\"Salman Kajol<\/a> and Twinkle Khanna<\/a>\u2019s much-awaited chat show Two Much With Kajol and Twinkle premiered today on Amazon Prime Video with superstar guests Aamir Khan<\/a> and Salman Khan. The actors revisited their friendship, Andaz Apna Apna memories, and personal anecdotes. But the most emotional moment came when Salman recalled his bond with Kajol\u2019s father, filmmaker Shomu Mukherjee, who passed away in 2008 following a heart attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was very close, very close\u201d<\/p>\n

Salman shared that Shomu Mukherjee was like family to him and often visited his home. \u201cKajol’s father and I used to be very close, very close. He would come home almost twice a week. In fact, just before he passed away, two days prior, he had come over. He arrived with the same energy, wearing his lungi, though he was going through a very difficult time and wasn\u2019t feeling well.\u201d<\/p>\n

His last drink<\/p>\n

Salman went on to narrate their final interaction, one that has stayed with him over the years. \u201cHe said, ‘Yaar, ek drink pila…’ I replied, ‘No, Shomu Da, I…’ But he insisted, ‘I am going in a couple of days. Pila de ek mereko.’ I didn\u2019t know what to do. Then he said again, ‘Pila yaar.’ So, I made him a drink. And two days later, he was no more.\u201dKajol was visibly moved as Salman shared the memory, and Twinkle was seen comforting her on the set.<\/p>\n
