Salman Khan Reveals Brain Aneurysm, AV Malformation Diagnosis: "Even After This, I'm Still Working"
New Delhi:
Salman Khan recently returned to The Great Indian Kapil Show as the first guest of the new season. Dismissing recent speculation about his health, the actor appeared physically fit, but revealed during the episode that he continues to deal with multiple serious medical conditions.
What's Happening
In a conversation with host Kapil Sharma, Salman responded to a question about marriage by referencing the difficulty of building wealth and the potential financial consequences of divorce.
He expressed concern about starting over at his age if a spouse were to take half his earnings.
" Hum ye jo daily ki haddiyan tudwa rahe hain, pasliyan toot gai, trigeminal neuralgia ke sath kaam kar rahe hain, aneurysm hai brain mein uske bawajood kaam kar rahe hain. AV malformation hai, uske bawajood chal rahe hain (I'm out here breaking my bones every day - ribs are fractured, I'm working despite having trigeminal neuralgia, there's an aneurysm in the brain, yet I'm still working. There's also an AV malformation, and still, I'm carrying on)," he said.
He added, "All of this is going on in my life. Aur jahan unka mood satka, woh aadha humara leke chala gaya. Ye younger age mein hota toh theek tha, phirse kama lete. Ab wapis se... (And the moment their mood soured, they will take away half of what I had. Had this happened when I was younger, it would've been fine - I could've earned it all back. But now, starting over again...)"
Background
Salman first spoke publicly about his health in 2017 during a promotional event in Dubai for his film Tubelight, revealing that he suffers from trigeminal neuralgia, a condition often referred to as the "suicide disease" due to the intense pain it causes.
The disorder affects the trigeminal nerve, leading to severe facial pain that can be triggered by simple daily activities like brushing teeth or chewing.
He also revealed during the recent show that he has a brain aneurysm and an arteriovenous malformation (AVM). A brain aneurysm is a bulge in a weakened blood vessel that can lead to a potentially life-threatening hemorrhagic stroke if it ruptures.
An AVM is a rare and abnormal tangle of blood vessels that disrupts normal blood flow and can result in serious neurological issues if not managed.
On The Great Indian Kapil Show, Salman Khan revealed he is battling multiple serious health issues, including trigeminal neuralgia, a brain aneurysm, and an arteriovenous malformation.

Host Kapil Sharma jokingly asked Salman if he plans to follow in Aamir Khan's footsteps and find a new girlfriend. Without missing a beat, Salman replied, 'No such plans.' Archana Puran Singh, who was also present, chimed in, asking if he wasn't tired of the same question after all these years. Salman's reply had everyone in splits. 'Main humesha kehta hu ki mere shaadi kar lene mein aapka kya faeda hai? Kya aapko maza aa raha hai ki main aapke liye suhagrat mana raha hu? Main kya kar raha hu jisme aapko itni khushi ho rahi hai ki main barbad ho jau?' (I always say—how does it benefit you if I get married? Are you enjoying the fact that I'm spending my wedding night for you? What am I doing that brings you so much joy in seeing me ruined?)' 'Divorce happens over snoring now' Delving into why marriage doesn't appeal to him, Salman pointed out the changing dynamics of relationships. 'Couples today split over minor issues like snoring or sleeping positions,' he said, adding that the level of patience and willingness to compromise has dropped drastically. He also shared his deeper concern: 'Phir divorce toh chalo hogaya, woh aadhe paise bhi toh le jaati hai,' he said bluntly, talking about the financial and emotional toll of modern-day divorces.

Kapil Sharma teases Navjot Singh Sidhu for his high fees, hints the 'The Great Indian Kapil Show' budget has been increased
Agencies How much does Navjot Singh Sidhu earning from TGIKS? Kapil Sharma has made a much-awaited return with a fresh season of The Great Indian Kapil Show, launching on Netflix. The debut episode featured none other than Bollywood icon Salman Khan, whose presence added star power to an already lively setting. As expected, Kapil's signature wit lit up the stage as he playfully engaged with his co-stars and guests, especially taking a humorous swipe at Archana Puran Singh's online content. One of the most talked-about highlights of the episode was the return of Navjot Singh Sidhu, who rejoined the show after a long gap. The show began with Kapil's trademark comic timing, and he didn't waste any time poking fun at Sidhu's return. In his typical playful style, he mentioned how fortunate they were to have a budget that could 'afford' Sidhu, alluding to the increased production values on the platform. 'I want to thank Netflix for giving us that much budget that we could afford Sidhu paaji," he quipped. Kapil warmly welcomed Sidhu back to his iconic chair, hinting at the political undercurrents behind his reappearance by joking that it was a coalition of sorts that made this comeback possible. The camaraderie between the two Amritsari entertainers was on full display as Sidhu responded in his poetic fashion, emphasizing the unbreakable bond they share, subtly taking a dig at Archana Puran Singh, who had taken over his seat during his explained the reason behind the six-month delay in launching the new season, attributing it jokingly to the long process of convincing Sidhu. He later clarified that his own film commitments had also played a role in the postponement. While the spotlight was on Kapil's upcoming films, Archana Puran Singh shared that she, too, had been busy—managing her vlogs. This led Kapil to make another playful jab, claiming that her vlogs were just a clever excuse to let her family dine out for free. In a classic Kapil punchline, he quipped that her food videos were more fraud than vlog, triggering laughs from the audience. He went further, teasing that when restaurants don't recognize her celebrity status, Archana tries to get discounts by name-dropping her husband, actor Parmeet Sethi, known for his role in Dilwale Dulhania Le to a report by , Navjot Singh Sidhu, who was last seen as a regular fixture on The Kapil Sharma Show between 2018 and 2020, had earlier earned a hefty sum of Rs 25 crore for a total of 125 episodes. This translated to an average payout of approximately Rs 20 lakh per episode during that period. However, with his recent return to the show on a digital platform, industry sources suggest that his remuneration has seen a significant upswing. Since the new season on Netflix airs only one episode per week, Sidhu is reportedly commanding a far higher fee than before. Current estimates place his per-episode salary in the range of Rs 30 to Rs 40 lakh, signaling a dramatic increase from his previous earnings. This surge in his compensation reflects both the exclusivity of the OTT format and Sidhu's continued popularity among audiences.
