Salman Khan, the flamboyant superstar, asked a seven year old contestant if he wants to hug Jacqueline, to which the kid replied 'no', because he doesn’t feel like. But then Salman took Jacqueline to the stage and made him forcefully hug her, not once but twice.

Negating consent and all that we are teaching kids about how their bodies are theirs. *slow clap* https://t.co/ZJ1dVGCxmz

Salman Khan practically coerces a little boy on a reality show (who says he does not want to hug her) into giving her a hug. Infuriating!
@BeingSalmanKhan @Asli_Jacqueline If a kid repeatedly says he doesn't want to hug you, shouldn't you probably respect his wishes and consent and mind your own business and understand simple "NO" https://t.co/AyBLikaCnM #WeToo #Metoomovement

Kid of 5 or 6 says he doesn’t want to hug Jacqueline Fernandez. Celeb panel laughs. “Aise kaise?” Repeatedly he says he doesn’t feel like hugging her. Body language suggests same. Salman Khan forces him to hug her. Forces him to “tightly hug her” once again. Consent be damned. https://t.co/UPd9RfI0mD
