1. Salman Reveals He Lost 16 Kgs
Salman finally offered some clarity on his noticeably leaner appearance, which had sparked concern and speculation about his health on social media. During a candid conversation, Salman observed that Sohail had lost weight. The latter proudly showed off his abs and revealed that he had shed 12 kgs. Salman then surprised everyone by disclosing, “I am down 16 kgs.” However, the actor did not reveal why he lost the weight or directly address any illness rumours. Reports have linked the change to his forthcoming action film with Nayanthara, but Salman himself did not confirm that connection during the conversation.
2. Emotional Reunion With Sohail Khan
Salman’s grand entry instantly changed the atmosphere inside the ‘Alliance’ headquarters. As he walked through the yellow gate, the stunned contestants rose from their seats while Sohail became visibly emotional. Salman headed straight towards his brother, and the two shared a warm, tight hug. The moment held even more significance because Sohail had endured a turbulent week following Seema’s exit and an emotional outburst. When Sohail admitted, “I freaked out today,” Salman checked on him and jokingly asked the other contestants whether they were stressing his brother out. The affectionate reunion offered a glimpse of the close bond the two brothers share away from the spotlight.
3. Salman Opens Up About Difficult Time In Jail
In one of the most unexpected and serious moments of his appearance, Salman candidly recalled the harsh conditions he had experienced in jail. Without specifying which period of imprisonment he was referring to, the actor said that around 50 to 70 people had been confined within a small space and forced to share a single Indian-style toilet. He also recalled seeing lizards inside and described the bathroom as overflowing and deeply unhygienic. The revelation left the contestants listening intently as Salman offered a rare first-hand account of that chapter of his life. His frank recollection stood out amid the episode’s otherwise light-hearted exchanges.
4. Salman Defends Sohail Over His Divorce From Seema Sajdeh
Salman also addressed Sohail’s relationship with his ex-wife, Seema Sajdeh. During her stint on ‘Alliance’, Sohail had taken responsibility for the end of their marriage, saying that if any mistakes had occurred between them, he accepted the blame. Salman teased his brother by asking whether he was still listening to Seema, before striking a more emotional note. Calling Sohail his “noble brother,” Salman said that he had taken all the blame upon himself, adding that he knew how hard Sohail had tried and how much emotion he continued to suppress. Importantly, Salman did not blame or attack Seema.
5. Salman’s Playful Warning About Riteish Deshmukh’s Job
Even while dealing with emotional subjects, Salman ensured that the mood did not remain serious for too long. Upon entering, the longtime ‘Bigg Boss’ host reassured everyone, “Don’t worry, I am not here to host.” He later left the contestants amused by quipping, “I think Riteish Deshmukh ki naukri khatre mein lag rahi hai.” The promo did not explain the exact context behind the remark, although viewers interpreted it as a playful reference to Riteish’s reality-show hosting duties on ‘Lock Upp 2’. Salman also pulled Mini Mathur’s leg by telling her that he now understood why her husband, filmmaker Kabir Khan, was “so scared” of her. The spontaneous jokes brought Salman’s signature hosting energy to ‘Alliance’ and ended his headline-making appearance on a lively note.
