Mumbai: Salman Khan, the epitome of fitness and on-screen charisma, has revealed the source of his early inspiration, and it's a name that resonates with millions. In a recent media interaction, Salman shared his deep admiration for veteran actor Dharmendra, calling him a father figure and a mentor. The 'Sultan' star's words were filled with emotion as he spoke about the impact of Dharmendra's work on his life.
During the 'Da-Bangg Tour' press conference in Qatar, Salman was asked about his fitness journey and the people who influenced him. Without hesitation, he named Dharmendra as his ultimate role model. In a heartwarming video that's gone viral, Salman expressed his love and respect for Dharmendra, saying, 'Dharmendra ji is like a father to me.

Salman Khan was among the first to visit him, showcasing the strong bond between the two. Their friendship goes back years, and Salman has always looked up to Dharmendra for guidance and inspiration.
However, the media's coverage of Dharmendra's health has sparked controversy. In a separate incident, actor Sunny Deol lost his temper with photographers outside his home after his father's hospital discharge.

Filmmaker Karan Johar also weighed in on the issue, sharing a message on his Instagram Story. He expressed his distress over the media circus surrounding the Deol family, emphasizing the lack of respect and sensitivity.
