As the country celebrates Ganesh Utsav with great enthusiasm, Bollywood’s Bhai, Salman Khan, was spotted participating in the Ganpati Visarjan at his sister Arpita Khan Sharma’s home. On September 8, Arpita, along with her husband Aayush Sharma, bid farewell to Lord Ganesha with a grand celebration, as they do every year.
This year’s Visarjan at the Khan household was no different, filled with devotion, music, and dancing. Salman Khan, despite suffering from a rib injury, didn’t miss the opportunity to be a part of this special occasion. The actor was seen actively participating in the festivities, from performing aarti to dancing with his family.
Khan Family’s Festive Spirit
The event was attended by the entire Khan family, including Salman’s brothers Sohail and Arbaaz Khan, their children Arhaan, Nirvan, and Alizeh, as well as Helen, Yulia Vantur, and Salma Khan. The celebration was a private affair, but videos and pictures from the event quickly made their way to social media, where they garnered a lot of attention.
In a video shared by Salman Khan on Instagram, the actor is seen dancing along with his family, despite his rib injury. Fans noticed that Salman, though in visible discomfort, didn’t let the pain hold him back. With his hands resting on his ribs, he swayed gently to the beats of the dhol, showing his dedication to the festival and his family.
The video also shows the Khan family performing aarti together. Salma Khan, Helen, and Alvira were seen offering prayers, while Arpita and Aayush conducted the Visarjan rituals. Interestingly, instead of immersing their Ganpati idol in the sea, the family opted for a more environmentally friendly option by using a tank built outside their house.
Salman’s Whisper to Bappa
A particular moment in the video caught the attention of fans, where Salman Khan is seen whispering something into Bappa’s ear before the idol was immersed. While the exact words remain a secret, it’s clear that the actor made a special wish or prayer, a common practice among devotees before bidding farewell to Lord Ganesha.
Upcoming Projects for Salman Khan
On the work front, Salman Khan is currently busy with his upcoming movie ‘Sikandar’. The film, directed by AR Murugadoss and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, is set to release on Eid in 2025. This film will feature Rashmika Mandanna alongside Salman, marking their first on-screen collaboration.
The buzz around ‘Sikandar’ is already high, with fans eagerly awaiting more updates. Salman’s dedication to his work, despite his injury, is evident as he continues to shoot for the film while managing his other commitments.
