Salman Khan once joked about father Salim Khan marrying twice: 'I think marriage is a funny thing'

Salman Khan, nearing 60, is still unmarried. He has been linked to Iulia Vantur. Salman has shared his views on marriage. He finds marriage a funny thing. His father, Salim Khan, has two happy marriages. Salman's career faces a rough patch. His recent films, including Sikandar with Rashmika Mandanna, have not performed well. Sikandar was directed by AR Murugadoss. As he nears 60, Salman Khan remains Bollywood's most iconic bachelor—unmarried, unbothered, and still delivering his trademark wit on the subject. While fans continue to speculate about his love life, the superstar often uses humour to address the ever-persistent question of marriage. From calling it a 'funny thing' to joking about his father Salim Khan 's two marriages, Salman's take on matrimony is as unconventional as his off-screen persona. During a chat with Lehren, Salman once described marriage as 'a funny thing,' noting how its everyday dynamics make for great cinematic comedy. Citing films like Biwi No. 1 and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, he pointed out how even common spousal squabbles—like tiffs over in-laws or dinner plans—offer rich material for humor. During a chat with Lehren, he even joked that soap operas thrive on these themes, with Ekta Kapoor building an empire around saas-bahu dramas. The superstar has often questioned the idea that marriage is always a path to happiness. While many claim it's the best thing in life, he noted that in reality, several married couples don't seem as content as they appear. Taking a light-hearted dig, he brought up his father, veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, as a rare exception—someone who, despite having two wives, seems genuinely happy. Salman joked that Salim might be the only person he knows thriving in such a setup, adding that both Salma Khan and Helen not only get along but also share a good rapport. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Salman Khan is currently facing a challenging phase in his career, with back-to-back setbacks at the box office.

Thug Life on OTT: Will Kamal Haasan and Simbu starrer break its 8-week streaming deal?

Thug Life starring Kamal Haasan and Simbu in the lead roles hit the big screens on June 5, 2025. Ahead of its release, the movie was said to have an 8-week OTT deal, but things may differ now. According to M9 News, the movie might be hitting the streaming service in 4 weeks, as per usual norms. The decision by the OTT giant Netflix is reported to be due to the Mani Ratnam directorial's failure, both commercially and critically. Ahead of its release, Haasan mentioned that the decision to have an 8-week deal for OTT was a 'pragmatic' one, but now it seems fans won't have to wait that long. However, an official confirmation is yet to be made by the makers and the streaming space. Talking about the movie, Thug Life is a gangster actioner featuring Kamal Haasan and Silambarasan TR in the lead roles. The film features the tale of Rangaraaya Sakthivel, an ageing mafia crime boss who adopts a young boy, Amaran, after a shootout in Delhi. Years later, the man raises his foster son as his own, making him a formidable member of the mafia. With circumstances tying his hands, Sakthivel appoints his adopted son to lead the gang, which eventually leads to an animosity between them. As the story progresses, the film develops into a battle of death with father and son going head-to-head until one perishes. Apart from the lead actors, the movie had a large ensemble cast which consisted of Trisha Krishnan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Abhirami, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nassar, Ali Fazal, and more in key roles. The flick, directed by Mani Ratnam, marked the director's reunion with Haasan after 3 decades. With AR Rahman crafting the musical tracks and scores, the movie was received with negative-to-mixed reviews. Moving ahead, Kamal Haasan is next set to appear in the tentatively titled KH237 with AnbArivu duo serving as the directors. On the other hand, STR is speculated to soon join hands with director Vetrimaaran for an action venture. He also has multiple films in the lineup.
