Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has grabbed a lot of attention due to his recent Instagram post. Supporters flooded the comments with messages of encouragement and even his mother, Salma Khan, reportedly expressed worry. Salman eventually clarified that the statement was not a reflection of his own personal life.
Despite decades of rumours linking him to various co-stars, Salman remains Bollywood’s most famous bachelor. While marriage speculation frequently surfaces in the media, the actor has consistently dismissed these reports, maintaining his single status despite intense public interest.
Earlier, in a conversation with Komal Nahta, Salman's father Salim Khan had spoken about what the actor wants in his partner. Salim explained that Salman is drawn to ambitious, successful women, yet also expects them to prioritise domestic responsibilities.
He noted, "There is a contradiction in his thinking, which is one of the reasons why he’s not married. Salman is mostly attracted to people he works with which is mostly, they are very exciting and good-looking people and there is an attraction while working together. People come because they work in that same atmosphere and 90% times it is the heroine of his film. So, commitment is done and they fall in love."

"But Salman wants to get married and make them sit at home,” the writer had said.
Salim Khan explained, "When the commitment has started and they have started meeting each other, then he tries to convert them and looks for his mother in them. That is not possible. He wants her to drop kids to school like his mother did for them. He wants her to cook breakfast for the kids, make them do their home work, he wants her to do all these normal things that a mother would do at home. So, if he expects this from a girl who is working in films, then it is not possible. Even if the girl tries, it is not possible."
