The recent comments made by Zeeshan Siddique, son of late Baba Siddique, about Salman Khan have garnered significant attention. In an interview with BBC Hindi, Zeeshan revealed the profound impact of his father's tragic death on both himself and Salman Khan.
The closeness between Salman and Baba Siddique has been well-documented, with Salman often regarded as a member of the Siddique family due to their deep bond.
Zeeshan noted, “Main humesha se pitaji ke jo dost rahe hain unko celebrities to nahi maanta hoon. Kyuki agar aapke ghar pe koi agar humesha aata hai, aapke pitaji ke parivarik dost hote hain to woh ghar ke sadasya hi jaise hote hain.” This sentiment underscores how close relationships can transcend the boundaries of celebrity status. For Zeeshan, individuals like Salman Khan are not merely famous figures but integral parts of his family. He further emphasized, “To jitta ghar ke sadasya ki ahmiyat hoti hai waise Bhai ki ahmiyat hai aur baaki jo pitaji ke dost hain” — illustrating the emotional weight Salman holds in his life.
Salman Khan's support for Zeeshan has been unwavering since the unfortunate demise of Baba Siddique. Zeeshan shared, “Salman Bhai bhi bohot upset hue is cheez ko le kar. Pitaji aur Salman Bhai to humesha sage bhai jitne hi close the.” This highlights the deep-rooted connection between the two families. After Baba Siddique's passing, Salman has made it a point to reach out to Zeeshan regularly. “Unko raat ko neend nahi aati hai, ye sab baat karte hain,” he added, revealing that Salman has been experiencing sleepless nights, burdened by grief and concern for Zeeshan's well-being.
The death of Baba Siddique, a prominent NCP leader, has raised serious concerns about security in Bollywood, especially for high-profile figures like Salman Khan. Following the assassination of Baba Siddique on October 12, questions about the safety of Salman and his family have become increasingly pressing.
The situation escalated when gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, who has been associated with threats against Salman in the past, took responsibility for the murder. This has understandably led to a heightened level of anxiety for both Salman and his supporters.
Zeeshan's reflections on this troubling time reveal the impact of such violence not only on personal lives but also on friendships and community ties. He expressed gratitude towards Salman, who has continuously checked in on him, offering emotional support during this challenging period.
This connection between the two men serves as a reminder of the importance of friendship in times of crisis, especially within the often tumultuous world of Bollywood.
In light of these developments, speculation about Salman Khan's upcoming projects has also stirred conversations. There are rumors regarding his potential cameo as Chulbul Pandey in Rohit Shetty's "Singham Again." Although there were concerns that Salman might withdraw from the project due to security issues, Akshay Kumar teased about this cameo in a recent social media post, hinting at the continuing collaboration among Bollywood stars.
Furthermore, Salman is also working on "Sikandar," directed by A.R. Murugadoss and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala. These projects showcase Salman’s commitment to his craft despite the surrounding turmoil, suggesting that he is determined to carry on his work while grappling with personal loss and security challenges.
