Salman Khan had fans doing a double-take when he was spotted heading to a private airport late Wednesday night. The superstar, who has been busy juggling multiple work commitments, made a striking appearance that instantly grabbed attention, and within minutes, social media was flooded with reactions.
Salman Khan Brings Back ’90s Glasses
Dressed in a black shirt and jeans, Salman Khan looked effortlessly dapper. However, it was his nostalgic spectacle look that truly stole the show. Paired with a leaner frame and a sharper jawline and clean-shaven look, the glasses transported fans straight back to his ’90s and early 2000s era.
Salman also shared a video of himself singing “Mera Jee Nahi Bhara” earlier this morning, sparking speculation that it could be linked to his upcoming film Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace.

He looks in form (sic),” celebrating the return of his romantic-era charm.
