‘I Had Hernia, Shoulder Messed Up, Aneurysm...’: Salman Khan Opens Up About Multiple Health Issues And Injuries That Stemmed From Sultan - VIDEO

Salman Khan spoke candidly on Koffee With Karan 9 about his health issues and the physical demands of filming Sultan. The actor also addressed the online backlash he received for his appearance on Bigg Boss 20. Salman admitted that his injuries and health problems had affected his physique, saying, "For the people who have been die-hard fans of shirtless me, okay, there was a phase in my life because of a lot of injuries and stuff like that.

It was unfair on them. No matter how old you are, it is unfair on them to see me like that." For the first time, the star opened up about his health issues, mentioning conditions like trigeminal neuralgia, a hernia, and a shoulder injury, all of which stemmed from his work on Sultan. He also revealed that his knee, back, trigeminal neuralgia, and aneurysm were all injuries he sustained during filming.

While Salman emphasized that his current physicality should not be viewed as justification for how he looked during Sultan, he reflected on the need to maintain his fit appearance, as many look up to him for inspiration. He pointed out that younger fans often compare their fathers' fitness to his, asking, "If he is looking like this, then why can't you?"

However, the actor acknowledged that several figures in the industry are fitter than him. During a Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 20, Salman Khan responded to trolls who mocked his age, weight, and physical appearance. He questioned the reasoning behind such trolling, saying, "What do you want to troll? And why do you want to troll?

What is the mentality?" Salman then challenged his critics to look in the mirror, urging them to focus on their own lives and their parents' health rather than body-shaming others.
