In a resurfaced clip from a 2019 interview with Komal Nahta, Salim Khan, the veteran screenwriter and father of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, opened up about the reasons behind his son's prolonged bachelorhood. Salim's candid remarks shed light on Salman’s personal life and his reservations about marriage.

During the interview, Salim Khan discussed his son’s hesitation towards marriage, attributing it to a lack of courage. "He easily enters into relationships, but he lacks the courage to get married," said the superstar's father. "He has a very simple nature and gets attracted easily. However, he always wonders whether the woman can manage a family like his mother does."

Salim elaborated on these expectations, stating, "He wants the woman he marries to be dedicated to her husband and children, just like his mother was. She should cook meals for the children, help them get ready, and ensure their homework is done. However, this is not easy in today’s times.”
