Salman Khan may have a bold, hot-headed nature, but deep down, he is intensely emotional. The Dabaang actor cherishes every relationship in his life. He has a huge admiration for his father, Salim Khan, and mother, Sushila Charak, aka Salma Khan. But just like every father-son relationship, Salman Khan also once had a fallout with his father, Salim Khan, and the reason was his stepmother, Helen Richardson.
Salman Khan was completely shattered when he learnt of his father marrying Helen in 1981. Salim Khan was married to Sushila for the past 17 years and had four children: Salman, Sohail, Arbaaz, and Alvira. However, Salim, who was one-half of the iconic screenwriter duo of Salim-Javed, developed good relations within the industry after achieving success. He had come close to Helen in the late 1970s and decided to marry her around 1980.
Salman Khan Was Heartbroken After Learning Of Salim Khan’s Second Marriage
When the news reached Salman, he was devastated. He couldn’t process the fact that his father had brought another woman into their lives despite being married once. Salman is a mama’s boy and couldn’t see her hurt. He once revealed that the whole family was against Salim’s second marriage. “My mom’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I can’t say why; I don’t think explanations are needed. We get along very well because basically, I’m a mama’s boy. I can’t bear to see her unhappy. She was very hurt when my father married again. I’d hate it when she’d wait up for him to come home,” ” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow noopener”Masala quoted Salman Khan.
