'Logon ke saath reh kar pak jaata hu': Salman Khan clarifies viral 'lonely' post

Mumbai, May 19

Actor Salman Khan has cleared the air after his recent "alone and lonely" post created speculation online.

The actor took to his X account on Sunday, asking fans to "chill" as the post was not about his personal life.

Earlier, Salman had shared a shirtless picture of himself relaxing on a couch and wrote, "By I me myself, 2 ways to be by yr self, Alone and Lonely, Alone is by choice n lonely when nobody wants to be with u..... Ab iske aage you Figure out what you need to do."

The post went viral in no time, with several of his fans wondering if the actor was hinting at loneliness. However, Salman later shared another message and assured everyone that there was no reason to worry.

Reacting to the chatter around his post, Salman wrote, "Arre yaar Mai apne bare mai nahi baat kar raha tha. How can i be alone when i have such a large amazing family n friends n how can I be lonely when I have u guys, your wishes n Duas... I would be the biggest na shukra ever."

The actor also jokingly shared that sometimes he gets tired of being around people all the time and likes spending some quiet time alone.

"Kabhi Kabhi logon ke saath reh kar pak jaata hun, isliye some me time, buss... Iss baar koi photo nahi breaking news bana diya, Mummy pooch rahi hai, 'Kya hua beta?' Chill maro yaar," he added.

On the work front, Salman will next be seen in the film 'Maatrubhumi', where he will share screen space with Chitrangada Singh. The film, earlier titled 'Battle of Galwan', is based on the 2020 Galwan Valley clash between India and China. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia and produced under Salman Khan Films, 'Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace' is expected to release soon.

Salman bhai ne absolutely correct kaha. Sometimes being with people all the time is exhausting. Log logon ke saath reh kar pak jaate hain. And hum fan log to wish karte hain unke liye. Chill maar Salman bhai! Mummy ki fikar bhi cute hai. 😂

I think he shouldn't have posted that first cryptic message if he didn't want rumors. But then again, celebrities ke liye privacy possible nahi hai. Jaise hi kuch bhi post karo, usse breaking news bana diya jaata hai. Sad but true. Everyone needs some quiet time.

Its nice to see he cleared it up quickly. I've been a fan since Maine Pyar Kiya days. Family aur fans se pyar hai to loneliness nahi. Also his upcoming film about Galwan clash sounds interesting - "Maatrubhumi". That should be a powerful movie!

As someone who also gets tired of social interactions, I completely relate to his "logon ke saath reh kar pak jaata hun" line. Introverts understand this need for solitude. Respect for being honest about it. And Mummy asking "Kya hua beta?" is peak Indian parenting moment! 😄

Honestly, I think it's good he clarified. People can take things too literally. But Salman should be careful with such posts - big influence on youth. Baaki, good luck for Maatrubhumi! Looking forward to seeing
