Salman Khan’s latest excuse why he hasn’t tied the knot
MUMBAI: Guess why Salman continues to stay single? You won’t believe it!
The eternal bachelor of Bollywood has been dealing with queries about his marriage for a long time now. So, now the 52-year-old actor came up with yet another amusing excuse to explain why he doesn’t plan to tie the knot. According to local news report, at an event Salman Khan said weddings are expensive and he can’t afford one!
Yes, your read that right. Salman said, “My father got married in Rs. 180,” adding, “Because of his films like ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun’ and ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’ weddings have become such a big thing that people started spending lakhs and lakhs and crores and crores in getting somebody married. I can’t afford it. That’s the reason I’m single.”
Interesting! Specially coming from the superstar who topped Forbes India 100 celebrity list for the second year in a row. Despite his Eid 2017 release ‘Tubelight’ falling flat at the box-office, the actor earned Rs 232.83 crore, all thanks to his brand endorsements, TV shows and of course blockbuster 300 crore hit, ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’.
And then back in 2014, the superstar also organised a royal wedding for his sister Arpita Khan to Aayush Sharma.
The two got hitched in Hyderabad’s Falaknuma Palace and later held a grand reception in Mumbai as well.
Meanwhile, Salman will return to the small screen with ‘Dus Ka Dum’ this year. He is currently shooting for ‘Race 3’ with Jacqueline Fernandez, Daisy Shah, Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol. After that he also has ‘Bharat’ with director Ali Abbas Zafar and ‘Dabangg 3’ with Prabhudeva.
