Inside, family like Salim Khan and stars like Huma Qureshi partied hard. But what’s next for the ageless action hero after Sikandar’s flop?
Salman celebrates his birthday with paps
Superstar Salman Khan kicked off his 60th birthday celebrations on December 27 at his luxurious Panvel farmhouse near Mumbai. As midnight struck, he stepped out under tight security to greet the waiting paparazzi, turning the moment into a cheerful public fiesta before his private bash. Dressed casually in a black T-shirt, blue jeans, and flaunting a clean-shaven look, Salman cut a stunning red-and-white birthday cake while photographers sang “Happy Birthday” around him.
Videos circulating on social media show Salman offering cake slices to the media, posing for photos with a big smile, and warmly hugging a female paparazzo before kissing her forehead. The actor was seen in a jovial mood, laughing and smiling as he interacted with the paparazzi. This heartwarming gesture won over fans online, with clips garnering millions of views.

Star-Studded farmhouse bash
Salman chose a close-knit gathering at his Panvel property, where guests like father Salim Khan and actor Huma Qureshi arrived on Friday night. The low-key yet grand event highlighted his family bonds amid tight security. No official quotes from Salman surfaced, but his actions spoke volumes—sharing joy with fans outside before joining loved ones inside.
Recent hits and misses
Salman was last seen in the big-screen actioner Sikandar, which failed to impress audiences despite hype. He made a fun cameo in Aryan Khan’s directorial debut web series The Ba***ds of Bollywood on Netflix, a satirical take on Bollywood’s underbelly. Fans also loved his hosting stint on Bigg Boss 19, keeping his TV presence strong.
Epic comeback ahead
Next up is Battle of Galwan, a gritty war drama directed by Apoorva Lakhia, inspired by the 2020 India-China clash in Ladakh’s Galwan Valley. Salman stars alongside Chitrangda Singh, portraying soldiers’ hand-to-hand bravery with sticks and stones—no guns used. Chitrangda shared, “Ek baar maine commitment kar di, toh main apne aap ki bhi nahi sunta,” praising Salman’s dedication, as quoted in India Today. Apoorva Lakhia added, “We are delighted to welcome Chitrangda Singh… She brings a unique combination of strength and sensitivity.” Shot in harsh Leh conditions, the film under Salman Khan Films promises patriotism and action.
