Birthday wishes have been pouring in from all parts of the world for actor Salman Khan, who turns 60 today. Earlier this Saturday, Katrina Kaif shared a heartfelt tribute to Salman on his birthday. She posted a black-and-white photograph of him on her Instagram Stories, calling him a "super human" and wishing him "love and light" in his daily life. She also continued her customary practice of addressing Salman by his character name, Tiger, from their famous spy franchise. Netizens, especially fans of both actors, have been embracing Katrina's gesture towards Salman with open arms.
Despite their romantic history, the actors have maintained one of the most stable friendships in the Hindi film industry. Reportedly, Salman is a close friend of Katrina even after her marriage to Vicky Kaushal. They last collaborated on the 2023 film, Tiger 3, the third entry in the popular franchise.
Katrina Kai's birthday wish for Salman Khan also comes a few months after the emergence of a fake image claiming that he has made a snarky comment about the former and her actor spouse Vicky Kaushal’s baby announcement post. However, many publications who looked at the facts confirmed the claim as being fake and such an interaction as being nonexistent. Netizens seem to be particularly happy about the actors' present status because of their once-troubled history. There are famous "spats" dating back two decades, such as the 2008 party where Salman and Shah Rukh Khan had a fallout, but these issues have long been resolved.
On the work front, Salman Khan is filming his upcoming war drama, Battle of Galwan, directed by Apoorva Lakhia, the teaser for which released earlier today. On the other hand, Katrina Kaif is taking a break from films after welcoming her first child, a baby boy, in November this year.
