    Salman Khan appointed Olympics Ambassador

    Tuesday, 26 April 2016 13:19

    Divided opinion on Salman Khan being appointed as Goodwill Ambassador

    Salman Khan has been selected as goodwill ambassador of the Indian contingent for the Rio Olmpics, which has caused a controversy with many people divided on their opinion about his selection. The whole affair got uglier after Salim Khan, Salman's father, lashed out at ex-sportsperson Milkha Singh for criticizing the 'Dabangg' actor's selection.

    Celebrities like actress - politician Kirron Kher and filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya have defended the Indian Olympic Association's (IOA) decision to appoint superstar Salman Khan as the goodwill ambassador. "It is a very good decision. I am very proud of Salman Khan. All people who are trying to say that only a sportsman should be appointed as an ambassador, I would like to differ from them," Kirron said. Meanwhile ex flame Katrina Kaif said "A controversy with Salman, is it a new thing?".
