Superstar Salman Khan lashed out at the paparazzi for invading his privacy as he was leaving a city hospital. In a video widely circulating on social media, Khan is seen exiting the premises with his team after a private visit, when the gathered photographers begin trailing him and shouting his name. Some even chant "Maatrubhumi"—the title of his highly anticipated upcoming film—to grab his attention.

Walking toward his car, the actor visibly loses his cool. Turning to confront the photographers, he snaps, “Pagal ho gaye ho? (Have you gone crazy?)”.

Khan then demands to know how they would feel if their own family members were admitted to a hospital and someone entirely disregarded their privacy. The clip ends abruptly as some photographers are heard aplogising.

Following the confrontation, Khan took to Instagram in the early hours of the morning to address the incident, unleashing his fury across four separate posts.

"If I see any press at a hospital enjoying my pain. The press that I have stood for interacted with taken care made sure that they also earn their bread n butter," his first post read.

He followed it up with a second, writing: "But if they wanna make money from my losses…. keep quiet don't enjoy. bhai bhai bhai matrabhumi picture ki maaa ki aankh, pic imp hai ya life (Forget about the picture, what matters more, a film or someone’s life?)."

In his final two posts, Khan issued an ultimatum to the paps, warning that he wouldn't tolerate a repeat offense.

"I'll burn a hundred of you down like this. Next time, try pulling this stunt when one of my brothers is going through pain—just try it with me once...)," he wrote, before adding in the next post, "I may have turned 60, but don’t forget that I still know how to fight. And sure, put me in jail."

It remains unconfirmed who the actor was visiting at Hinduja Hospital.
