Salman Bhai Turns Matchmaker for Industry, Helped these Star Couples!

In addition to arranging for Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif to meet, Salman Khan also took Abhishek Bachchan to see Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Salman Khan may still be a Bollywood-eligible bachelor, but he has occasionally—actually, more than occasionally—made headlines because of partnerships. Actresses including Katrina Kaif, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sangeeta Bijlani, Somy Ali, and others have dated The Bhaijaan on B’wood. However, his interactions with the first two attracted the greatest media attention.

Did you know Salman facilitated both of his ex-girlfriends’ on-screen relationships with their future partners, even if their romances ultimately ended for various reasons? Yes, Salman accompanied Abhishek Bachchan to visit Aishwarya while assisting Ranbir Kapoor in staying with Katrina. For those who don’t know, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Salman Khan’s romance grew in the late 1990s, but they broke up in 2001 after a contentious breakup in which Aish accused Salman of verbal, emotional, and physical assault. Regarding Katrina Kaif, the Tiger co-star and Salman apparently grew close in 2009, but she broke things off with him in 2010 due to her attachment to Kapoor.

The video begins with the narrator saying, “Salman Khan ne apne do movies mein current girlfriends ko unke future boyfriends se milaya.” He continues, “Ek toh sabko pata hi hai…” The video then shows a still from the 2009 film Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, where Ranbir Kapoor’s Prem introduces Salman’s then gf Katrina as his girlfriend, Jenny. The ‘Tiger 3’ actor responds, “Abey, tu aisa daar daar ke mila raha hai jaise tu meri girlfriends ko apni girlfend bata raha

The narrator then added, “Par dusri movie mein woh literally ladke ko lift dete hai aur apni girlfriend se milwate hai.” Showing a scene from Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke, we hear Khan says, “Tumhari manzil aa gayi hai” as he shakes Abhishek Bachchan’s hand, and the latter responds with a “Thankyou”. The narrator then added, “Guess who is Abhishek going to meet in the truck..” The video then shows a clip of Bachchan in front of how now-wife and Salman’s ex-girlfriend Aishwarya Rai Bachchan as she stands with Anupam Kher in front of a temple.

The narrator ends the video by advising, “Toh Salman Khan, if you are watching this there’s a tip, apne girlfriends ki movies mein special appearance karna band karo. Koi fyada nahi bhai. (Salman if you are watching this, I advice please stop making special cameo appearances in your girlfriends’ movies. It’s of no use.)”

Salman is still unmarried, although Aishwarya and Abhishek have been together for sixteen years and have a daughter. In contrast, Katrina Kaif parted ways with Ranbir Kapoor and wed Vicky Kaushal in December 2021.
