Zoya's wish was so sweet! The throwback pic must be amazing. Salman Khan's starlight has indeed shone for decades. From 'Maine Pyar Kiya' to now, it's been quite a journey. Here's to the man who defines mass entertainment. 🙌

The guest list is like a who's who of Bollywood and beyond! MS Dhoni too? That's some party. But honestly, more excited about 'Battle of Galwan'. A film on our brave soldiers with Salman in the lead is something to really look forward to. Jai Hind.

Respectfully, while I appreciate his stardom and charity work, I do hope his upcoming film 'Battle of Galwan' handles the sensitive subject of the clash with the utmost respect and accuracy for our martyrs. It's a national sentiment, not just a movie plot.

Heartwarming to see the entire Khan family together, especially the new additions like baby Sipaara. Family is everything. Salman sir, aap ko lambi umar mile! 🎉 The Panvel farmhouse parties are legendary for a reason.

60 and still doing action films like Sultan and now a war drama. His dedication is inspiring. But please, no more 'Race' or 'Radhe' type scripts. We need the 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' and 'Sultan' Salman back! Focus on quality, bhai.
