Men wanting to control a woman has been a tale being continued for decades. Even after being as big a celebrity as Sangeeta Bijlani, women do have to suffer. Not being able to wear whatever one wants, even when they are financially independent and educated is saddening to the core. To be fair, being told what to do is the worst-case scenario anyway. Salman Khan being at the level that he is, with the influence he has, it could be used to influence the fans in the right way rather than preaching patriarchy.
