Online reaction focuses on Salman Khan after a video clip of him supporting Katrina Kaif amid postpartum-related bodyshaming goes viral. In the footage discussed by outlets, Khan appears to stand by Kaif as criticism spreads online about her body following childbirth.
As the clip circulates on social media, some users describe Khan using the Gen Z term “Pookie,” framing it as an affectionate way to praise him for speaking up in support of a person facing harassment. The coverage centers on the scale and tone of the internet’s response rather than specific details of the bodyshaming claims themselves.
Across the reporting, the emphasis is on public sentiment: the same viral theme—Khan’s backing of Kaif in the context of postpartum body comments—and the resulting wave of online compliments using “Pookie.”
