Bollywood megastar Salman Khan is all set to mark a significant personal milestone as he turns 60 on Friday, December 27. In keeping with his long-standing tradition, the actor will opt for a simple and private celebration, steering clear of any large-scale industry bash. The festivities are planned to be held at his sprawling farmhouse in Panvel, with attendance strictly limited to his inner circle.
A Small Circle of Trust for the Big 6-0
According to reports, the guest list for Salman Khan's 60th birthday is exceptionally curated and intimate. The celebration will only include his immediate family members, a handful of his closest friends from within and outside the film industry, and a few directors with whom he shares a strong bond. The emphasis, as always, is on cherished relationships and trust built over decades, rather than on glitz and glamour. This low-key style has been the actor's preferred way of ringing in his new year for a long time, and he sees no reason to change it even for this landmark age.
The Last of the Legendary Khans to Hit the Milestone
This birthday carries an added sentimental weight for Bollywood fans. Salman Khan is the last of the three iconic Khans of Hindi cinema to reach the age of 60. His contemporaries and fellow superstars, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan, celebrated their 60th birthdays earlier this year. Shah Rukh Khan turned 60 on November 2, while Aamir Khan reached the milestone on March 14. For an entire generation that grew up watching their films dominate the box office, Salman's 60th feels like the closing of a major chapter in Bollywood history, evoking a profound sense of nostalgia.
A Special Birthday Gift for Fans: 'Battle of Galwan' Teaser
While the birthday party itself will be a private affair, Salman Khan has arranged a grand treat for his millions of fans worldwide. In a delightful coincidence, the makers of his upcoming film, 'Battle of Galwan', have announced that the movie's first teaser will be released on December 27 itself. This strategic release is being viewed as a perfect birthday gift from the star to his ardent followers, who are eagerly awaiting his next big-screen appearance. The announcement has generated significant excitement on social media.
On the work front, Salman Khan was last seen in the action-packed film 'Sikandar', directed by AR Murugadoss of 'Thuppakki' fame and co-starring Rashmika Mandanna. The film opened to mixed reactions from audiences and critics. All eyes are now on his future projects, with the 'Battle of Galwan' teaser drop adding to the birthday buzz.
