In an interview with a Pakistani news show today, Salman Khan said that the terrorist attacks had got a disproportionate amount of attention because two exclusive hotels had been targeted.
The former Bollywood screenwriter told an Indian news channel that his son is not "political" and "articulate", The Times of India has reported.
Salim said: "He should [come forward in front of the media] and apologise and he will... He will definitely say sorry and this [repeated telecast of his comments] should be stopped immediately... I'd like to express that we should not spread the [wrong] word and add fuel to fire."
Since the broadcast, Khan has tweeted that he will never do live interviews again.
