The interview quotes the 50-year-old star as saying, "When I used to walk out of the ring, after the shoot, I used to feel like a raped woman. I couldn't walk straight."
Salman Khan's quote has evoked outrage on social media with Twitterati terming his comments 'insensitive' and demanding an apology.
Here are some reactions on Twitter:
Salman Khan compared his shooting schedule to what a "raped woman" feels like. Is that worse than Lata-Sachin jokes, Bollywood?

Wow..@BeingSalmanKhan compared his shooting schedule for #Sultan to him feeling like a raped woman...is he for real?? #ridiculous #epicfail

I know Salman Khan has fans. But if his female fans are ok with his "I felt like a raped woman" then I've just lost faith in the world.

So Salman compares a physically demanding shoot to a woman getting raped! #beingmoron #SalmanKhan #Sultanshoot

@BeingSalmanKhan don't know if you know this but rape is not what they show in Hindi films. You owe an apology to for your comment. #salman

kindly remove humanitarian from your bio @BeingSalmanKhan . There cannot be anything more inhuman than using raped woman analogy. SHAME

People who use the term rape casually. Do you realize it is not just about force but about destructing someone's esteem?

Bollywood has an opinion on everything. Just not on the sick insensitivity of one of their own.. @BeingSalmanKhan pic.twitter.com/ueoEqT4947

Some users, however, raised the point of Salman Khan being 'misquoted'.
Seconds after Salman gave that statement he said: don't take that in literal sense, what i mean is I could not walk
