Veteran Bollywood filmmaker Subhash Ghai has revealed details of a bitter incident involving Salman Khan, saying their disagreement once escalated into a physical altercation.
The 81-year-old filmmaker shared the incident during a recent interview with Indian media. According to Ghai, Salman Khan’s brother had advised him to cast the actor in one of his films. Ghai agreed to work with Salman and later developed the story for the film Yuvvraaj.
However, before production began, the two reportedly had a heated argument at a party.
Ghai claimed that Salman Khan, who was allegedly under the influence of alcohol at the time made an inappropriate remark to him. The filmmaker said he objected to Salman’s behavior after which the actor questioned some of his decisions as a director.
Ghai told Salman that making decisions to the film was his responsibility as the director. The argument reportedly became increasingly heated and eventually turned physical.
Following the incident, Salman Khan’s father and veteran screenwriter Salim Khan intervened. Ghai said Salim Khan reprimanded his son and instructed him to apologize to the filmmaker.
The filmmaker recalled that Salim Khan called him the following morning to express regret over the incident and informed him that he had spoken to Salman firmly.
Later, Salman Khan personally visited Ghai’s home and apologized to him respectfully. Ghai said Salman’s willingness to listen to his father and show respect helped restore his positive feelings toward the actor.
Ghai said he eventually forgave Salman, and their relationship gradually returned to normal. The two continued meeting and ultimately worked together on Yuvvraaj despite the earlier dispute.
Released in November 2008, Yuvvraaj featured Salman Khan alongside Anil Kapoor and Katrina Kaif. Despite its high-profile cast, the film failed to make a significant impact at the box office.
