Pakistani actor Humayun Saeed has shown support for Bollywood star Salman Khan following criticism over the actor’s age, appearance and fitness while hosting the 20th season of Bigg Boss.
Salman Khan has faced social media commentary about his physique and appearance since promotional material for Bigg Boss 20 was released. The criticism prompted the veteran actor to address the issue during a recent episode of Weekend Ka Vaar.
During the episode, Salman responded to comments about his fitness by removing his shirt and showing his physique, including his six-pack abs. His response quickly attracted attention online.
The Bollywood star also used the discussion to address a broader issue involving the way female celebrities are treated on social media.
Salman spoke against criticism directed at actresses over weight gain during pregnancy, arguing that changes in a woman’s body during pregnancy should not become a reason for online trolling.
“Everyone gains weight during pregnancy. When they return to the screen, they will get back into shape, so stop doing that,” Salman said, according to the report.
The comments generated reactions from viewers and were widely shared across social media platforms.

The Pakistani actor has also been the subject of social media discussions concerning age and appearance during his career, making his gesture particularly relevant to the broader conversation surrounding established actors.
