When Salman Khan CRIED during ‘Maine Pyar Kiya' shoot: 'I was 18 years old and...'

Bollywood's Bhaijaan Salman Khan is known for his dashing and bold personality. With a tough guy image, action-packed roles, and unbeatable screen presence, he rarely shows his soft side. But in a surprising and touching revelation, the superstar opened up about a moment on set that left him in tears. It all happened during the filming of his much-loved debut film 'Maine Pyar Kiya', and the reason behind those tears is enough to melt hearts. Emotional moment struck during song shoot 'Maine Pyar Kiya', released in 1989, was directed by Sooraj Barjatya and featured Bhagyashree as the female lead. While shooting the popular song 'Kabootar Ja Ja Ja', Salman had an unexpected and deeply emotional moment that changed everything for him. He finally saw himself as a hero In a heartfelt interview with Hello! Indo-Arabia, Salman shared, 'I was about 18 years old, and there was a truly memorable moment during the shoot for the song Kabootar Ja Ja Ja when I suddenly knew that this was the role for me. During several narrations, I'd imagine Jackie Shroff or Anil Kapoor in those roles, but I could never actually see myself doing big films. That moment was the first time I really felt, 'Yes, I can do this'. I had tears in my eyes.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pierce Brosnan's Wife Lost 120 Pounds - This Is Her Now Undo A letter straight from the heart After the film's grand success, Salman reached out to his fans through an open letter. In it, he thanked them for accepting him with open arms and spoke about how he was now choosing his projects with greater responsibility. 'Here is a little something I want you guys to know about me. Firstly, I have to thank you for accepting me and for being my fans. I am doing and concentrating on good scripts to the best of my judgement, because I know that whatever I do now will be compared to Maine Pyaar Kiya. So whenever you hear an announcement, rest assured that it is going to be a good film, and I am going to give it my 100 per cent. I love you and I hope that you will keep on loving me because the day you stop loving me, you'll stop seeing my films and that is the end of my career. Remember, you are the people who make people like us.' Bhaijaan's journey continues Since that emotional moment on the set of 'Maine Pyar Kiya', Salman Khan has never looked back. Over the years, he has delivered some of Bollywood's biggest hits, earning a loyal fanbase and becoming one of the most iconic actors in the industry. He was last seen in 'Sikandar', directed by AR Murugadoss. Fans are now eagerly waiting for his next big release, 'Battle of Galwan', directed by Apoorva Lakhia . The upcoming war drama is based on the 2020 Galwan Valley conflict and has already created a strong buzz.

Rejecting the term 'star kid' as a label, he called himself the 'poster boy of anti-nepotism,' and stressed that while everyone deserves a chance, sustaining in the industry is entirely up to individual merit.
