Salman Khan labelled as TERRORIST by Pakistan? Here’s the truth behind VIRAL social media claim

Bollywood actor Salman Khan has recently become a subject of controversy following a claim that he was placed on Pakistan’s terror watchlist. This assertion originated from a social media post that references a notification dated October 16, 2025, allegedly issued by the Balochistan Government, labeling him as a “terrorist” and an “Azad Balochistan Facilitator.” The claim arose after Khan’s comments at the Joy Forum 2025 in Riyadh, where he highlighted the international impact of Indian cinema while mentioning the Balochistan region, prompting accusations of supporting separatist sentiments.

However, investigations reveal several concerns regarding the authenticity of the notification. There has been no confirmation from any reliable Pakistani official channels, and visible inconsistencies in the document raise doubts about its legitimacy, including the absence of characteristic features typical of official documents. Linguistic errors further contribute to skepticism among experts.

As of now, Salman Khan has not publicly addressed these allegations, but a close associate of his described the claims as groundless and the result of online trolling. The incident highlights ongoing sensitivities surrounding the Balochistan issue and the scrutiny public figures face regarding their statements.
