Reflecting on his career, Salman said, “Asking an actor to name their favourite movie is usually like asking a parent to pick between their favourite child." Despite the difficulty, he admitted that Maine Pyaar Kiya holds a special place in his heart.

The actor recounted a transformative moment during the shoot for the song ‘Kabootar Ja Ja Ja’. “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,” Salman revealed. This moment marked a turning point in his career, solidifying his confidence and passion for acting.

Looking ahead, Salman Khan is set to dazzle his fans once again with his upcoming film Sikandar, slated for release on Eid 2025. The film, produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by AR Murugadoss, promises to be another blockbuster in Salman’s illustrious career, continuing his legacy as the star of the masses.
