feel like Anil has transitioned well. >> Yeah, Anil has transitioned very well. >> And now Bobby. >> Yes. >> And uh I I don't know. Uh cuz I they were some action stars obviously back in the 90s. >> What would help they were never the level of the cons. Well, what would help is if they they weren't so interested in maintaining this image of being the hot, sexy action star from 30 years ago >> and just took on roles because actors are expected to change their appearance. >> You see somebody at the Oscars giving an award and their hair is completely different and they put on 10 pounds. Your first thought isn't why' they let themselves go. It's what film are they doing? Mhm. >> You know, um but yeah, the predominance of the problem is the shallowess and the low IQ and the insecurity and the unkindness of people. And for those people, I I learned a lot from you. It took me a long time. You and my wife were big contributors to getting me to the place of saying, I don't care what people think anymore. >> I I just don't, especially on the internet. >> Yeah. I don't give a rat's ass. It probably really surprised you for a long time as to why does Rick give such a crap about what they think. >> Yeah, you would do it sometimes and then you would stop and then I go back and forth >> back and forth. I've been pretty consistent though. >> Yeah. >> That's good. >> Yeah. I've been on the internet long enough to uh just know that you just >> like even you need to not care about >> what people say. when we had our wedding ceremony and it went viral uh my Instagram post and we had like 3 million people >> and 75% of them were just raging hatred for our age difference, our interracial relationship, the fact that we come from different faith backgrounds. I mean, the hate was out the window >> and I was I just didn't give a I don't care. >> So happy. It feels so much better to not care. >> Anyways, uh do better Salmon Khan. Get in better shape. Get in better shape. What do you What do you You're 60. You should look better than Come on. He looks great. >> I mean, Anam Pam Ker looks better. >> No. >> Oh, wait. No. >> No. >> Everyone knows the greatest physique in Indian cinema is Yogi Babu. >> That's true. Hands down. Him and Jack Black. >> Who's That's another thing I love about Jack. >> How old is Ash? Is Ash older than Salmon? >> They're all in the same ballpark. How old is Ashkumar? They're all right around 60. >> A Kumar? >> Yeah. 59. years old. >> He just turned uh he just turned 59. So >> I believe of those stars I think he's in the best shape. It wouldn't shock me though because he might have been because he's a martial artist, right? >> And so like he might have kept that up. >> Yeah. And it also to me like muscles great. You got muscle mass. I don't care. Are you flexible? >> How's your cardio? >> I bet that's why it seems like a might be he also might be just taller. >> Yeah. And I feel like taller people might um I'm not saying age better, but um obviously as you get older, you you contain weight more. And obviously the shorter you are, the more the weight that's going to be correct. Correct. >> The taller you are, it's going to be spread out. It's true. >> Uh and so it might just I feel like A's at least 5 in taller than Salman, right? Probably. How tall is Ashkumar? 5'11. Easy. >> How tall is Salman Khan? >> 57. Salman Khan is 59. >> He's not 5 foot n. That's him with lifts in his shoes. >> That's true. We always see him wearing boots, don't we? >> He's not. He's He's got to be maximum maximum Tom Cruz's height. 5'7. >> 5'7, which would make him 8 n 10 11 4 in shorter than Ash. >> No. >> Yeah. I would be shocked if Salman Khan was 5 foot n cuz we've seen him next to actresses and I've gone Oh. Oh, and I've looked up her height and seen them in the film together back in the '90s, and that's He didn't grow. >> Yeah, >> he looks good for for 61. The dude looks good. >> He needs to go through puberty. There's not an ounce of body hair on him. But >> but he doesn't grow hair. >> At the same time, Salman, if you were out of shape, it >> it's fine. >> You're It's okay. That happens to people. >> Granted, you might like to stay in shape. Being in good shape, there's a lot of factors that come into it. One of it is completely out of your control. You are blessed with good health. >> Mhm. >> A lot of people are out of shape for a lot of reasons. Like some people have thyroid conditions. Some people have diabetes. Some people just have genetic problems. Some people have chronic sleep disorders which makes it impossible for them to go to the gym. Some people work and have kids. They cannot go to the gym. Uh so this this whole idea of and the the poison of six-pack ab ripped bodies like you see for the superheroes. >> Yeah. >> And you don't realize that that's not normal and unhealthy. >> Yeah. >> Anyways, uh let us know you thought about the the the thing. It was big big. It was all over my feeds. Uh I asked Pat, >> why do I keep seeing Salmon with his shirt off? Well, cuz he let the world know I'm sexy and I know it. >> Oh, he does. >> He's too sexy for his shirt. >> Let us know you thought about it down below. >> The biggest, the baddest, wackiest, funniest, filmiest show on earth.
