\"'Salman Some on screen pairs in Bollywood will always be iconic onscreen. One such pairing is that of Salman Khan<\/a> and Aishwarya Rai<\/a>. The duo shared screen space in ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’ and were also rumoured to be dating at that point. Unfortunately, lots happened after that, for example Vivek Oberoi<\/a>‘s press conference and his feud with Salman Khan. In a recent interview, Salman’s old friend, producer Shailendra Singh has revealed how Salman was fuming after it. He also spoke about Salman and Aishwarya’s love story and his meeting with Salman a that point. Looking back at their early days, Shailendra said he knew Salman during his time in Cuffe Parade, when life was far removed from the glare of stardom. Shailendra said in an interview with Siddharth Kannan, \u201cSalman and I go back to Cuffe Parade, where I used to live. He used to come there to meet his first girlfriend, Shaaheen Jaffery,” he said. Sharing his perspective on Salman\u2019s temperament, he added, \u201cSalman\u2019s problem is that he is all heart. He\u2019s an awesome guy, but the company he keeps is strange.” <\/p>\n

The discussion then shifted to one of the most debated episodes in Bollywood history, the aftermath of Vivek Oberoi\u2019s 2003 press conference, where the actor alleged he had been threatened by Salman. Shailendra revealed that he met Salman shortly after the incident and found him visibly enraged. \u201cHe was fuming. Earlier, he would openly show his emotions. Now, he has a lot more control,” he recalled.Shailendra also spoke about the counsel he offered Salman during that turbulent phase. \u201cMy only reaction after Vivek\u2019s press conference was to tell Salman that in life, we should act, not react. Whatever needs to be done can be done later. For now, let\u2019s sit, have a drink, and let him do whatever he\u2019s doing.”Elaborating further, Shailendra explained that he strongly advised Salman against responding publicly or impulsively. \u201cI asked him to not act on impulse, wait and fight the battle silently.I think he did that. He made sure that Vivek doesn\u2019t work in Bollywood anymore. I don\u2019t know for sure, but that\u2019s how it looks.”The press conference took place at a time when Vivek was reportedly in a relationship with Aishwarya Rai following her breakup with Salman, and it sent shockwaves through the industry. In the years that followed, Vivek Oberoi\u2019s career gradually slipped out of the mainstream.Reflecting on Salman\u2019s relationship with Aishwarya, Shailendra described the actor as someone who often found himself in difficult situations unintentionally. \u201cSalman is a great guy, but always at the wrong place at the wrong time. He has a strange way of finding disaster,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Some on screen pairs in Bollywood will always be iconic onscreen.
