Do Salman Khan's comments show that rape is still not getting taken seriously in India?
The Bollywood star has been criticised after he told reporters his filming schedule was so tough that he felt like a 'raped woman'. Immediately after he made the comments he realised his mistake and retracted them, but the news had already spread. This subsequently lead to the hashtag #SalmanMisquoted being created on Twitter. Rape is still considered a major issue in India. So does Salman Khan's comments show that rape is still not getting taken seriously in India? A number of listeners contacted the show to share their views with Nihal.
