“Salman Khan was going through a low phase during Tere Naam”, reveals Ravi Kishan

In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Ravi said, "He (Salman Khan) is a good man and soul. Tere Naam ke dauran low phase tha, mai uska gawah raha (He had a low phase during Tere Naam, I'm witness to that). But, the way he used to work out even during his phase, hitting the gym for 1-1.5 hours.”

He further added, “I have learnt from him that no matter how sad you're in life, whatever you may be going through, heartbreak, body break or brain break or maybe you're just tired from shooting, one should work out for 1.5-2 hours. Iron aapka wafadar dost hai. Sablog dhokha de sakte hai, loha aapko dhokha kabhi nahi dega. Toh, lohe se prem kar liya hai Salman Khan ne (Iron is your loyal friend. Everyone is capable of betraying you but not iron. Hence, Salman fell in love with iron)."

When asked if Salman was under-confident during the same time, Ravi denied. He said, "No. I think Tere Naam gave him energy. Bohot khoye huye rehte they us film mein (he used to be lost in the film). Uska result bhi, it's one his finest performances."

Tere Naam, directed by Satish Kaushik, starred Salman Khan with Bhumika Chawla. Ravi Kishan played a supporting role in the film, which gave his career a breakthrough.

Having said that, it is worth noting that the actor's personal life was in turmoil at that time. In 2002, he reportedly broke up with actress Aishwarya Rai.
