Salman Khan shared a series of strongly-worded Instagram posts in the early hours of Wednesday after an incident involving paparazzi outside Mumbai’s Hinduja Hospital. According to now-viral clips circulating on social media, photographers allegedly followed Salman Khan’s vehicle to the hospital, continued clicking pictures and recording him. After he exited the hospital, they were also heard shouting “Bhai, Bhai” and “Maatrubhumi” to grab the actor’s attention.

In the videos, Salman appeared visibly upset and asked the paparazzi to keep quiet near the hospital premises. He also questioned their behaviour, asking how they would feel if one of their own family members was admitted inside. The video further showed photographers apologising to the actor.

However, the matter did not end there. Salman later took to Instagram and posted a series of pictures along with captions warning the paparazzi not to mistake his silence for weakness.

In a third post, where he was seen smiling with half his face covered by his hand, the actor issued a sterner warning. He wrote, “Try doing this the next time someone close to you is suffering. Just try it. If someone from your family is in the hospital, would I react this way?”
