Last Sunday, all roads led to the D.Y. Patil Stadium, in Nerul. The sweltering heat and the bumper-to- bumper traffic could not drown the excitement…it was a feeling I was sharing with the entire city, the whole country. The 44day IPL tournament was filled with anticipation, excitement, drama, agony & ecstasy… and the grand finale today was like a rock concert, with laser lights, music and dancers. It was glitz and glamour full throttle and I was to be a part of it.
It is only once you are part of something that you fully feel the passion the glory of it all. I had asked Sajid & Wajid, the music composers, to attend the rehearsals with me. I wanted them to ‘feel’ the spirit and capture it in a Theme Song for the show. They not only captured the spirit, the energy, the pace, the Dum of the show but as expected they did a brilliant job of it. The 10 ka Dum song is a racy pacy youthful number and I loved shooting it in less than four hours!
Serenading my way through the 65,000 odd crowds, I reached the stadium. Amidst waving & cheering crowds, the lights glowed the music blasted and the closing ceremony got started off. A group of dancers performed to some of my popular film songs… soon breaking into the awesome Dum da Dum music track. The entire stadium rocked to the music; while I made my entry …the moment was delirious, captivating! Being in front of, facing thousands of avam - it was simply mind blowing! It felt so good and made me once again realize how blessed I am. So many loving fans who shower so much love and good cheer, frenzied spectators it was like I had hamara bharat & the entire world watching and cheering me on!
When my father, Salim Khan, saw the rush print of my first film Sooraj Barjatiya’s Maine Pyar Kiya, I was very anxious to know his opinion. I approached him with a great deal of apprehension. I was relieved to learn from him that the film would be a major hit. He also said that no one could stop me from becoming a star, expect myself. I couldn’t understand this at that time, but later realized how correct he was.

Really Salman, your performance in the IPL was amazing, as always. When the dancers were performing on your numbers and you were not there, I was getting bonkers why you are not coming? I felt like punching them from the TV screen and say "Pave the way for Salman!" LOL...but you were rocking! I loved your dance moves:)
SALMAN will emerge as a great anchor with Dus ka dum. We wish and hope he get positive response for this show.
And truely, parents are amazing. We need their presence always. I often call up my mother from office, just like that. And that makes my day. Cheers to all parents! :)
Respectable Salman:
Although I know some rudimentary aspects of yuga & tai chi chuan ,I use them in my daily physical experiences ,due to it grant me the feeling of being powerful, strong & healthy !
From my childhood I learn to look trough the universe as my teacher! But in my physical experiences I had 4 teachers that learn me splendid lessons !
1: to be disburdened alike the wind.
2: to be penetrate, flexible & pure alike the water .
3: to be powerful alike an elephant.
4:To be quick alike a tiger.
Dear Salman I’m so sorry if I badger you with my commends.
I know that you are the person that should advice us, due to your life is abounded with a lot of precious experiences!
By sending my commends I just want to share them with you!
Hope you forgive me……
With respect,Maria

quote:Parents are amazing people, they stand by you always…
i love this this part because i know that is true.unfortunatly not in all cases because are parents who dosn't want them kids,who don't care about them...but are persons like you who decide to give a bether life to a kid who forget to smile(i'm speaking about arpita)
You're an angel.Never Change...NEVER
i love the way your father speak...forgive me for what i will say now but i always have the impresion that your father is cold with you....but now i realise that i was wrong because thanks to you i get to understand him as well.
your father is not the kind of person who will tell you "you're the best" because this will be someting that you want to hear for him and you also told us once that if your father will tell you that is proud of you then nothing else mater...so your father will not tell you this because he know that for him and for us you'll try to be bether every day more.and yes HE'S RIGHT ONE MORE TIME because i can feel that this is what you do.
God bless your father,God bless you and all your family.
much love
Corina-Romania
Dear Salman Bhai,Yes you are right Parents are what they really are,caring,loving,well wisher.You are their most loving being in this world.Unkey liye aap ki khushi is jahan ke barabar hai.Aap unsey khush kar saktey hei EK achcha LADKI ko Shadi karkey.Please jaldi kijiye,time beet jaaraha hai.Un logoko aur dukhi maat banaiye.Islam mei har kabil Mard ko Shadi karna Farz hei.agar nehi Kiya to Pita Mata se is gunah ka saza bhogat parta hai.Keya aap avi vi yehi chahta hei.
Hi salman bhai
ya v truly said,parents are always there with us in our tough times.
Heya Salman,
I am sure you were awesome in the IPL show.
Unfortunately I could not catch the first bit of the match so I missed out on your performance.
But what are the bakwaas news channels for.:)
Saw glimpses there.
You were rocking and the whole promotion bit during the IPL was a great idea.One could not have asked for a better exposure than that.Kudos.
Well said "Parents are amazing people, they stand by you always"… yes i truly belive that.. and yayay one more day then i get to watch ur show.. yayaya:) SOO EXICTED FOR IT..
All the best!!!
One more day to go :)
Please click here to view my earlier post regarding the story for Partner II
IPL was amazing.
i loved the second paragraph. very beautifully written.
btw, i myself have seen 'maine pyar kiya' 250+ times... i think. you never get tired of watching that movie.
i cant see anyone else in that role!
yeah salman you are very right in your last line, parents are there with you ,dead or alive..its still the same .. plz reply once again to salfar@live.com
...the truth is that u looked very handsome & energetic at IPL.
u apeared there like the first star on the night sky - a too little spot for someones ,but that little spot was as the cherry from the cake.
really,i cannt understand from where u have so much energy all the time,for everything!
seems that your day has more then 24 hours.
i never have enough time for anything...
for god sake,take care of yourself,we need u so much!
love
Hello Salman Bhai
I like the unique style you are The Best ...
God Bless You !!
Salman Bhai who stars
Which claimed the hosts in 10 Ka Dum !
I wish to attend Stars Like ...
Govinda - David Dhawan - Shah Rukh Khan - Amir Khan - Kareena -Saif - Rani - Preity and more ....
Would be wonderful !!
Keep your own style your the best. Being true to yourself is what makes your acting interesting beyond borders, beyond cultures. My father raised me looking at movies with Gene Kelly, Johnny Weissmuller, Dana Andrews... I've finally found in India a little of them all in one person...choukria! Can't wait to see your performance at the IPL... Will try to find it on the web. You're simply the best, better than all the rest (sorry someone sing it before me)whenever you're on stage!
hiiiiiiiiiiiiii how r u?????????????????anxoiusly awaiting for dus ka dum just 1 day to go....................
Nice new wallpaper.
waiting for your show....you will be great...you are the one and only one...good luck
hey salman...first of all lots of wishes for ur new show on Sony which i m sure wud b entertaining just for the simple fact that u wud b a part of it.....but i know that hosting a show on television wud b a real job for u as its really spontaneous....anyways u will do it...all of us know that....so take care
Hey salman,
I watched your performance on you tube...you were fantastic!!! I've no idea how cricket is played or what so ever, but when i saw your performance i was blowed over. You were so so good...the whole stadium was cheering you on...and that's what i call true fan following. Basically im very glad that you are blogging regularly. Talking about your parents..well ive a freind here who's mom is your father's cousion...like second or first cousion! Yea i know it's totllay amazing. She showed us a movie of your farmhouse when she went to India...i saw your grandfather and your gym. I love your family..their so close and loving, i would looove to meet you and them one day. Please take care and ther's only 1 day left. LOVE LOVE
Hi Salman, Good luck for 2mrw(not that you'll be needing it for sure!). Can't wait to watch you on the show, not sure when it's on where I live(in London)...I'm dying to watch you host. Parents are absolutely amazing, they always know whats right for us, it's just a shame most of us realise this later in life as we grow older and experience certain situations for ourselves. Won't go on about 'parents' as I'm sure others replying have covered it all. Best of luck and lots of love...more than you know...I've been a fan from 1989 and you're the only one who cheers me up on a bad day, or should I say, your video clips. The show will be great inshallah. Take Care.xx
Salman you know great success comes to those who love, respect and take care of their parents.
You are a shining example of this.
The best thing about you is that you don't do and say things for the benefit of the media or fans alike.
You are yourself without being pretentious, this for me is the best thing about you.
And the best thing you could have done for this show is being yourself.
We love you Salman and respect your decisions, be it maintaining a dignified silence in the face of false accusations.
As you rightfully said that those who love and know you don't need explanations and justifications.
Wish you well.
Please Please Please can we have some info on wanted dead and alive.
Dear salman,
We all r very happy and waiting for u to appear on the small screen....
I must say its a very nice decision of urs about blogging with ur fans........
