Truth About Salman Khan – What People Don’t Know

The Salman you don’t know

40 things you don’t know about Salman Khan. Filmfare tells it like it is

Salman Khan 

Okay, he may have had several high profile relationships. But Salman has a problem uttering the all important three words women want to hear:
I love you

He’s never wooed a girl with candle-lit dinners, chocolates or rose bouquets… Well, if the girls swooning at his feet are anything to go by, he must be doing it right.

He tried his hand at modelling before acting. He also worked as an assistant director straight out of college.

He confesses he’s a difficult boyfriend. You don’t need to be Albert Einstein to guess that.

Before he became an actor, he had written three scripts. Baaghi was one of them. We want to forget that Chandra Mukhi and Veer were the other two.

The first time he showed his pictures to a production house, he was shown the door. Stupid people didn’t think he had what it takes to be a star. Guess who’s having the last laugh

Back in the ’90s girls kept an eye out in Bandra for a shirtless hunk who’d drive around casually in his jeep. No points for guessing who he was. Moving around shirtless is his favourite activity.

He’s never worked in a film written by his father Salim Khan.

As a kid, Salman was terribly scared of his father. Young Salman once set newspapers on fire in his balcony. And he was thrashed by his dad.

Now this one’s a shocker! Until recently, Salman had no one handling his finances. Apparently, he’d give his cheques to daddy dearest. Chweet na? We hear
he has hired an agency to look after his finances now.

The reason why Arbaaz Khan, as a kid, didn’t get beaten up by dad was because Sallu bhai always came to his rescue.

According to his dad Salim Khan, ‘uska har problem raat ke 11 bajey se lekar teen baje tak hota hain!’ (All his problems occur between 11pm and 3 am!) Ha!

He was 13, when he started dating! And he hasn’t stopped yet.

His favourite colour is black.

One person who suffers serious nightmares even today is Salman’s English teacher, Mrs Arghya. He troubled her the most in school.

Guess who was the first choice for Baazigar?
Yup, you got that right. But Sallu made it to the top anyway.

Ever since he was embroiled in the black buck case, he hasn’t set foot in Jodhpur. But we’re told he’s allergic to the city. We don’t blame him.

Don’t call him Bhai if you dont know him. Be warned before its too late

When he was lodged in Thane jail for the hit and run case, he’d share his home-cooked food with the inmates much to their delight. It’s also said that he donated TV sets to the jail after his release.

An ex-girl friend once pointed out the grey strands in his hair.
Obviously, pointing out that age was fast catching up and that he was on his way out. Salman simply smiled.

How does he bounce back from depression? He just looks around at the lesser fortunate people. And then sends up a
prayer of gratitude.

Salman Khan is still in touch with his ex-Somy Ali. Reportedly, He’s even bought her a flat in Dubai.

He never reads the reviews of his movies.

He finds it absurd that box-office pundits take his work seriously when he’s done it so casually! Well…

He believes people can’t stand him for more than five minutes. Now, now. Don’t the box-office collections say something else?

Salman can be mercurial. What he likes today can easily be on his hate list, two months from now.

Remember Veer? He had big plans to direct it. Better sense prevailed.

Believe it or faint, Ek Tha Tiger was Salman’s first ever Yash Raj solo film.

Don’t people usually try out clothes before buying them? Well Salman Khan doesn’t see the need for it.

He feels awkward working with Kareena. After all he’s seen this Kapoor as a six-year old kid roaming on his sets in frocks.

Once he put a ‘Do not disturb’ board on director Shirish Kunder’s van while they were shooting for Jaan-E-Mann. Naturally, no one disturbed the director. When Shirish turned up late on the set, Salman threw a fit. Ofcourse, it was in mock anger.

He can go from a 32” waist to a 30” in two flat days. Tell us the secret, Salman.

When it comes to clothes he’s finicky about the fit. He’d rather wear a cheap shirt if it fits well than ill-fitting designer wear.

Once he got to know that 35 women workers on his set wanted sarees. He promptly sent his Man Friday to buy them.

Technology doesn’t excite him. He blames Arbaaz for introducing him to Twitter.

Salman Khan

When he went bald for Tere Naam, he loved his look so much that he made his make-up man and spot boy shave their heads too. Tee hee!

He has a fetish for sunglasses.  His collection is something he takes immense pride in.

Salman Khan

He endured trigeminal neuralgia (TN) for seven years. He couldn’t talk or act properly. This facial nerve disorder sends a shock-like pain to the forehead, cheek and jaw and is said to trigger the maximum suicides.

Salman Khan

While suffering TN, it would take him an hour and half to finish an omelette. He could eat only after 2-3 drinks. Alcohol numbed his senses.

He thinks a biography on his life is pointless. He won’t speak the truth and no one’s interested in the lies. True that!
