Salman Khan – Lawrence Bishnoi feud: Somy Ali refuses to talk any further on the controversy; says her earlier comments ‘led to a wave of misinterpretations and distractions…’

Actress and social worker Somy Ali has been in the eye of a storm recently, due to her comments on former boyfriend Salman Khan and his feud with Lawrence Bishnoi. Apart from this, in a recent session on Reddit, Somy also alleged that actor Sushant Singh Rajput did not die of suicide, rather he was murdered. However, she has now come clean on the entire controversy, saying all her comments had been taken out of context…

Taking to her IG handle, she wrote, “I want to take a moment to address the recent controversy surrounding a Reddit session that has gone viral. My purpose in participating in the session was solely to promote No More Tears, my NGO dedicated to supporting victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. Unfortunately, some comments made in my name by Akshay Sharma, the Vice President of No More Tears about Salman Khan and even Sushant Singh Rajput’s death without my knowledge or approval, led to a wave of misinterpretations and distractions. Everyone knows I can’t type so fast in a live session.
I’ve spent the past 17 years deeply committed to helping survivors of abuse and trafficking, and it is incredibly disappointing to see the narrative shift toward unrelated and controversial topics. I have no interest in discussing individuals from my past or anything beyond the work we do at No More Tears. I agreed to the session to raise awareness of my NGO’s mission, not to create controversy.

I am no more interested in giving zoom video interviews where they ask only about Salman to raise TRP of their news shows. Moving forward, I will be limiting my media interactions to ensure the focus remains on No More Tears. After living quietly for 14 years, I only started speaking with the media three years ago to help raise awareness for my work. This exposure has helped build support for the organization, and I’m immensely grateful for those who have joined in our mission.”
She added, “Despite facing trolling and negativity, I remain focused and determined. I appeal to everyone to join me in stopping abuse of any kind. We are all humans, deserving of equal rights and a life of dignity. As Rajesh Khanna beautifully said, “Zindagi bahut khoobsurat hai, jeene ka salika aana chhaiye”—Life is very beautiful; one must know how to live it.

Thank you for your support. Let’s keep the focus on what truly matters: helping those in need and creating a world where everyone is free from abuse.
With gratitude,
Somy”
