Salman Khan Reveals His Minimal Diet And Salim Khan's Fitness Routine At 89: ‘Metabolism Alag Hai'
Last Updated: Salman Khan shares his minimalist diet and praises his father Salim Khan's fitness at 89. 'He still walks to Bandstand every morning. His metabolism is different,' says the actor. Salman Khan brought laughter, nostalgia, and heartfelt moments to the premiere episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix, and his appearance has since become one of the most viewed and talked-about highlights of the new season. Joined by Kapil Sharma, Archana Puran Singh, Navjot Singh Sidhu (returning to the show after five years), and comedians like Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, and Kiku Sharda, Salman's segment was packed with candid confessions and vintage Salman charm. One particularly touching moment came when Salman opened up about his father, the legendary screenwriter Salim Khan, and his inspiring health routine at the age of 89. In a clip shared by Sidhu on his YouTube channel, Salman said, 'My dad, touchwood, Mashallah, he tells me that 'meri khuraq khatam ho gayi hai' (my appetite has gone down) but touchwood, he is like, 2-3 paranthe, then rice, the gosht, then dessert, twice a day. Unka ek metabolism alag hai. Unka discipline alag hai." Salman continued, adding how Salim Khan remains dedicated to his fitness, 'So he has been walking all the way to Bandstand and back every single morning. We're so happy to see that. We are so proud that we have a father who's fighting it out." The actor then delved into his own eating habits, revealing that discipline is key to his lifestyle too, 'I'll eat anything but won't overeat. Like say, 1 spoon rice or at max one and a half, whatever vegetables, then chicken or mutton or fish." Salman also took a moment to reflect on his influence in introducing gym culture to Bollywood, 'I think I was one of the first actors who really brought in the gym culture to the industry. I remember people thought it was unnecessary at first. Now you see actors and even our legends, like Dharam ji (Dharmendra), who still works out and looks incredible." Despite the lukewarm response to his last release Sikandar, Salman shows no signs of slowing down. He is reportedly set to begin filming a war drama based on the 2020 Galwan Valley conflict, directed by Apoorva Lakhia. He's also said to be in talks with Kabir Khan for the much-awaited sequel, Bajrangi Bhaijaan 2. With his signature blend of humour, humility, and heart, Salman Khan once again proved why he remains one of India's most beloved stars—on screen and off. First Published:
