Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has sent his reply to the National Commission for Women over a notice sent to him last week. Salman had been served a notice and asked to respond and apologise within seven days over his 'raped woman' comment. NCW chief Lalitha Kumaramangalam sought a public apology from the Bollywood actor and asked for an explanation.

The actor has not apologised as yet, say reports.

The Maharashtra State Commission for Women has also followed up with another notice to the Bollywood actor.


Salman in a recent interview said that he "felt like a raped woman" during the shooting of the film, Sultan, drawing the wrath of fans and women activists alike.

Dubbing Salman's comment as 'irresponsible and careless', Kumaramangalam said that the actor would be summoned if his explanation is unsatisfactory.

Salman made the comments during an interview with entertainment website spotboye.com to promote Sultan that tells the story of an ageing wrestler trying to make a comeback.

"When I used to walk out of the ring, after the shoot, I used to feel like a raped woman. I couldn't walk straight," the 50-year-old actor said last week.
