Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have a strong friendship that has endured over decades. The two megastars of Bollywood have been close ever since they first began their foray into the film industry. While Shah Rukh Khan is happily married to Gauri Khan with 3 children together, Salman Khan’s marriage continues to be a major source of speculation among Bollywood fans.
But did you know that there was a time when Salman Khan almost got married thanks to Shah Rukh Khan and wife Gauri Khan’s efforts? It is said that SRK and Gauri took a marriage proposal on behalf of Salman to his then girlfriends family who unfortunately declined.
The old video from Salman Khan’s show, ‘Dus Ka Dum’ shows Shah Rukh Khan reminiscing about a past incident when he took his dear friend’s marriage proposal to an actress’s parents. Unfortunately, the endeavor did not yield the desired outcome. Shah Rukh Khan playfully suggests that Salman Khan’s behavior might have been the cause. Rani then intervenes, inquiring if they can disclose the name, to which Salman declines, prompting all three actors to burst into laughter.
Netizens have been quick to speculate which of Salman Khan’s many girlfriends they could be talking about. One comment on Reddit said, “It was Aishwarya Rai, As per media that time, SRK and Gauri went to Aishwarya’s house with Salman’s marriage proposal which was rejected by her parents.” The comment was substantiated by a media report by a renowned publication that also confirmed that the actress in question was indeed Aishwarya Rai.
Some others have also alluded to the fact that it could be Juhi Chawla. Interestingly, Salman Khan has earlier spoken out in an interview candidly about how he wanted to marry Juhi Chawla but her father refused. However, taking into consideration the timeline of the event and other reports the actress in question was none other than Aishwarya Rai.
