"Being Human was created to clean Salman Khan's public image": Abhinav Singh Kashyap; Arbaaz Khan reacts

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has been in media headlines for various reasons in the last few days. One of the reasons is his fallout with the Dabangg director Abhinav Singh Kashyap who earlier had made serious accusations on Salman for destroying his career.## Now, in his latest post on Facebook, the director has claimed that Salman Khan's 'Being Human' was only created to clean the actor's public image so that he could get benefitted from the criminal cases against him. ## On Friday (June 19), Abhinav Singh Kashyap wrote on Facebook, "Janaab Salim Khan’s biggest idea is Being Human. The charity done by Being Human is just a show-off. Five cycles used to be distributed in front of my eyes during the shooting of ‘Dabangg’, the next day the newspapers would print that the generous Salman Khan has donated 5000 cycles to the poor. It was all an effort to clean Salman Khan’s image so that the media and the judges were kind to them in his criminal court cases."## "They are making money by fooling the innocent public. They are selling Rs 500 jeans for Rs 5000 and And do not know in what ways money laundering is going on in the name of charity. These clever people are collecting notes from the innocent public by throwing dust in their eyes. Their intention is not to give anything to anyone, but to only acquire from people. The government needs to probe Being Human… I will cooperate with the government.”## ## Now, Arbaaz Khan has reacted to the allegations and stated to a daily that they (Khan family) have taken legal action against the Dabangg director. They have also complained to the film association. Instead of getting in fight they have decided to take the legal route against him. They have already filed a defamation case against him. ## Stay tuned...
