Aishwarya Rai's Shocking Revelations about Salman Khan
When model-actress Jhanvi Kapoor claimed she is married to Abhishek Bachchan and accused Aishwarya Rai Bachchan of stealing her alleged husband
In a 2002 interview, Aishwarya opened up about the emotional and physical toll the relationship had taken on her. She stated that she endured Salman's violent and abusive behaviour: 'I stood by him, enduring his alcoholic misbehaviour in its worst phases, and in turn, I was at the receiving end of his abuse — verbal, physical and emotional — infidelity, and indignity.
I would go to work as if nothing had happened. Salman hounded me and caused physical injuries to himself when I refused to take his calls.
That is why, like any other self-respecting woman, I ended my relationship with him.'
However, Salman offered an entirely different version of events. Speaking to NDTV in an older interview, he firmly denied the allegations and even pointed to what he described as the physical improbability of the accusations:

A journalist, who asked me this a long time ago, and I just banged the table and he got startled — as if the table really broke. I said, 'Now if I hit somebody, it's obviously going to be a fight. I'm going to be angry. Forget whack, I'm going to give her my best shot. I don't think she'll survive it. So no, it's not true, and I don't know for what reason that was said.''
Salman expressed goodwill towards Aishwarya's marriage to Abhishek
The 'Sikandar' actor later addressed Aishwarya's marriage to Abhishek Bachchan during a 2010 interview with India TV. He stated that he was happy about her marriage, calling Abhishek 'a great guy from a good family' and wished her a happy life ahead.
On the work front, Salman Khan is currently preparing for his upcoming film Battle of Galwan.

On 23 July, fans of Tamil cinema were in for a fiery surprise as the teaser of Karuppu, starring Suriya , dropped on his birthday. Directed by RJ Balaji, the teaser has left fans buzzing, not just because of Suriya's intense dual avatars, but also because it pays tribute to a famous moment from his 2005 hit film Ghajini. A Tale of Two Suriya Avatars The teaser begins with a mysterious voiceover, saying the deity being referred to is not one to be calmed but one to be worshipped with red chillies, a nod to the film's fiery tone.

Wuthering Waves Phrolova release date, banner details and more
Image via: Kuro Games Everyone is excited over the very mysterious new character who is entering Wuthering Waves, Phrolova, right before the Version 2.5 update go live. Pending release on July 24, 2025, this 5-star Havoc Resonator will bring a combat style dripping with eerie graceful beauty, fresh narrative presence, and a kit designed for crowd control and explosive DPS. Here is a little break-up of what to expect from the advent of this Fractsidus maiden. Phrolova's Debut: The Havoc Force Phrolova will open the Phase 1 banner of Version 2.5 and her debut will be accompanied by her signature Rectifier weapon, the Lethean Elegy. She is the only new 5-star unit that would land on this patch, thereby reinforcing her spotlight. With narrative relevance and meta potential on her side, Phrolova will be the resonator definitely worth pulling for powerful Havoc DPS with versatile good range capabilities. Phase 1 Banner Lineup: Who's Joining the Stage? Though Phrolova takes center-stage, the Phase 1 Banner will feature reruns of familiar faces, making it a draw for the veterans and newcomers alike. Here's the lineup in full: Phrolova (5★, Havoc, Rectifier) Roccia (5★, Havoc, Gauntlet) Taoqi (4★, Havoc, Broadblade) Lumi (4★, Electro, Broadblade) Yuanwu (4★, Electro, Gauntlet) Weapons available will include Lethean Elegy for Phrolova and Tragicomedy for Roccia, ensuring players can fully build their optimization. Combat mechanics: Life, Death, and Sound Gameplay with Phrolova centers around musical motifs and transforming states. It somehow gives a rhythm-based style of combat. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Susan Boyle Is Now so Thin and Looks Beautiful! Undo Her Normal Attacks are a set of three Havoc-based strikes; the third-stage transition into the Reincarnate state opens more powerful abilities. Her Heavy Attack can become Scarlet Coda: an explosive AoE skill, contingent on certain conditions, Compose state active and Volatile Notes fully charged. Scarlet Coda staggers enemies and pulls them in on top of that, serving as excellent crowd control. Another core feature is her Resonance Skill, Whispers in a Fleeting Dream, which deals Havoc damage and kicks her straight into Reincarnate mode, allowing for smooth skill chaining and some creative combo windows. Her kit lends her to making suitable choices for both solo and coordinated team engagements. Wuthering Waves | Resonator Showcase | Phrolova — SUNSETS WILL BE NO MORE Strategic Importance and Pull Recommendation Strategically, from a meta standpoint, Phrolova's Havoc typing gives her an edge in battles where elemental resist rotation comes into play. Everywhere else, she should leave a solid imprint due to her general area control and specialized mechanics: therefore, in both normal and late-game content alike. Whether you're a lore enthusiast curious about the implications behind her Fractsidus connection or a min-maxer aiming for the perfect build, Phrolova's first appearance stands as both a story beat and a tactical opportunity. Phrolova's banner will open on July 24, 2025, at 11 AM (UTC+8) to all servers globally, with regional release times staggered accordingly. With her arrival comes the first wave of Version 2.5, with rerun banners expected to follow in Phase 2. If you plan to pull for her, do remember that wrecking synergy with her signature weapon is her best jackpot because in Wuthering Waves, synergy is everything.
