He also said that Salman Khan was planning to file a defamation case against Kunal. Now, the latest update states that Bhaijaan is not filing any defamation case against Kunal Kamra. 

Zoom quoted a close friend of Salman saying, "If he (Salman Khan) sued everyone who abused him, he would be in and out of courtrooms. Over the years, Salman has come to terms with his controversial attackable image. He knows mentioning his name, especially in a derogatory context, gets attention. So no, he isn't suing this guy (Kunal Kamra)". The friend added, “His father, Salim Khan, counsels him (Salman) to ignore insults. Salim saab tells Salman they are just a way of grabbing attention.”
