Actor Vicky Kaushal has finally reacted to a video that surfaced online in which Salman Khan’s bodyguards seemingly push him at an event in Abu Dhabi. Speaking to reporters, Vicky said that matters “are blown out of proportion at times.” He added that “things are not actually as they seem in videos.”
On IIFA Rocks 2023 green carpet, Vicky told reporters about the viral clip, "Kayi baar bahut baatein badh jaati hain. Bohut uss baarein mein unnecessary chatter hota hai. Uska koi fayda nahi hai (Several times things are blown out of proportion. There are unnecessary chatters about many things). Things are not actually as they seem sometimes in the video. There is no point in talking about that.”
At the same event, Vicky and Salman Khan also met each other and shared a warm hug. In a clip shared by a paparazzo account, Vicky talked to several people as Salman walked and stood beside him. Vicky turned around and the two actors hugged. Reacting to the clip, a fan wrote, "Awwww!!! Haters can go cry in a corner now!" Another said, “I didn't want to comment on the alleged shoving until I watched the video. I just did and I must admit that I can't see why this is being made a big deal.”
In the previous much talked about video, Vicky posed for a picture with a fan as Salman entered from the opposite side, escorted by his security. Vicky, seemingly, attempted to shake hands with Salman. However, the actor's bodyguards appeared to push him out of the way. As the video went viral on social media, many people reacted to the video.
On the work front, Vicky is gearing up for the release of his film ‘Zara Hatke Zara Bachke.’ He stars opposite Sara Ali Khan in the film, which will release in theatres on June 2. He also has 'Sam Bahadur’ in the pipeline, helmed by Meghna Gulzar and produced by Ronnie Screwvala. It is the story of India's war hero and first Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw.
