Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has once again sent the internet into a frenzy – this time with his strikingly lean and fit new look. A recent photo shared by his Race 3 co-star Saajan Singh has taken social media by storm, marking one of the rare glimpses fans have had of Khan since the release of Sikandar during Eid earlier this year.

In the now-viral photo, Salman Khan is seen happily posing at his residence with Saajan Singh and the latter’s family. The picture not only sparked admiration for Khan’s toned-down and fitter appearance but also reignited curiosity about the actor’s next big move. Sharing the heartfelt moment on Instagram, Saajan Singh wrote, “Thank you Sir for opening your arms, home and heart to us. Blessed & grateful @beingsalmankhan”. The warm caption has only added to the admiration pouring in for the actor—not just for his physique but for his generosity and humility off-screen.

While Khan has remained tight-lipped about his upcoming projects, speculation is rife that his transformation may be linked to an upcoming film with director Apoorva Lakhia. Although there has been no official announcement from either the actor or the filmmaker, industry insiders suggest that the project could be based on real-life events and would require Khan to portray a decorated Indian Army officer.

We at Bollywood Hungama have exclusively reported on this development earlier wherein a source close to the project had said, “Given the high-altitude challenges of shooting in Leh and the physical demands of portraying a decorated Army officer like Colonel Bikumalla Santosh Babu, Salman has committed to an intense training regimen. He’s not just preparing to carry the weight of the uniform – he’s carrying the weight of the story. The AK-47 he’ll be seen with is symbolic, but the real test is enduring the thinner air, long shoots, and rugged terrain. This prep isn’t just physical; it’s about doing justice to a national hero.”

The actor’s fans have taken to social media to express excitement and curiosity about this rumored project, especially with his visible transformation fuelling the buzz.

Raanjhanaa fan screening: Aanand L Rai explains how he convinced CBFC members to retain abuses: “Hum phone pe gaaliyaan discuss kar rahe the! I told them, ‘Yeh gaali hum teen baar rakh dete hai. Itne c-word important nahin hai. Yeh do rakh lo’!” : Bollywood News

The fan screening of Raanjhanaa (2013) was held at a multiplex in Mumbai on the occasion of its 12th anniversary by DIY Solutions and was attended by the film’s team – actors Dhanush and Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub, then-child-actor Naman Jain, director Aanand L Rai, writer Himanshu Sharma and lyricist Irshad Kamil. Sonam Kapoor couldn’t make it and the team kept a picture of her on the seat. The event began with the screening of the film after which stand-up comic Devansh Singh entertained the crowd. Laksh Maheshwari, then, in his trademark style narrated the film’s story and also hosted the talk. Amid news of the amusing and unjustified cuts asked by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) for the latest release, the Aamir Khan-starrer Sitaare Zameen Par, the talk veered towards the situation 12 years ago. Was Raanjhanaa also censored? If yes, then how much? After all, we can see that certain abuses were retained but, in some scenes, the cuss words were beeped.

Aanand L Rai explained, “Now, the intention with which you make is of paramount importance. I can’t reveal the discussion I had with the Censor Board at that time. Hum phone pe gaaliyaan discuss kar rahe the! There was even a lady in their team. We were openly discussing, ‘Yeh gaali hum teen baar rakh dete hai. Itne c-word important nahin hai. Yeh do rakh lo’!”

He continued, “I realized that there was a reason behind those abuses. Hence, I was able to freely mention those words without hesitation in front of them. Even today, if I apply such a film to the Censor Board aur agar meri neeyat saaf hai, I am sure Raanjhanaa would have been cleared in the same way!”

Meanwhile, a female fan expressed regret over the fact that the character of Bindiya (Swara Bhasker) got a raw deal. She loved Kundan (Dhanush) with all her heart and ideally, they both should have ended up together. She asked Aanand L Rai, “Why did you do this to Bindiya?” The filmmaker patiently heard her and answered her question by saying, “Taaki aapko woh character yaad rahein!” The host also asked the audience, at this point, to cheer for Swara for her stupendous performance along with that of Abhay Deol.

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has once again sparked headlines — this time not for his trademark wit or upcoming releases, but for an honest revelation about his ongoing health battles. Appearing on The Great Indian Kapil Show, the actor candidly spoke about the physical toll years of action cinema have taken on him, revealing a series of serious medical conditions he continues to work through.

In a moment that took fans and even host Kapil Sharma by surprise, Salman Khan said, “So hum ye jitni bhi haddiyan tudva rahe hai, pasliyan toot gayi, trigeminal neuralgia tha uske bawajud kaam kare, aneurysm hai brain mein uske bawajud kaam kar rahe hai, AV malformations hai, uske bawajud chal rahe hai… Action, yaha se kudna, waha se girna, chalne ko nahi ho raha, dance kar rahe hai… ye sab chal raha hai… aur jaha unka mood satka, woh aadha humara le kar chala gaya. (We’ve been breaking bones, my ribs are fractured, I had trigeminal neuralgia but kept working, I have a brain aneurysm and yet continue, I have AV malformations and I’m still going… Action scenes, jumping from here, falling there — even when I can’t walk, I dance… All of this is happening — and the day my mood snapped, it took half of me with it)”

The revelation gave fans a glimpse into the immense physical hardship Salman has endured while continuing to work on high-octane films, often packed with action and dance sequences. Despite the gravity of his conditions — including trigeminal neuralgia (a chronic pain condition), brain aneurysm, and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) — the actor emphasized his commitment to his craft.

This isn’t the first time Salman’s candid moments on the show have gone viral. As reported earlier by Bollywood Hungama, the actor previously made headlines for his tongue-in-cheek comments on marriage and divorce, saying: “Shaadi aur divorce dono hi nahi hue… inke wajah se kaafi paise bach gaye (I am neither married nor divorced, so saved a lot of money there).”

With each appearance, Salman Khan continues to balance humour, vulnerability, and stardom — making his episodes on The Great Indian Kapil Show a trending staple for fans and viewers alike.

Legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan has penned an emotional tribute to his son Abhishek Bachchan following the release of the trailer for his upcoming film Kaalidhar Laapata. In a deeply personal note shared on his blog, Big B reflected on legacy, courage, and the essence of true inheritance, quoting his father, the iconic poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan.

Amitabh Bachchan pens emotional tribute to Abhishek Bachchan: “They that shall be my inheritors, shall be my sons”

“मेरे बेटे, बेटे होने से मेरे उत्तराधिकारी नहीं हींगें ; जो मेरे उत्तराधिकारी होंगे वो मेरे बेटे होंगे (My sons, just because you are my sons shall not be my inheritors; they that shall be my inheritors, shall be my sons)”

Calling Kaalidhar Laapata a significant milestone, Amitabh praised Abhishek’s unwavering commitment to his craft, commending his fearless choices as an actor. “Each role he has accepted and played has been with immense dedication. He has ever delivered the character to perfection. His choice of films and roles has guided him to try something different.”

The trailer for Kaalidhar Laapata, which dropped recently, features Abhishek Bachchan as a middle-aged man grappling with memory loss and the emotional aftermath of abandonment. The powerful premise has already struck a chord with audiences and now carries the emotional weight of Amitabh’s public endorsement.

Recalling a personal moment from his youth, Amitabh quoted a profound message written in his autograph book by celebrated poet Shri Ramdhari Singh Dinkar, “Success comes to those who dare and act.” “‘Act’ not in reference to acting on stage or film but in life — to dare and to act.” “Abhishek has ever done that. He has dared to take on films and characters that challenged him. And he ‘acted’. He dared to act and be recognised.”

The tribute ends with a powerful declaration from a father to his son: “My admiration to my inheritor, my Son.”

Amitabh also shared the trailer on his social media, writing: “My prayers Abhishek… your ability to choose different roles and films and to immerse yourself in them… and succeed… a very rare quality. Love and blessings.”

With this emotional endorsement, Kaalidhar Laapata carries not just cinematic promise but the weight of a father’s faith — a legacy passed not by name, but by action.
