Woman arrested for attempting to trespass at Salman Khan's Mumbai home
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 22 (ANI): A woman was taken into custody by Mumbai Police on Thursday morning after she allegedly attempted to illegally enter the residence of Bollywood actor Salman Khan at Galaxy Apartments in Bandra. According to police officials, the woman tried to breach the security of the high-profile building but was intercepted before she could reach the actor's residence. She is currently being interrogated, and authorities are verifying her identity and place of origin. It is not yet confirmed whether she is a local resident or has travelled from another city. The incident follows closely on the heels of a similar security breach earlier this week. On May 20, a man was apprehended after he was found attempting to enter Galaxy Apartments stealthily. Security personnel on duty caught him in time and handed him over to the police. According to police officials, a preliminary investigation revealed that the man hailed from Chhattisgarh. On the professional front, Salman Khan was last seen in action drama 'Sikandar', where he starred alongside Rashmika Mandanna. While speaking to ANI, Salman recalled how the project came to him and also shared that it was Murugadoss who first narrated the script to producer Sajid Nadiadwala, who reached out to him with the script. 'Actually, ye Murugadoss ki script thi aur Murugadoss ne Sajid Nadiadwala ko sunayi. Agle hi din Sajid ka mujhe phone aaya ki sun lena aur shayad tumhe pasand aaye,' he added. 'Toh maine suna... maine bola, 'Isme pasand na aane wali kya cheez hai? Kab start karoge?' Toh is prakar se ye film bani hai,' Salman said. The actor also shared how his father, veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, surprised everyone at home by deciding to attend the trailer launch event. 'The love and respect he has earned are still intact. When I was leaving home to attend the trailer launch, he told me he would join me too. Every member of our family looked at Dad and asked, 'What has happened to you?' When he came there, he climbed more than 8-10 steps to sit behind. He wanted to see the reaction of the press,' Khan said. (ANI)

AR Murugadoss on why he chose Salman Khan for 'Sikandar'
A.R. Murugadoss expressed his love and admiration for Salman Khan by speaking of an incident that took place in Chennai years ago. Murugadoss, who is known for films Ghajini and Holiday, has collaborated with Khan for the first time for the upcoming film titled Sikandar, out on March 30, 2025. At the trailer launch event, the Ghajini director shared his fan moment. He said, "I was struggling as an AD (Assistant Director) long back. So I wanted to watch a shoot, so I went to Prasad Studios in Chennai. I requested the security guard to let me in and watch me shoot. He allowed me on two conditions. You have to be in corner and you cannot talk to anyone. He gave me 20 minutes. After that, I had to leave." He further explained how he became a fan of Khan after one unexpected encounter with the actor and decided to cast him in a film. "So I entered. I don't know what the shoot was. Full dark smoke, light comes, Sridevi is there. I was surprised. Then suddenly, I see a hero's backside. He is combing his hair. So I tried to see who the hero was. He was none other than Salman Sir. So, I tried to go one step forward, and I saw the guard looking at me. He said no. So I went outside and thought that one day I will direct his film. So after so many years, I have directed the film with him." At the trailer launch, Khan spoke about how Murugadoss constantly pushed him, especially in action sequences, to bring out his best. Murugadoss has worked with huge stars such as Rajinikanth (Darbar), Vijay (Kaththi), Mahesh Babu (Spyder), Chiranjeevi (Stalin), Suriya (Ghajini) and Ajith (Dheena) as well. His next directorial, Sikandar, is an action-packed film which stars Khan and Rashmika Mandanna in lead roles.
