Salman Khan recalls his biking experience with father Salim Khan: "We got this bike from Hyderabad..."

Last year, Salman had taken to social media to share a nostalgic moment with a photo featuring a vintage Triumph Tiger 100 (1956) alongside his father.

Salman Khan continues to reign as one of India’s most beloved superstars, admired not only for his larger-than-life on-screen persona but also for his deep-rooted love for family. Despite his packed schedule and action-heavy projects, Salman never misses a chance to celebrate life’s simpler joys with his loved ones.

A recent instance of this was when he fondly recalled restoring his father Salim Khan’s first bike and teaching his nephews how to ride it at their farmhouse—a heartwarming reflection of his sentimental side.

Last year, Salman had taken to social media to share a nostalgic moment with a photo featuring a vintage Triumph Tiger 100 (1956) alongside his father. The caption read: “Dad's 1st bike, Triumph Tiger 100, 1956!” The superstar fondly remembered, “He bought this bike when he was 16 years old for 4800.” Though the bike had long since left their lives, it remained a topic of frequent conversation between Salim Khan and his son Sohail Khan. Eventually, Sohail tracked down the bike in a junkyard in Hyderabad.

“We got this bike from Hyderabad, sourced all the parts that were missing, and restored it for him,” Salman shared, visibly moved by the gesture and the memories it brought back.

At the launch event of Season 2 of the Indian Supercross Racing League (ISRL), where Salman serves as the brand ambassador, he reminisced about learning to ride from his father. These reflections painted a touching picture of the bond between father and son, grounded in shared passions and cherished traditions.

Meanwhile, Salman Khan’s professional life remains as dynamic as ever. With a slate of high-octane commercial films lined up, his upcoming war drama Battle of Galwan has already ignited widespread buzz, especially after its powerful first look.

Moreover, talks of a reunion with director Kabir Khan for Bajrangi Bhaijaan 2 have only added to the growing excitement. If materialized, this collaboration could signal an emotional and narrative shift in Salman’s filmography—blending heart with heroism, and once again showcasing the superstar’s versatility both on and off screen.
