Salman Khan's ascend to the top bracket of heroes in Bollywood has been dotted with more of spicy scandals than box office hits.
Hardly has the actor come out of the 'Black Buck' controversy when he is hitting headlines, on more or less a regular basis, for getting too close for comfort with his women colleagues.
First it was Kareena Kapoor who got the muscled man's strong biceps to offload. According to onlookers on the sets of a yet-to-be-titled venture, Salman tried to act fresh with the newcomer granddaughter of Raj Kapoor. But this girl is different from the other stoic newcomers, who bear it all silently.
Kareena gave it back to Sallu calling him a non-actor in an interview to a top film magazine. She even went a step ahead and spoke to the media about Salman's bullying nature and how he makes life hell for newcomer actresses.
Well, the actress concerned here was Kareena Kapoor, who has the privilege of belonging to the first family of Bollywood and therefore can afford to be blunt to Khan. But there are smaller souls who will not get a place in Bollywood if they earn the wrath of Salman.
One such unfortunate star, or rather a starlet was Suman Ranganathan. The sultry actress was a part of a show troupe that was to perform in Jalandhar. Hotel Lilly, on the outskirts of the city, was the venue where the stars were put up by the organizers.
Salman, as usual, tried to impress upon Suman and confident of his charms expected the actress to follow him to his hotel room. The Khan's ego took a battering when Suman refused to give in to his excesses. What followed was quite a scene for the hotel staff at least.
According to the manager of the hotel, Salman banged on Suman's hotel room door in an inebriated state and started abusing her when she refused to open the door. Things were taking a violent turn when poor Suman had to concede and opened the door to Salman.
His ego being pumped up, the group of stars could get back to Mumbai on a happier note. Wonder what Aishwarya has to say about curbing Salman's wild ways!
