EXCLUSIVE: How Suniel Shetty’s Simple Act of Kindness Stayed With Salman Khan Forever!
Before the big biceps, blockbuster movies, and that signature bracelet, Salman Khan was just another young guy trying to make it. And during those early days, there was a sweet gesture that stayed with him.
EXCLUSIVE: How Suniel Shetty’s Simple Act of Kindness Stayed With Salman Khan Forever!
In a recent chat with Instant Bollywood, Suniel Shetty recalled a memory that Salman has often brought up over the years. Salman once walked into Suniel’s store, liked a few clothes, but couldn’t quite afford them. Shetty, without a second thought, gave them to him. No fanfare. Just a quiet gesture of kindness.
But here’s the twist; Suniel doesn’t think he did anything remarkable. “Because Salman said it, it sounds like a big deal. But actually, it was just a sweet little gesture,” he said casually, almost amused by the attention.
What makes this story shine isn’t just the act itself. It’s the fact that Salman, unlike most people who tend to forget favors once they’ve made it, made it a point to talk about it. Not once or twice, but again and again over the years.
“He has helped thousands of people himself. So it is his greatness, not mine, that he talks about it,” Suniel pointed out.

That ability to remember the little things, to give credit, to express gratitude, is exactly what Suniel admires. “So many people contribute to our lives, and Salman is someone who actually mentions it. That says a lot about him.”
Then came a line that hits like pure gold – “The difference between a human being and Salman Khan is that he is Being Human. He teaches you what being human is all about. So, the brand he created, it fits him perfectly.”
It’s the kind of story that doesn’t need too much dressing up. A small act of generosity. A superstar who never forgot. And the mutual respect between two actors who’ve clearly seen each other at their realest.
