Salman on living with his parents

Salman still lives with his family in Bandra’s Galaxy Apartments. On not moving to a separate place of his own, he had said in 2020, “I love staying at my flat in Bandra over a big, luxurious bungalow because my parents live in the flat above mine. Ever since I was a child I have taken the same left turn or right turn and I would not have it any other way.”

Arbaaz on comparisons with Salman

In an interview with Hindustan Times this year, Arbaaz had talked about being called less successful as compared to his father Salim Khan or brother Salman Khan. He had said, “Today, you can ask anyone who is more successful between Salman and Arbaaz, 100 out of 100 will say it’s Salman. Toh mujhe kya sharam bolne mein (why would I have a problem in saying the same thing)? There are things in my life which don’t exist in his! Tomorrow the situation could be different, maybe I am so successful that it probably supersedes his. You have to be honest where you stand and not be deluded. People respect if you confront it. They aren’t fools. This is what people like.”
