Lucknow: A petition has been filed against actor Salman Khan at the Chief Judicial Magistrate in Lucknow on Thursday for his controversial 'rape' remarks.
The petitioner Rafat Alam said that Salman's statement had hurt him as well as many others in the country. "There should be an FIR against him. It's an insult to girls and women and therefore a case should be registered against Salman," he added.
Earlier, when reporters flanked him at the Mumbai airport asking whether he would apologise for his comments that sparked a national outrage Salman evaded the questions and walked away.
Salman had landed himself in a controversy for his remark that he felt like a "raped woman" after one gruelling shoot for his upcoming film 'Sultan', sparking demands for an apology from the actor.
"We have asked Salman or his lawyer to appear at our office at 2 PM on June 29 to give their clarification over the remarks," Commission Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar had said.
"If the actor does not turn up we will presume he has nothing to say and will proceed unilaterally in the matter," she said.
