Salman Khan's Sikandar Co-Star Claims He Quit Controversial Kala Hiran Film when Asked to Speak Against Bollywood Star
Sonu Mmishra says he left the film after the contract required him to speak against Salman Khan to the media, calling the clause unethical.
- Veteran actor Govind Namdev is distancing himself from Kala Hiran, claiming he was misled by makers regarding the negative portrayal of Salman Khan. "The moment I saw the trailer, I felt I had been kept in the dark and used," Namdev told Amar Ujala.
- Kala Hiran is allegedly based on the 1998 blackbuck poaching case involving Salman Khan. While producers describe it as a "profound testament to the Bishnoi community," they maintain the film's characters are fictional, creating tension over its true intent.
- Sonu Mmishra, who starred in Sikandar with Salman last year, also departed the project after refusing contract clauses requiring him to speak against the star. "These things are against my ethics," Mmishra said, confirming he left before signing any agreement.
- Producer Amit Jani reported receiving death threats over the past 36 hours, claiming he received 1,000 messages from Salman Khan's fans. Jani publicly tore up the legal notice, arguing it only serves to publicize the film rather than halt production.
- The Bishnoi community has pursued a legal battle with Salman Khan at the Jodhpur High Court for years over the 1998 poaching incident. Critics now question whether the film genuinely supports the community or merely exploits their ongoing struggle for publicity.
