Looks like singer Sona Mohapatra's hatred towards Salman Khan grows with every passing day. Continuing to take jibes at the 'Bharat' actor, Sona Mohapatra took to her Twitter handle to comment on Salman's recent release 'Bharat''s box-office collections.

She wrote: "Q. What do you call filmi superstars that don’t even deliver a single, full week of returns in the public domain despite all the hype, promotions & posturing? A. Paper Tigers (P.S : Stop worshipping these paper tigers dear #India . Let’s find & BE more worthy ‘heros’)"

This is not the first time Sona Mohapatra attacked Salman Khan. A few days back, Sona Mohapatra took to her Twitter handle to take a dig at Salman Khan for making sarcastic remarks on Priyanka Chopra in his interviews.

For those unaware, Priyanka Chopra quit his film 'Bharat' last year citing her wedding with Nick Jonas as the reason. And Salman Khan during 'Bharat' promotions went on to say that Chopra chose USA in the 'nick' of time over 'Bharat'. He then said, "She, over Bharat, did choose USA in the 'nick' of time. She has worked so hard all her life, okay? And when she got the biggest film of her life, she dumped that film and got married. You know, hats off! Usually, people leave their husbands for a film like this.".

So, commenting on this, Sona Mohapatra wrote: "Cus @priyankachopra has better things to do in life, real men to hang out with & more importantly, girls to inspire with her journey.” She added, “A showcase & poster child of toxic masculinity. Low brow dig at not only a woman who was not in the room but a disgusting disregard & contempt for the woman & colleague sitting next to him in the same room. Unless we call out such serial bad behaviour, nothing changes, #India."

Coming back to 'Bharat', the film opened to positive reviews and emerged as Salman's biggest opener by minting Rs 42.30 crore on its first day. 

The film set the cash registers ringing by making a business of Rs 167.60 crore on day seven.

Salman sports five different looks in the film spanning 60 years. The film also features Disha Patani, Sunil Grover, Jackie Shroff, Nora Fatehi and Sonali Kulkarni, and is an official adaptation of the 2014 South Korean movie 'Ode To My Father'.

Salman will next be seen in Prabhu Deva's 'Dabangg 3' and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Inshallah', while Katrina will be seen in Rohit Shetty's 'Sooryavanshi' alongside Akshay Kumar.
