Salman Khan’s Father Salim Khan Steps Out Of His House Every Day Despite The Lockdown For This Reason

Salman Khan has been making headlines with his video on social media in which he schooled citizens who are walking around freely during the coronavirus lockdown. He explained how staying at home is the need of the hour to protect ourselves and our loved ones from the COVID-19 pandemic. Well, in a strange turn of events, it has been reported that Salman’s father and respected screenwriter Salim Khan has been taking regular morning walks on Bandra Promenade despite the strict lockdown. This has not gone down well with a Bandra citizen who has been noticing him since 3 weeks.

Well, in a chat with Pinkvilla, the screenwriter clarified, “I have been adviced by the doctors to continue my walks as I have lower back issues. I have been walking for the last 40 years and the doctor has told me if I stop suddenly, it might affect my back more. Moreover, I have the pass issued by the government till April 30, and I am following all the norms possible. It is only on medical grounds, that I am allowed to take a walk outside. I am a law-abiding citizen but people tend to pick on us given that we are celebrities.”

He went on to add, “I am not the only one who walks around. There are so many people I see who are strolling with their pets. But no one reports them! Anyway, I am ensuring I take all safety measures and also, I hope everyone else does too.”
