December 29, 2024: Salman Khan’s birthday celebration in Jamnagar was an extravagant affair, with his close family, friends, and the Ambanis attending to mark his 59th year.
The event was reportedly hosted by the Ambani family, who are long-time friends of Salman. His mother, Salma Khan, brother Sohail Khan, sisters Arpita and Alvira, and several Bollywood celebrities were spotted at the venue. Among the notable guests were actors Riteish Deshmukh and his wife Genelia D’Souza, who are close friends of the Khan family.
The birthday bash was filled with memorable moments. Salman was seen cutting a massive cake alongside his niece, Ayat, and there were heartwarming glimpses of the Ambanis—Mukesh and Nita Ambani—celebrating with Salman, cheering him on. Social media was buzzing with pictures and videos from the event, including a notable one posted by Ananya Panday’s aunt, Deanne Pandey, featuring a large sign that read, “Love ❤️ you Bhaijaan.”
Salman’s birthday was also filled with heartfelt wishes from his industry peers. Ajay Devgn shared a fun picture with Salman on Instagram, referring to their iconic roles in Singham and Dabangg. Salman’s long-time bodyguard, Shera, also expressed his deep respect with a caption reading, “Mere MAALIK ka birthday hai. Love MAALIK.” Shilpa Shetty wished Salman with a sweet message, calling him a “rockstar” and wishing him happiness and success.
On the professional front, Salman is gearing up for the release of his highly anticipated film Sikandar, which will hit theaters on Eid 2025. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss, the film stars Salman alongside Rashmika Mandanna. The announcement of Rashmika’s casting in the film was made earlier this year, and she expressed her excitement to be part of the project. In addition to Sikandar, Salman will also be seen in Kick 2, which is slated for release in the coming months.
This birthday celebration was a perfect mix of personal warmth and professional excitement, as Salman continues to maintain his reign in Bollywood both on and off the screen.
