Notably, a video went viral on social media, August 20 where an Odia Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) officer stopped Salman Khan from entering the airport and asked him to get in line and complete his security check. Salman Khan was heading towards Russia for the shoot of his next movie Tiger 3. He also told the photographers to stay back.
Earlier in some reports it was claimed that the officer, identified as ASI Somnath Mohanty of Nayagarh district, had landed in trouble for interacting with one of the news media channel of Odisha.
However, CISF replied to a tweet of journalist and wrote “The contents of this tweet are incorrect & without factual basis. In fact, the officer concerned has been suitably rewarded for exemplary professionalism in the discharge of his duty.”
