Salman Khan speaks on his no-kiss policy: Arbaaz jokes, ‘ Woh itna kar lete hain off-screen ki zaroorat hi nahi padti '
Salman Khan has long upheld a 'no-kiss' policy in his films, which is a rarity in Bollywood today. Despite roles that might demand intimacy, Salman has consistently drawn the line when it comes to on-screen kissing.
Even when paired with ex-girlfriend Katrina Kaif in 'Tiger Zinda Hai,' the actor stood firm, reportedly turning down a crucial kissing scene despite director Ali Abbas Zafar's insistence.
In a throwback episode of 'The Kapil Sharma Show,' Salman addressed the topic, saying, 'Kiss toh main karta nahi screen pe, toh mujhe farak padta nahi.' But it was his brother Arbaaz Khan's cheeky response that stole the show, 'Woh itna kar lete hain off-screen ki zaroorat hi nahi padti!'
The audience and Salman broke into laughter.
While some argue Salman broke his own rule in 'Jeet' with Karisma Kapoor, there are fans who point out that it was merely a kiss on the chin, which is not a true violation of his self-imposed code.
'Battle of Galwan': Salman Khan's Fierce Comeback
Salman's upcoming film 'Battle of Galwan,' directed by Apoorva Lakhia, has been generating major buzz after the release of its intense motion poster. The patriotic drama, based on the 2020 India-China clash in Ladakh, reportedly sees Salman portray Colonel B Santosh Babu, the commanding officer who led the 16 Bihar Regiment.
The release date is still under wraps, but the emotional tone and powerful first visuals have already left fans stirred.
About 'Sikandar'
Meanwhile, Salman Khan was last seen in 'Sikandar,' which was directed by AR Murugadoss. The Rashmika Mandanna starrer only received 2 stars from ETimes, with our official review reading, "The story and the narrative are the biggest letdowns of this larger-than-life movie; even if they are trying to draw in die-hard Salman Khan fans, we wish they had taken the action notches higher. A few standout punches and stunts here and there could have probably salvaged this one.

However, investigations revealed that the video was entirely AI-generated, and the events depicted were completely fictional. Despite its virality, fact-checking organizations, news outlets, and marine authorities confirmed that no such incident occurred, and there is no credible evidence of a marine trainer named Jessica Radcliffe. The voices in the video were also artificially synthesized, further confirming the fabrication. Jessica Radcliffe orca attack viral video : The truth behind the online sensation The video portrayed a marine trainer named Jessica Radcliffe performing with an orca at the fictional "Pacific Blue Marine Park." In the footage, the orca allegedly attacks and kills Radcliffe during the performance. However, investigations confirmed that the video is a hoax created using AI-generated images and voices. There is no record of a marine trainer named Jessica Radcliffe, and the incident never occurred as reported by various news sources. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Rates Undo Experts identified several indicators that the video was artificially created: Inconsistent visuals: The orca's movements and the trainer's interactions were unnatural and lacked the fluidity typical of real-life performances. Synthetic audio: The voices in the video exhibited unnatural pauses and intonations characteristic of AI-generated speech. Fictional setting: The "Pacific Blue Marine Park" does not exist, and no credible sources reported such an incident. These elements collectively point to the video being a deliberate fabrication designed to deceive viewers. Inside the dark world of orcas: Fatal trainer attacks and all about world's loneliest whale Kiska While the Jessica Radcliffe incident is fictional, there have been real cases of orca attacks on trainers. One notable example is the death of trainer Dawn Brancheau at SeaWorld Orlando in 2010 as reported by . Brancheau was killed by the orca Tilikum during a performance, which sparked widespread debate about the ethics of keeping orcas in captivity. The viral video also drew attention to Kiska, an orca who spent over 40 years in captivity, primarily at Marineland in Niagara Falls, Canada. Known as the "world's loneliest orca," Kiska lived alone for the final 12 years of her life after the death of her last companion. She passed away in March 2023 from a bacterial infection. Kiska: Canada's last captive orca and the world's loneliest whale Kiska, the last orca in captivity in Canada, lived her entire adult life at Marineland, a marine amusement park in Niagara Falls. Widely known as the world's loneliest whale, Kiska became the focus of global outrage when a 2021 video showed her repeatedly banging her head against the walls of her tank, highlighting the psychological toll of captivity. Public appeals for her release spread widely, though she never returned to the ocean. Kiska early life Kiska was captured from Icelandic waters in 1979 at just three years old. Her free life in the open ocean was abruptly replaced with human-imposed captivity that would last until her death at the age of 46. After her capture, she was transferred to Marineland, where she would spend the next four decades. In the early 2000s, Marineland sought a male partner for Kiska. SeaWorld agreed to send their male orca, Ikaika, who was four years old, in exchange for three beluga whales. Ikaika was introduced to Kiska and another female orca, Nootka, in an effort to provide social interaction and companionship. Kiska's life of isolation and struggle in captivity Kiska's life in captivity was fraught with difficulties. Ikaika developed behavioral and health problems common in captive orcas, becoming aggressive and biting Kiska. By 2009, SeaWorld requested his return to provide better care, leading to a legal dispute with Marineland. SeaWorld ultimately won, and Ikaika was returned to California. Around the same time, Nootka passed away, leaving Kiska entirely alone. She became widely known as 'the loneliest whale in the world.' During her life, Kiska gave birth to five calves, all of whom died at a young age. Observers frequently noted abnormal behaviors in Kiska, such as repetitive swimming in circles, floating lifelessly, or banging her head against the tank walls. These behaviors were indicative of stress, boredom, and lack of stimulation—a stark contrast to life in the wild, where orcas swim tens of miles per day and interact socially with their pods. Kiska's final years and the end of orca captivity in Canada In 2019, Canada passed legislation banning the breeding and captivity of whales, dolphins, and porpoises. However, animals already in captivity, including Kiska, were required to remain in their tanks. This law highlighted the challenges of correcting decades of captivity while underscoring the loneliness and suffering experienced by Kiska, who never returned to the ocean. Kiska passed away in 2023 at the age of 47. Orcas are highly social creatures, and despite widespread appeals for her release, Kiska spent her final days isolated, floating lifelessly, or banging her head against the tank walls. Her life serves as a sobering reminder of the cruelty and ethical dilemmas of keeping intelligent marine mammals in captivity. Kiska deserved to live in the ocean with her family, but instead became an emblem of the consequences of human entertainment on wild animals. Why Kiska was called the world's loneliest whale Kiska was called the world's loneliest whale because she spent her final 12 years completely alone at Marineland, Canada. After the deaths and removal of her tankmates, she had no social interaction—an unnatural condition for orcas, which are highly social animals living in pods in the wild. Her repetitive behaviors, like swimming in circles, floating listlessly, and banging her head against the tank walls, highlighted the stress and isolation caused by captivity.

Today, we are going to tell you about a Bollywood actor who dominated the box office with his very first film. With his debut in Bollywood in 1991, he defeated all the superstars of that era. No one could compete with him at the box office. We are talking about actor Vivek Mushran. Who is Vivek Mushran? Vivek Mushran made his Bollywood debut with the 1991 film 'Soudagar'. He became famous overnight with this film. Along with Vivek, this was also the debut film of actress Manisha Koirala. Although this film was based on Dilip Kumar and Raj Kumar, Vivek-Manisha also appeared in lead roles in it. Vivek played the role of Dilip Kumar's grandson in the film 'Soudagar'. After the release of this film, people started seeing the image of Dev Anand in Vivek, because at that time Vivek looked like Dev Anand. Not only this, after seeing Vivek's acting in the film, there was a discussion in the industry that he could become a new superstar of Bollywood in the future. Why did Vivek disappear from films? But, it is said that in everything, along with your hard work, your luck is also necessary, only then you are able to succeed in your work and this did not happen with Vivek. His luck was not with him and due to this the graph of his film career gradually went down. It was not that he did not get films after the film 'Saudagar'. He worked in many films, but he did not get success from any film. When he did not get success in films, he turned to TV, where he was successful in maintaining his identity, but did not achieve any special heights in his career. Where is Vivek Mushran now? Today, Vivek is 56 years old, but he has not married yet. Once in an exclusive conversation with ETimes, Vivek had said, 'I had not thought about marriage. It could have happened, but things did not happen as I had expected, but I have no regrets.' He further said, 'I have been a happy person for a long time, but right now I would love to find a partner. My friends, who are married, think that I am the luckiest and happiest person on earth. Even if I am not married, I definitely feel the need for a partner.' Extending his talk, he had said, 'The last time I was in a relationship was two years ago and since then I have been mostly single. I would love to get married, but for my happiness, not because of social norms. It is never too late, but for me, it is now or never.'
