Everyone is aware of Salman Khan’s high-profile relationship with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Their on-screen and off-screen chemistry garnered immense admiration from fans. However, their relationship eventually fell apart, and Aishwarya married Abhishek Bachchan. But did you know that even before Aishwarya, Salman Khan had set his sights on another Bollywood diva?
The Bollywood actress we’re talking about has never been paired with Salman Khan in any film, yet she holds a significant position in Indian cinema with numerous hits and some flops under her belt. The superstar in question is none other than Juhi Chawla.
A Twitter user recently shared a short clip from an older interview of Salman, captioning it, “This Salman Khan (red heart emojis).” In the video, dressed in a printed blue polo shirt, jeans, and a hat, Salman candidly revealed his feelings for Juhi Chawla. He stated, “Juhi is very sweet. Adorable girl. I even asked her father if he would let her get married to me.” The interviewer, seemingly surprised, asked, “You asked him? What did he say?” Salman then frowned and responded, “No.” When probed further, Salman added, “I don’t fit the bill, I guess. I don’t know what he wanted.”
Juhi Chawla and Salman Khan have shared the screen in only one film, “Deewana Mastana,” where Salman made a cameo appearance. Directed by David Dhawan, the film starred major actors like Govinda and Anil Kapoor. The revelation of Salman’s proposal and the subsequent rejection left many fans heartbroken. They expressed their disappointment upon watching the video, considering it a ‘heartbreaking moment.’
Juhi Chawla eventually married businessman Jay Mehta, and the couple has two children, a daughter named Jhanvi and a son named Arjun. On the other hand, Salman Khan, at the age of 58, remains a bachelor.
. His love life has been marked by multiple high-profile relationships but has not culminated in marriage. Notably, on the popular talk show “Koffee With Karan,” Salman disclosed that he was on the verge of marrying actress Sangeeta Bijlani. The wedding cards were reportedly even printed. However, the relationship ended after Sangeeta caught Salman cheating, leading her to call off the wedding.
Presently, Salman Khan remains one of the most eligible bachelors in Bollywood and continues to be a subject of immense public fascination and media speculation. Despite his bachelor status, his career continues to flourish. His upcoming movie “Sikandar” is already generating significant buzz. Directed by AR Murugadoss, this action thriller will also star heavyweights like Sathyaraj, Suniel Shetty, and Rashmika Mandanna. The film is scheduled for release on Eid 2025, adding to the anticipation among his fans and the Bollywood community.
As Salman Khan continues to engage in various film projects, his fans remain hopeful that he will find his perfect match. His candidness in interviews and openness about his past relationships only add to his appeal as an actor who is both accessible and genuinely human.
Salman Khan’s dalliance with love and relationships, coupled with his ever-expanding filmography, ensures that he remains a central figure in Bollywood. Whether on-screen or off, his life stories continue to captivate both his admirers and detractors.
Meanwhile, Juhi Chawla continues to enjoy a serene family life, balancing her responsibilities as a wife and mother while making occasional appearances in films and social events. Her enduring appeal and talent ensure that she remains cherished in the industry.
The saga of Salman Khan and Juhi Chawla, albeit brief and unfulfilled, reflects the unpredictable nature of love and the serendipity of life. As both stars continue to forge their paths in Bollywood, their journeys serve as captivating narratives of passion, rejection, and career triumphs.
