Salman Khan's Iconic Hits
Iconic film of Salman Khan, Maine Pyar Kiya, was re-released on August 23, 2024. In one of the old interviews, Salman recalled one shot of this famous song by the name “Kabootar Ja Ja Ja,” which he said brought tears to his eyes. He quoted, “I was around 18 years old, and during the shoot of the song ‘Kabootar Ja Ja Ja’, there was this one moment that just clicked, and I knew this is what I wanted to do. Through various narrations, I would visualize Jackie Shroff or Anil Kapoor for those roles, but somehow, in big films, I could just not imagine myself doing it. That moment was the first time I really felt, ‘Yes, I can do this.’ I had tears in my eyes.”
Promoting Eco-Friendly Celebrations
Salman and Sonali came together for an event to promote eco-friendly Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations.
