Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has once again captured the internet's heart, not with a high-tech reel, but with a charmingly simple throwback video. Shared in a true retro style, the clip has sent fans on a nostalgic trip, reminding them of simpler days while celebrating the actor's enduring star power.
A Nostalgic Gesture Wins Hearts
The video, which quickly went viral on social media platform X, shows Salman Khan in a casual black t-shirt. In a playful nod to the past, he is seen creating a "post" by sealing a video clip inside an envelope, mimicking how letters were sent long ago. The actor captioned the post: “Posting the old fashioned way…” This vintage charm, devoid of any modern app filters, resonated deeply with his audience, amassing thousands of likes and shares.
This fun gesture underscores why Salman Khan remains a beloved icon even at 60. While he joined the social media fray relatively recently, he has since mastered the art of engagement. He regularly treats his massive following to glimpses of his daily life, intense workout regimes, and sneak peeks of upcoming projects, keeping the buzz alive.
On the Work Front: Gearing Up for 'Battle of Galwan'
While fans enjoy his personal posts, Salman Khan is deep into preparation for his next cinematic venture. The actor will be seen next in the highly anticipated film 'Battle of Galwan'. A teaser was dropped on his birthday, offering a powerful first look.
The teaser opens with a gripping dialogue from Salman: “Jawaano yaad rahe, zakham lage to medal samajhna, aur maut dikhe to salaam karna aur kehna, ‘Aaj nahi, phir kabhi.’” This sets the tone for what appears to be a physically grueling role.
The Demands of a New Role
Directed by Apoorva Lakhia and also starring Chitrangada Singh in a pivotal role, the film is produced by Salman Khan himself under his banner, Salman Khan Films. The actor has been vocal about the challenges this role presents.
In an interview with PTI, Salman Khan shared, “It is physically demanding. Every year, every month, every day it gets more and more difficult. I have to give more time now (for training). Earlier, I would do it (train) in one or two weeks; now I’m running, kicking, punching, and all that stuff. This film demands that.”
The blend of his off-screen, relatable nostalgia and the promise of an on-screen, high-octane performance keeps the audience firmly hooked to everything Salman Khan does, proving his status as a true Bollywood phenomenon.
