Salman Khan believes women look more beautiful when they are covered, says Daisy Shah: ‘He covered me with a blanket because my dress was short’
Salman Khan's co-star Daisy Shah said that he asked to cover her up in a blanket because he felt that her dress was too short.

Salman Khan is strict with the women who work on his film set. The women who work as crew are supposed to dress in a modest manner and this rule about costumes is also applicable on the women who share the screen with him. In a recent interview, his Race 3 and Jai Ho co-star Daisy Shah shared that Salman believes that “women look more beautiful when they are covered up.”
In a chat with Hauterrfly, when Daisy was asked how Salman supports the women on his set and if he manages to create a safe environment for them, Daisy shared that Salman believes that women must not be shown as “showpieces” in his films. She added, “For him, ladki ko jitna dhakoge, utni hi zyada sundar dikhegi (a woman will look more beautiful if you cover her up)”
Describing him as “caring”, Daisy recalled working with him in her big screen debut, Jai Ho, and shared that in one particular shot, Salman felt that her dress was “weird” so he asked that she should be covered up in a blanket. “There was this one outfit that I was supposed to wear… This was supposed to be a scene in the morning when I had just woken up. He found my dress to be a little weird so he said, cover her in a blanket,” she recalled. Daisy shared that this was a part of the song and “according to him, that night dress was a little too short.”
In 2023, Palak Tiwari had revealed that Salman was very strict about women dressing modestly on his set. She shared with Sidharth Kannan, “When I was AD-ing with Salman sir on Antim, Salman sir had a rule: ‘every girl on my set, the neckline should be here, all the girls should be covered, like good proper girls’.” She also added, “He’s a traditionalist. Of course, he’s like, ‘Jo pehenna hai pehno,’ but he’s also like my girls should always be protected. If there are men around who he doesn’t personally know, it’s not his personal space where he doesn’t trust everyone, he’s like, the girl should be safe, always.”
