Abhishek Kumar: Abhishek Kumar, who grabbed everyone's attention in Bigg Boss Season 17 with his sharp demeanor and powerful gameplay, has now carved a new identity for himself on the small screen through his hard work and dedication. Despite several controversies in the show, he emerged as the first runner-up and is now appearing in one project after another. Recently, in a podcast interview, he revealed a very special anecdote related to Salman Khan, which could make his fans emotional.
A Special Meeting After Bigg Boss
Abhishek Kumar shared that he got a chance to meet Salman Khan again during the Bigg Boss Season 18 party. This is the same Abhishek whom Salman had often reprimanded on-screen in Season 17, regarding his behavior, anger, and fights. But this time, the atmosphere was completely different.
As soon as Salman Khan saw Abhishek at the party, he embraced him and took him to a corner, holding his hand. Moreover, he praised Abhishek to everyone present at the party and said, "Look at this boy; when he came on the show, he had nothing, and look at him today – he is working, earning money, and has even bought a new car."
Salman Knew Everything About Abhishek
When Abhishek asked Salman how he knew about his car (Rubicon), Salman smiled and replied that he knew everything. Hearing this, Abhishek became emotional. He said, "I have been a fan of Salman Khan since childhood. When he was sharing so many details about me, I couldn't believe that he knew a person like me so well." It was a very proud moment for an actor from a small town when an industry veteran not only praised him but also personally honored him.
Salman's Advice That Made Abhishek Think
The most special part of this meeting came when Salman gave Abhishek a very unique and interesting piece of advice. Abhishek said, "I was leaving the party when I touched Salman Sir's feet. He stopped me and said – 'Will you listen to something of mine?' I immediately said yes. Then he smiled and said – 'Get this gap in your teeth filled, you'll go far in life.' Although this advice may seem simple, it shows Salman's foresight in how he can make an artist better – whether it's acting, looks, or screen presence.
Abhishek's Reaction – Not Advice, But a Blessing Received
According to Abhishek, it was not just advice, but a kind of blessing. Salman Khan's way of guiding him and worrying about his future touched him deeply. Abhishek said, "I never thought that one day Salman Sir would hold my hand and talk to me all night and be so serious about my life."
