Throwback to Previous Jokes on Family Divorces
Revealing the Inspiration Behind His 'Tere Naam' Hairstyle
Comedian Kapil Sharma has made a triumphant return with the third season of The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix , which premiered its new season on June 21, 2025. The inaugural episode was a vibrant blend of laughter and celebrity banter, featuring none other than Bollywood superstar Salman Khan as the special guest. His presence brought high energy, quick wit, and characteristic tongue-in-cheek humour, setting the tone for another entertaining season.During the episode, Salman didn't shy away from poking fun at personal matters. According to a report by Koimoi, he made a sharp, albeit humorous, comment regarding his younger brother Sohail Khan's past relationship with Seema Sajdeh. The couple had tied the knot in 1998, with Seema famously eloping with Sohail just days before her arranged wedding with Vikram Ahuja.The pair enjoyed over two decades together and became parents to two sons, Yohan and Nivraan. However, their marriage ended in 2022. Presently, Seema is reportedly in a relationship with her former fiancé, Vikram Ahuja. On the comedy platform of TGIKS, Salman made light of the situation with a quick jibe, "Wo bhi bhag gayi," suggesting Seema had "run away" once again.In the same episode, Salman was asked about Aamir Khan's recent public introduction of his third romantic partner, Gauri Spratt , during his birthday celebrations earlier this year. Responding in his trademark style, Salman described Aamir as a remarkable individual and noted that his 'Andaz Apna Apna' co-star has always pursued perfection in every aspect of life. He joked that Aamir may keep getting married until he feels he has perfected the institution but expressed hope that this new relationship would be the one that truly works out."Aamir ki baat hi kuch aur hai. He is an outstanding person. Puri duniya janti hai, he's a perfectionist. Jab tak voh marriage ko perfect nahi kar leta, voh karte jayega. I think yeh last hai uska. Yeh perfect hoga. Perfect banake chhodenge," he quipped.Salman's tendency to blend humour with personal commentary isn't new. In a previous season of The Kapil Sharma Show , he humorously addressed his brothers' divorces. When asked whether his brothers had watched his then-new movie Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, Salman remarked that despite being the eldest, his younger siblings often disregard his advice, including when it comes to relationships. Though he acknowledged that the family remains close despite their challenges, he admitted things have become more complex post-divorce.During the same appearance, Salman also shared an interesting detail about his look in the film Tere Naam. The hairstyle, which became iconic in the early 2000s, was actually inspired by the late Indian President Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. Salman added that actor Rahul Roy had earlier sported a similar look in one of his films.Tere Naam, directed by Satish Kaushik, remains one of Salman's most critically appreciated performances and marked the Bollywood debut of actress Bhumika Chawla. The film was a remake of the Tamil classic Sethu, originally starring Vikram.

Also, previously, the film received criticism for intimate moments with 70-year-old Haasan and 42-year-old Krishnan in the trailer.

Puneet Issar Recalls Salman Khan's Struggles During Hit-And-Run Trial: ‘He Was Disturbed But...'
Last Updated: Director Puneet Issar opens up about Salman Khan's emotional struggle while filming Garv amid the 2002 hit-and-run case. Actor-director Puneet Issar has reflected on a turbulent chapter in Salman Khan's life — a time when the actor was caught in the eye of a legal storm following the 2002 hit-and-run case — and how he remained professionally committed during the filming of Garv: Pride & Honour (2004). In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Issar opened up about Salman's mindset during that difficult time and the role his family, especially father Salim Khan, played in guiding him. 'Obviously, the man was disturbed," Puneet said, recalling Salman's emotional state. 'Ultimately, his family members decided that he should start work and concentrate on it." Issar revealed that Salman's father, screenwriter Salim Khan, made it clear that work would be a stabilizing force for the actor. 'Salim sahab maintained that during that phase of Salman's life, he should just work. Salim sahab told me to tell Salman to stay busy at work, and this was a collective decision taken by his family. It was the right decision and that's what he did," Puneet added. Despite the ongoing court case, intense media glare, and public scrutiny, Salman did not allow the turmoil to derail his professional commitments. Puneet, who directed Garv, noted that Salman showed remarkable resilience and continued to deliver on set. 'His morale was very good on set. He is a professional. He has a comfort zone, he works in that, he would come, work out and shoot," Puneet said. The Garv shoot coincided with one of the most trying times in Salman's life. In 2002, the actor was accused of driving his Toyota Land Cruiser over a group of people sleeping on a footpath in Mumbai's Bandra area, killing one and injuring others. It was also alleged that he was intoxicated at the time. In 2015, the Bombay High Court acquitted Salman of all charges, ruling that the prosecution had failed to prove its case. Justice A.R. Joshi said there was not enough evidence to prove Salman was inebriated or driving the vehicle. First Published: July 03, 2025, 16:13 IST
