The eagerly anticipated journey of Bigg Boss 19 has officially started, with Salman Khan returning as the host of the reality series. During the grand premiere on Sunday, viewers were introduced to a new group of contestants, star-studded moments, and an unexpected personal revelation from the Bollywood superstar himself.
Among the new contestants was content creator Tanya Mittal. In her interaction with Salman, the actor also introduced Gangs of Wasseypur writer Zeishan Quadri. While chatting with Tanya, Salman asked if she had seen the cult classic, only for her to admit she hadn’t. Instead, Tanya confessed she had watched Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo, one of Salman’s own films.
The conversation took a personal twist when Tanya asked Salman: “Sir, sacha pyaar humesha adhura rehta hai kya? (Sir, does true love always remain incomplete?).”
Salman’s candid reply took both the contestants and audience by surprise. He said, “Sacha pyaar, I don’t know… kyunki abhi tak hua hi nahi. Na sacha pyaar hua hai, na kuch adhura raha hai (True love? I don’t know… because it hasn’t happened to me yet. There hasn’t been true love, nor anything that remains incomplete).”
The heartfelt admission from the actor, known for keeping his personal life private, became one of the evening’s highlights.
Salman Khan’s love life has long intrigued fans and media. Throughout the years, he has been linked to several notable names.
In the 1990s, Salman was romantically involved with former actor Somy Ali, with their relationship reportedly spanning from 1991 to 1999.
He also had a long-term relationship with Sangeeta Bijlani. The couple dated for almost a decade, reaching the point where wedding cards were printed, although the ceremony was eventually called off. Sangeeta recently confirmed this on an episode of Indian Idol 15.
His relationship with Aishwarya Rai reportedly began on the sets of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam in 1999. However, this high-profile romance ended in 2002.
In more recent years, Salman has been romantically linked to actors like Katrina Kaif and Iulia Vantur, though he has never publicly acknowledged these relationships. At 59, the actor remains unmarried.
