Former Shark Tank India judge Ashneer Grover yet again has created headlines for taking dig at Salman Khan months after appearing on Bigg Boss 18 Weekend Ka Vaar in November 2024. During the episode, Khan called out Ashneer's previous remarks about him. Despite apologising to Salman, Grover has again slammed the actor, saying Salman has taken a "faltu panga" with him.

Here's what Ashneer Grover said about Salman Khan
Ashneer said, "Faltu ka panga leke apna competition khada kiya usne. Main toh shanti se gaya tha jab mereko bulaya. Ab drama create karna ke liye aap kisiko bol do, arey main toh aapse mila hi nahi. I don’t even know your name. Abey naam nahi jaanta toh bulaaya kyun tha?"
Grover further added, "Aur ek baat main bata deta hun. Tum agar meri company ke brand ambassador the toh aisa nahi ho sakta ki tum merese bina mile brand ambassador ban gaye. Mai bhi kamino ki tarah hi company chalata tha. Everything had to go through me."
Salman was hired as the brand ambassador for Bharat Pe, while Ashneer was still associated with it. In 2022, while addressing students at Lovely Professional University, Ashneer had once revealed that Salman's team demanded Rs. 7.5 crore for an advertisement, which he could not afford and when he negotiated with Salman's team.
In response, Khan's team said, "Sir, aap bhindi kharidne aaye ho kya, kitni mandwali karoge?" To which he replied, "Mere paas hai hi nahi paise, de hi nahi sakta." Eventually, Khan agreed to reduce his pay to Rs. 4.5 crore.
In a podcast, Ashneer also shared an incident when Salman refused to click a photo with him. Appearing on the Vagehra Vagehra podcast last year, Ashneer recalled, "Teen ghante baitha tha uske saath, uske manager ne bol diya ki photo nahi khichwani hai, sir thoda bura maan jaate hain. Maine kaha saale, maine bola, nahi khichwaunga photo, bhaad main ja tu. Matlab aisi kaunsi Heropanti ho gayi."
