Luck would have it, was thrown to a corner of the room.
Salman obviously was taken aback and slapped the youngster. 'The shocked fan', said the eyewitness 'was thrown to a corner of the room'. As Salman's luck would have it, a top news channel had captured these moments on camera!
Salman's bodyguards saw it and demanded the footage be deleted. Salman too stepped in and requested the same.
