“Agar aap urban, elite, liberal hote jaise bahut hai jinke 2 biwi hai, main naam nahi lena chahta logon ke jo samjho film stars hai, urban elites hai, unpe itne judgemental shayad hi honge. Maine aapke sath time guzara hai (if you were urban, elite, liberal, there are many who have 2 wives. I don’t wanna take names but for example, we have film stars who are urban elites. We may not be that judgemental towards them. I have spent with you guys), I don’t feel judgemental about it.” This prompted many to wonder: Was Shorey referring to personalities like Salman Khan’s father Salim Khan and Dharmendra?

Salim Khan, the acclaimed screenwriter, has openly maintained relationships with both Salma Khan and Helen, a dynamic that has been widely acknowledged and accepted. Similarly, Dharmendra, the iconic actor, has been married to Prakash Kaur and Hema Malini, both relationships being public and respected. While Ranvir did not explicitly name these figures, his comments seemed to hint at them, drawing parallels between their experiences and the situation of Armaan and Kritika Malik.

Along with making the statement, he also emphasized the importance of respecting personal relationships that are built on mutual understanding and consent, regardless of how unconventional they might appear.
