A video from an award function in 2023 recently went viral, showing Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s bodyguard, Shera, seemingly pushing actor Vicky Kaushal. This video quickly sparked a flurry of reactions from fans and media, leading to widespread speculation and controversy. However, Shera has now stepped forward to set the record straight about what really happened.
The Viral Video Incident
Last year, a video surfaced showing Vicky Kaushal interacting with fans at an award function. As Salman Khan made his exit from the event, Shera, who is known for his security role, appeared to push Vicky aside. This moment was captured and shared widely on social media, causing a stir among fans. Many of Vicky Kaushal’s followers were upset, while Salman Khan’s supporters defended the incident, suggesting that clearing the way for Salman was necessary.
Shera’s Response
In a recent interview with Zoom, Shera, whose real name is Gurmeet Singh Jolly, addressed the controversy. He firmly denied the claims made in the video. According to Shera, he did not push Vicky Kaushal at all. He explained, “The video circulating on social media has been misunderstood. I was not involved in any such action. There was another person with us, but he too did nothing wrong. Salman Bhai and Vicky Kaushal are friends, and they interacted positively during the event.”
Shera further clarified that the rumors and speculations about the incident were just that—rumors. Both Salman Khan and Vicky Kaushal had a good rapport at the event, and there was no intention of disrespect or harm. Shera’s statements aim to calm the storm and correct the narrative surrounding the viral video.
Salman Khan and Vicky Kaushal’s Relationship
The incident led to further speculation about the relationship between Salman Khan and Vicky Kaushal, especially after Vicky married Katrina Kaif. Some reports suggested that Salman was upset with Vicky and was ignoring him. However, both Shera and Vicky Kaushal have dismissed these rumors as unfounded. Vicky himself had commented on the video, indicating that sometimes appearances can be deceiving and that small incidents are often blown out of proportion.
Salman Khan’s Current Projects
On the work front, Salman Khan remains busy with his upcoming projects. He was last seen in the action-packed film Tiger 3 alongside Katrina Kaif. His next major project is a film titled Sikander, directed by AR Murugadoss. Scheduled for release in 2025, Sikander is an action film featuring Rashmika Mandanna, Prateik Babbar, and Satyaraj. Salman Khan will play the lead role, continuing his streak of high-energy performances.
Who is Shera?
Shera, born Gurmeet Singh Jolly on May 19, 1969, in Andheri, Mumbai, has been a key figure in Salman Khan’s security team since 1995. Known for his background in bodybuilding, he won the title of Mr. Mumbai Junior Bodybuilding in 1987. Shera’s role extends beyond mere security; he is a trusted confidant and has been with Salman through numerous public events and personal moments.
In summary, the recent controversy involving Shera and Vicky Kaushal has been addressed, with Shera clarifying that there was no intent to harm or push Vicky. Both Salman Khan and Vicky Kaushal continue their careers with exciting projects ahead, and the viral incident appears to have been a case of misunderstanding rather than conflict.
