Salman Khan’s Bodyguard Pushes Junaid Khan & Vicky Kaushal at High-Profile Events: What Really Happened?
In a whirlwind of viral moments, Salman Khan’s security team has found itself at the center of two controversies. At the premiere of Sitaare Zameen Par and the IIFA Awards, bodyguards mistakenly pushed Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid, and actor Vicky Kaushal, leading to widespread speculation on social media. However, both stars have now cleared the air, asserting that the incidents were nothing more than misunderstandings, and there was no ill intent.
Key Facts:
- Event 1: At the Sitaare Zameen Par premiere on June 19, 2025, a bodyguard from Salman Khan’s team accidentally pushed Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid, while attempting to clear a path for Salman. The incident, captured on video, quickly went viral.
- Event 2: At the IIFA Awards 2023 in Abu Dhabi, a similar situation unfolded. A security member of Salman’s team was filmed pushing actor Vicky Kaushal as the crowd swarmed around the celebrities.
- The videos caused an uproar, with many viewers speculating about potential tensions between Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, and Vicky Kaushal.
- Clarifications: Junaid Khan and Vicky Kaushal both responded publicly, explaining that they were not upset by the incidents. The bodyguard’s actions were attributed to the chaotic nature of the events, where security personnel are tasked with maintaining order.
- Public Response: While some fans criticized the bodyguards for being too rough, many understood the pressures of maintaining order in a crowded environment filled with celebrities and fans.
Context:
Misunderstandings like these are not new in the world of high-profile events. Celebrities and their teams face intense pressure from the media, fans, and photographers, leading to situations where security teams must act quickly and decisively to clear the way. In this case, it appears the overzealous nature of the bodyguards led to unintended confrontations.
This isn’t the first time bodyguards of Bollywood stars have been caught in such viral moments. In 2022, another viral video showed a similar incident with actor Ranbir Kapoor, where a bodyguard was accused of being too harsh with the crowd. While the details differ, the public reaction remains largely the same—outrage over the incident, followed by a quick resolution and clarifications.
These incidents raise questions about the delicate balance between ensuring security and respecting personal space. Experts suggest that celebrities and their security teams need to find a better balance between protecting their clients and being considerate of the public’s experience at events.
Salman’s security team is expected to continue following stringent protocols at future events, though they may take additional steps to prevent similar misunderstandings.
