Sooraj Pancholi reveals Salman Khan never used to lock his home: ‘You can just walk in and eat'
Sooraj Pancholi
, who made his Bollywood debut in 2015 with the film 'Hero', has once again expressed deep gratitude towards
Salman Khan
. The film was produced by
Salman
himself, at a time when Sooraj was caught in the middle of serious controversy surrounding the Jiah Khan suicide case.
While many in the industry kept their distance, Bollywood's Bhaijaan stood firmly by his side, a gesture Sooraj says he'll never forget.
In a chat with Instant Bollywood, Sooraj opened up about how Salman's constant support and kindness had a lasting impact on him. He shared warm memories that gave fans a glimpse into the superstar's true nature, off-screen.
'His house was always open'
One of the most surprising things Sooraj revealed was about the '
Bajrangi Bhaijaan
' actor's home.
It wasn't just a place for family and close friends, it was open to everyone. 'His house was always open earlier. There was a lock on the door, but it was never used. If you want to eat his food or open his fridge and take something, no one would stop you. Even if you want to have his protein shake or vitamins, nobody ever says no,' he said.
According to Sooraj, Salman's home was a place where guests were never treated like strangers.

'There were many times when he'd wake up in the morning, see someone there, and simply say, 'Oh, you're here, you had food,' and then quietly go about his own routine without disturbing anyone. His house is actually quite small,' Sooraj added.
Food for everyone—On and off set
The 'Ek Tha Tiger' actor's generosity wasn't limited to just his home. Sooraj shared that this spirit of sharing carried on to the film sets as well.
'Many people have said this and it's true that when his lunch or dinner is arranged, it's not just for him but for the entire unit. It all comes from his home, and very few people know that his food is meant for everyone. You can just walk in, pick up a plate, and eat, no one is ever denied,' he said.
Free use of the gym too!
It's not just food that Salman shares. His gym equipment is also available for anyone interested in staying fit. 'The same goes for the gym he sets up on set or anywhere else.
Anyone is welcome to use it and work out,' Sooraj said.
While Salman is known for being welcoming, recent events have shown that not everyone respects that space. Just a few days ago, two people—a man and a woman, tried to trespass into his Galaxy Apartments home without permission. This has led to tighter security around the star.
Salman Khan Cheers For Sooraj Pancholi's 'Kesari Veer' Release

Kundali Bhagya's Ashish Trivedi on marrying Rani Patel: Our courtship pictures were better than any pre-wedding photoshoot
Ashish Trivedi and Rani Patel In a time when elaborate pre-wedding shoots have become a norm, Kundali Bhagya actor Ashish Trivedi chose simplicity and intimacy. He tied the knot with Rani Patel, his girlfriend of eight years, on May 5 in a private destination wedding in Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh, attended by close friends and family. He says, 'The pictures we took over the years held more meaning than a pre-wedding shoot. We ended up using those cherished memories instead.' Speaking about the ceremony, he adds, 'The wedding was attended by not more than 100 people. We wanted it to be personal and heartfelt.' Ashish and Rani at their haldi ceremony Ashish was closely involved in planning every detail. He says, 'I wanted everything customised, which took time. We began preparing in February. Fortunately, my last show Kundali Bhagya ended in December, which gave me ample time to focus on the wedding. Now that our honeymoon is winding down, I'm gearing up to look for good work again.' The couple is currently enjoying a 14-day honeymoon, which started in Singapore and is concluding in Bali. Ashish met Rani, who acted in Gulaab Gang, at a gym in 2017. Reflecting on their journey, he shares, 'We took our time because we wanted to experience life's highs and lows together before committing. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like サントリーロコモアが5,940→1,080円で試せる ロコモア こちらをクリック Undo It's important to understand how you handle situations as a team.' On finding love in an industry known for fleeting relationships, Ashish says, 'I was never into flings and always made it clear that I was serious about Rani. I'm lucky to have found her. We're poles apart in personality, but maybe that's what works for us. Her confidence, the way she treats me, and how she handles every situation — good or bad — made me fall in love with her all over again.'

Yuvika Chaudhary REACTS to Prince Narula's link up rumours with Nora Fatehi during Bigg Boss 9: 'When you're young, working, and single...'
Yuvika Chaudhary addressed rumors linking Prince Narula to Nora Fatehi during Bigg Boss 9, emphasizing the difference between on-screen perceptions and real-life understanding. She values Prince's emotional honesty and acknowledges his past experiences, believing it fosters a stronger, more relaxed relationship. Yuvika appreciates that Prince has lived fully, ensuring no future regrets, and cherishes their friendship-turned-marriage built on open communication. Yuvika Chaudhary opened up about the swirling rumours linking her husband, Prince Narula, to actress Nora Fatehi during their Bigg Boss 9 days. In a candid conversation, she reflected on how perceptions can often be misleading and shares her honest take on love, trust, and understanding beyond the camera's lens. When asked about handling the rumours before marrying the Roadies actor, Yuvika told Bollywood Bubble that people often only see what someone chooses to show on screen. However, meeting the person in real life reveals a much deeper and better side. She acknowledged that nobody is perfect, and true understanding comes from personal experiences, which can never be fully captured on screen. She compared it to friendship—only by spending time with someone do you truly get to know them. She mentioned that in today's world, people often judge others without really knowing them. However, she chose not to judge Prince and instead saw him as a hardworking person who is open with his emotions—whether it's anger or love, he expresses it fully. While this can lead to challenges, she accepted it as part of his true personality and felt she understood the kind of person he really is. Yuvika further shared that initially, she felt the need to appear a certain way on screen, dealing with rumors and link-ups. But over time, she realized that when you're young, working, and single, it's your own life to live. It's only when you're with someone that you truly see their loyalty and real character. She wanted a partner who had experienced life fully, so there would be no regrets later. She believes that when people feel restricted, they crave freedom even more. So, she wants her partner to have the freedom to explore and grow, feeling relaxed in personal life. She knows he has traveled a lot and lived fully, and she's aware of his journey. She also joked that they started out as friends, sharing open conversations where she even teased him about his girlfriends. That connection grew naturally, and neither of them expected it would lead to marriage. Check out our list of the latest Hindi , English , Tamil , Telugu , Malayalam , and Kannada movies .
