00:00You get fired even now by your father?

00:01Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:02What is your reaction when he screams at you?

00:04I just, right now, mum, I just feel when she hits me now, I just feel the hand.

00:08She hits you?

00:08Yeah, yeah, she top-loves me, you know.

00:10He can't handle those big houses with intercoms.

00:12He has to still do that.

00:19So the love is like that, that we still live in a, you know, at Galaxy apartment.

00:24So, we all three used to share one room.

00:27One room?

00:27Yeah.

00:28Because there were only two rooms.

00:29One for my parents and one for the children.

00:31Oh, there was no other choice.

00:32No, one room was for Alvira.

00:34Ah, of course.

00:35Then we three used to be, you know, staying in one room till the time we bought the flat next door.

00:41Right.

00:41And then Sohail moved there into a small, there was a two-bedroom there.

00:46So, Sohail moved into one room and I moved into the other.

00:49I've been to your tiny bedroom also, sir, when I narrated my first film to you.

00:52Your first film to me, so that was where, and nothing has changed.

00:55But what was it like?

00:56I mean, I just want to know that, you know.

00:57I've just moved down and my house is still there.

01:00You've come to my house so many times, it's again just a one-bedroom there.

01:03But why are you so confined to that space?

01:05Basically, he can't handle those big houses with intercoms.

01:08He has to still do that.

01:11Is that how you call anyone?

01:13Anyone.

01:13Has any member of your family ever told you a ground truth that really shook you up?

01:19Like something that really, like, you know, maybe career-wise or personal-wise or...

01:23So, there was a time when, you know, films were not working

01:28and I was really enjoying myself and working,

01:30but I was not getting that kind of work.

01:32So, now, one day I was having a conversation with my father and he said,

01:37you know, Salman, you've been one of the bigger and the highest-paid actor in the film industry

01:44and you've been working for, you know, the last 10, 15 years.

01:49What do you think that, how much money do you think you would have?

01:53So, I did a math, I said, you know, maybe about a hundred.

01:56He said, no, no.

01:58You've been working such a long time, you've been...

02:00So, I said, more.

02:02He said, idiot, if today there's an illness in the family,

02:07we will not have that money to save that person.

02:10And I swore on God, I just did this.

02:13I did that, I said, really?

02:15It was 11 o'clock in the morning.

02:17I went down and I saw my phone.

02:20I just made it up in my mind, I said, you know,

02:23this is something that I want to look into, totally look into.

02:26I remember at that point in time, I had gotten three calls.

02:30One was Rajkumar Santoshi's missed call,

02:32one was Sanjay Leela Bansali's missed call,

02:35and there was somebody else, Sunil Manchanda.

02:40That, three calls I had.

02:41They called to offer you work.

02:43Yeah, and we just called.

02:45So, I said, let's start from here.

02:48So, you also got that reality check at one point in time?

02:50I get it all the time.

02:51I get the reality check every...

02:53Do you get fired even now by your father?

02:55Yeah, yeah.

02:55What is your reaction when he screams at you?

02:57I just, right now, mom, I just feel when she hits me now,

03:00I just feel the hand...

03:01She hits you?

03:02Yeah, yeah, she just topples me down.

03:03So, I just feel that her hand will get hurt.

03:07So, even as kids, when she used to hit us,

03:09we used to feel really bad that mom doesn't get hurt.

03:12Dad, on the other hand, is a very strong hand.

03:16You haven't, in your older years,

03:18got slapped by your father?

03:19Oh, yes, of course I have.

03:20What is the...

03:21Nothing wrong.

03:22There's nothing wrong with that.

03:24There's nothing wrong with that.

03:25I didn't mind that at all because, you know...

03:30I want to know, besides your father,

03:32who has the guts to slap Salman Khan?

03:35They're worried for you.

03:36Yeah, of course.

03:37They're worried for you.

03:38And when they see you going wrong...

03:39No, no, we were talking too.

03:39I still get fired by my mother.

03:41And when she doesn't, she's done firing me...

03:43Your mother sent me a message three days ago.

03:45My apologies.

03:46Yeah, yeah.

03:47Complaining about me to Salman.

03:48Because he ends his show saying that,

03:50don't hassle your mother.

03:52And for some reason, my mother thought that

03:53Salman has become this brand ambassador

03:56of goodness to mothers.

03:57So, now change it.

03:59What do you do?

03:59Whatever you want, man.

04:00But don't let your mother trouble you.

04:01I think he's one of the coolest fathers.

04:04When dad and Jawed Sahib broke up.

04:06Right.

04:07Okay?

04:07He called all of us and he says,

04:08Look, he used to work.

04:12Now he's not working.

04:14Whenever you meet Jawed Sahib, Honey Aunty,

04:17you still give them that respect

04:20of Jawed Uncle, Honey Aunty.

04:23Farhan and Zoya, they're always going to be

04:26like the way they are with you now.

04:29They were with you.

04:31So, that thing got stuck.

04:33So, even when Shah Rukh had that problem,

04:37that was hardly a problem.

04:38One day something happened, we moved on.

04:42Never stopped anyone.

04:44That I saw.

04:44When they asked us.

04:45I saw that.

04:46I saw that with Arbaaz and Suhail.

04:47In fact, they gave him the same amount

04:50of love and respect that they always did.

04:52So, when I was asked, I said,

04:53No, that's nothing to do with you guys.

04:56Gauri is there.

04:57The children are there.

04:58The children are friends.

04:59Okay?

05:00You go for parties and all.

05:02You guys go.

05:03These small, small things don't matter.

05:04Yeah.

05:05The bigger ones, the larger ones.

05:07Right.

05:07So, then we stick by.
