The life of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is full of stories, both on-screen and off-screen, that leave his fans spellbound. Whether shared by Salman himself or his father, the great Salim Khan, these stories offer a glimpse into the superstar’s personality.
A lesser known story from Bhaijaan’s childhood
One such story, revealed during an appearance on Karan Johar’s talk show, involves a mischievous young Salman, his home cook and the issue of freshly painted walls.
Why did the chef beat Salman?
During the show, Salman recalled the time when his love for Bruce Lee got him into trouble. “This was when I was very young and quite mischievous. Our house had just been painted, and my siblings and I were crazy about Bruce Lee’s martial arts moves,” he shared.
Inspired by their idol, Salman and his siblings decided to recreate Bruce Lee’s iconic fight scenes. Unfortunately, his choice of canvas was the newly painted walls of his home. “We made all kinds of ‘designs’ on the walls during our games. When the chef saw what we had done, he lost it and beat me badly,” Salman confesses with a laugh.
Double trouble: Chef and father join hands
The story did not end here. After reprimanding Salman, Chef takes him to his father Salim Khan to report the loss. “I told my father, ‘Look, the chef has beaten me,'” Salman said. But when Salim Khan came to know the reason behind the chef’s action, he got furious. Salman jokingly said, “First the chef beat me and then my father also joined in. It was a double dose of punishment.”
The naughty side of a superstar
The story highlights Salman’s playful and rebellious nature as a child – a quality that has undoubtedly shaped the charismatic personality that fans love even today. Be it his on-screen charm or off-screen anecdotes, Salman remains a source of entertainment and inspiration.
