Forgetting and forgiving someone is something that doesn’t come easily to Sallu.With his list of enemies increasing by the day – Shah Rukh Khan, John Abraham, Vivek Oberoi, Shahid Kapoor...Sallu never leaves an opportunity to make snide remarks at them.
Recently, while flipping pages of a prominent fortnightly he came across a picture of SRK posing with his doctorate degree, and Salman promptly remarked, “Arre iss doctor ke paas patients ko bhejo aur ilaaj karao na,” (Send all the patients to Dr Shah Rukh Khan and get them treated).
Everyone saw it on ‘Dus Ka Dum’ how he got back at Shahid Kapoor who had tried to flaunt his dancing skills (Shiamak Davar style) and teach Sallu (known for his original dancing skills) a step or two during a rock concert about three years back. While matching steps with Karisma and Kareena on his show, and after performing on one of Shahid’s famous numbers, he grinned, “Don’t you think I dance better than Shahid?”
Probably it is with people like Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff that he gels more. They are of his kind, absolutely unpretentious – another quality that he likes in people. And hence there was a lot of firework when these two seniors of his appeared on ‘Dus Ka Dum’ recently.
“The younger generation should learn from these ‘cool’ guys who are not pretentious. They are frank and openly talk about the mistakes they made in the past. They don't fake when they say, ‘this was our life – this is what we used to do - drugs, alcohol, women, today we have left all that and learnt from our mistakes and experiences. “I have a lot of respect for these guys,” said Salman.
