The episode has already become a hit among viewers, who are loving the fun and candid side of Salman as he jokes and banters with host Kapil Sharma, Archana Puran Singh, Navjot Singh Sidhu (who returned to the show after five years), and comedians like Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, and Kiku Sharda. Recently, Sidhu shared a clip from the show on his YouTube channel, where Salman can be seen talking about his father, Salim Khan's health, fitness, and disciplined lifestyle. He 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.' (He has a different metabolism. He has a different kind of discipline.) Salim is 89-year-old. '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.' Salman also went on to share his own diet routine, adding: '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.'

Diljit Dosanjh Should 'Make Amends', Says Aditya Narayan: 'There's A Limit To Tolerance'
Last Updated: Aditya Narayan believes that as an Indian, one should put their nation above everything. He said that it's time that Indians took a stand for their country. Singer Aditya Narayan has weighed in on the controversy surrounding Diljit Dosanjh and his upcoming movie, Sardaar Ji 3. Diljit Dosanjh is embroiled in a tough row due to the casting of Pakistani actor Hania Aamir in his film, amid stringent tensions between India and Pakistan after the Pahalgam terror attack. Reflecting on the situation in an exclusive conversation with News18 Showsha, Aditya Narayan says that while India is a tolerant country, there is a limit to this tolerance. Aditya champions the idea of putting one's nation first. Aditya Narayan exclusively tells us, 'I don't know what I can say or not, but I'm a staunch patriot. For me, it's always nation first. The country in question (Pakistan)… It's sort of a habit (of supporting terrorism). As Indians, we spread the message of love and inclusivity. We believe in Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam. But for how long can we tolerate this? It's unfair and wrong. Jo galat hai voh galat hai. The timing is not right. The atrocities are still fresh in the minds of every Indian." The singer mentions, 'As a nation, we have always tried to bring the two countries together- be it sports, music or film. Par saamne wali ki bhi toh kuch responsibility hoti hai na? Taali do haath se bajti hai. It's time we take a stand for the nation. Enough is enough. Thoda sa hum saamne wale ki taraf se pyaar aate dekhe toh shayad hum sochenge. It's time we received some love." Aditya believes it's 'difficult" to say whether Diljit Dosanjh is right or wrong in his decision. He explains, ' Jab iski casting hui hogi toh relations itne strained nahi the. But if you see, the relations were never good anyway. It's murky waters, but definitely, it's always India first. This is my motherland. This is my country." Reflecting on what he would have done had he been in Diljit's shoes, Aditya says, 'I would put my country first. I don't expect anybody to do anything. I don't have anything to say about their actions. But if it were me, I would put my nation first, and so would every Indian. We love India. India main rehne wale log India se pyaar karte hain. India main nahi rehne wale log India se pyaar karte hain. Hum itna pyaara desh hain, humare saath aise kyu kiya jaata hai?" 'Make amends, that's all. It's a very sensitive topic, and everything gets trolled on the internet, but this is what I believe. We have always been hospitable and collaborative. We still are. Love will always be our message, but there is a limit to tolerance," Aditya Narayan concludes. Meanwhile, Diljit Dosanjh's Sardaar Ji 3 will not be released in India. Its global release is scheduled on June 27. Diljit Dosanjh has been receiving boycott and ban calls from the Indian film bodies, and his future films like Border 2 are in jeopardy. As for Aditya Narayan, the singer has launched his much-awaited album, Saansein, with the release of his latest track, Bana Le Tera. Bana Le Tera is a soul-stirring Hindi romantic ballad that beautifully captures the timeless longing to belong entirely—heart, soul, and destiny—to the one you love. The singer will release one track from the album every month. First Published:
