As per news, the Coca-Cola dropped Salman Khan as brand
ambassador for its soft drink Thums Up after four years of association. The
contract was to be renewed as it expired last month but the company chose not
to renew it.
The joint statement released by Salman Khan and Coca-Cola tells,
“In light of this, both parties have mutually decided not to renew the current
contract.” The reason for not renewing the contract is Salman's association
with the reality show, Bigg Boss.
Twitterati started accusing Khan for it, writing that it's
because of the controversies he is a part of. Particularly the actor's take on
Pakistani artists telling “they were not terrorists” when asked whether they
should be allowed to work in Indian movies after the Uri attack.
Apparently, Coca-Cola India is in talks with actor Ranveer
Singh to replace 50-year-old Khan. But, the company didn't open up on any sort
of details.
