Salman Khan should apologise for rape remark, says Rishi Kapoor

Salman Khan's rape remark shook the entire nation and there was a huge furore about the same. Many Bollywood celebrities condemned Salman for passing such an insensitive statement. And some even sided with Salman. 

Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor finally broke his silence on the entire issue. Rishi accepted that Salman 'didnt mean it' the way it's being presented. He said, "There are times when you’re narrating something in our local language. Main maantaa hoon galat baat hai. you say sometimes 'I’m raped yaar'. You say you’re spaced out, it doesn’t mean you’ve gone to space. You say you’re screwed, doesn’t mean you’re screwed. You don’t mean it. Analogy boliye ya similie, jo de raha thha, he didn’t mean it."

But Rishi feels that Salman should apologise for his remark. Salman was also asked to render a public apology by the National Commission for Women but he hasn't apologised yet. Rishi feels he should do that now. 

"It was improper and at the wrong time also... if he’s done something that has hurt people, then he should say sorry. Why would he not? If sometimes you hurt somebody’s sentiments, you say sorry. There’s nothing wrong with that. Aapne galti ki hai, toh qubool maang li jiye," Kapoor told.
