Looks like Salman Khan is a favourite of the season... After being getting into wrong books of paparazzi, the actor became the target of jibe of businessman and Shilpa Shetty`s husband Raj Kundra - which irked Salman`s ardent fans.

Of late Kundra took pride of his own income and poked fun at Salman`s earnings in an interview. He was of the opinion that in a month he earns more than what Salman gets with one movie. Kundra was quoted, "The amount Salman Khan earns from one film, I make in a month!" He further commented that he is doesn`t see any fun in being like Salman. He even boasted, "I can bet Salman doesn`t earn that much...well, at least nowhere near me,"

This was not taken lightly by Salman`s fans. Many of them took to micro-blogging site to vent out their anger. Some of them went thus -

"@TheRajKundra you earn plenty of money than what Salman Khan earns but u can`t earn the love & respect that he has earned in your lifetime."

"Raj Kundra comparing himself to Salman khan is lyk KRK comparing himself with Mr. Bachchan.."

"@TheRajKundra`s comments on Salman r in such a bad taste.does anybody know him also?except that he is @TheShilpaShetty`s husband"

Now we wonder how Salman will take this... Given the fact, he has good rapport with Shilpa Shetty for having worked with him earlier. Well, on another note, all these controversies seems to be happening at right time, when the star`s film Kick` is slated to release (on 25th July)...
