In Pictures: B-Town’s inseparable buddies – Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt

Salman Khan yelled at a ‘Bigg Boss’ contestant

One of the most memorable seasons of ‘Bigg Boss’ was when Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt hosted the show together. The duo gave us many incredible moments which left a lifetime impression on the audience. In one such episode, Salman literally lost his temper on one of the contestants as he apparently disrespected Sanjay Dutt.

Brotherly bond!

Salman and Sanjay have always maintained that ‘brother from another mother’ notion. The two stars share a such an adorable bond that they refer each other to be ‘Chhota Bhai’ and ‘Bada Bhai’. In one of the interviews Sanjay had gone on records to say that Salman is my younger brother and he will always pray for his well-being. He said, “Salman mera chota bhai hai aur hamesha rahega. Main pray karta hoon ki wo issey bhi bada star baney.” In another interview, Sanjay also confessed that he almost convinced Salman to get married and settle down.

Sanju, we support you!

While digging some of the rare pictures of Salman and Sanjay we came across a picture of Salman Khan captured with Ajay Devgn, Saif Ali Khan and Akshay Kumar. All the stars had a pamphlet which read, 'Sanju, We are with you.’ This was right after Sanjay was sent to prison following the TADA case in the year 1993.

Salman Khan extended support to Trishala

When the court sentenced Sanjay Dutt with five years imprisonment, the first thing that Salman Khan did was to call Sanjay’s daughter Trishala who is in the US. A source was then quoted saying, “Salman was in America when the news of Dutt`s conviction broke. The first person Salman called was Trishala who has been away from her father for a long time. Sallu promised to be there for her whenever she needed him.” Salman has always stood by Sanjay’s family when he was serving his jail term. In fact there are reports which state that Salman had given Sanjay access to his Panvel farmhouse just to spend some tranquil time when he was out on parole.

Special letter on Salman’s birthday!

The entire film fraternity diverts their path and heads to Salman’s Panvel farmhouse on December 27 to ring in Bhaijaan’s birthday and this year it was all the more special because it was Salman’s 50th birthday. Who’s who from the industry were present at his farmhouse but the only face missing was of his best buddy Sanjay Dutt. Sanju Baba was serving his jail term at the Yerwada, but he didn’t fail to send a special handwritten letter to Salman Khan to wish him a ‘Very Happy Birthday.’ Reports suggest that when this letter was flashed on screen, Salman couldn’t control himself and broke down in tears in front of everyone.

The bromance!

Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt appeared in a film called 'Chal Mere Bhai' and we just couldn't stop gushing over their on-screen bromance which eventually got extended to real life.
