Salman Khan Shares Family Rift Over Parents' Marriage and Reconciliation

Salman Khan Shares Family Rift Over Parents' Marriage and ReconciliationPreviousNext

Salman Khan revealed on Bigg Boss 20 that his maternal grandfather did not speak to his father, Salim Khan, for five years after his parents' marriage. The disagreement stemmed from his grandfather's concern about his daughter marrying an aspiring actor in the uncertain film industry, not religious reasons. The family rift ended after the birth of Salman’s brother Sohail Khan, leading to reconciliation. Salman also reflected on regrets and the importance of resolving conflicts promptly.
