In the most recent Weekend Ka Vaar, Bollywood star Salman Khan lit up the stage with his signature no-nonsense hosting style.

The actor flatly denied long-standing allegations that he has ruined people's careers. Indeed, Salman boldly declared that he would begin by ruining his own career if he ever had to do so.

Shehnaaz Gill and Salman took the stage together on Sunday to ask him to allow her brother Shehbaz Badesha inside the house.

Shehnaaz said, “Sir, aapne itnon ke career banaye hai (Sir, you’ve made so many people’s careers)." To this, Salman replied, “Maine kahan banaye hain kisi ki career. Career banane waala toh upar waala hai (When have I ever made someone’s career? The one who makes careers is God)."

Salman then added, “Laanchan bhi daala hai ki kitno ke dubaaye hai. Specially dubaane waale toh mere haath mein hai hi nahi. Lekin aaj kal sab chalta hai na ki career khaa jaayega. Kaunsa career khaaya maine? Par agar khao na toh main apna khud ka career khaa jaunga. Kabhi kabhi main complacent hojaata hun aur fir chodh deta hun aur fir vapas usko aapne grip main laane ki koshish karta hun (People have even mocked me saying I’ve ruined so many careers. But honestly, that’s not even in my hands. These days, it’s become a trend to say, ‘Oh, he’ll finish someone’s career.’ Tell me, whose career have I destroyed? And if I ever do, it’ll be my own. At times, I become complacent and let things slip, but then I work hard to bring everything back under my grip)."

Abhinav Kashyap, the director of Dabangg, recently asserted in an interview with Screen that Salman ruined his career by saying, “He (Salman Khan) is the father of the star system in Bollywood. He is from a film family which has been in the industry for 50 years. He continues the process. They are vindictive people. They control the whole process. If you don’t agree with them, they come after you.” Before this, the actor had also been accused of ruining the careers of singer Arijit Singh and actor Vivek Oberoi.
