TIL Desk Bollywood/ Superstar Salman Khan intended to give a message on water conservation with his Bottle Cap Challenge, but that has led to people questioning his religious belief.
On Sunday, Salman shared his version of the Bottle Cap Challenge, which is about people coming up with inventive ways to unscrew a bottle cap. Instead of kicking the cap, Salman blew off the already-loosened bottle cap and drank the water, ending the video by saying “Paani bachao (Save Water)”.
While fans of the Bollywood superstar lauded his act, there was a part of the video which caught the ire of a section of people.
Salman starts the video with the gesture of folded hands as if he is praying, then raises the hands for prayer, and ends it with a Holy Cross gesture. This was enough for users on social media to question his religious beliefs.
