When Salim Khan had spoken about Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi’s fight over Aishwarya Rai: ‘They fought over a stupid thing’

One is aware of the spat between Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi which went public. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was rumoured to be dating Salman Khan after the duo met on the sets of ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’. Post which, there were rumours of her dating Vivek Oberoi. That led to a fight between Salman and Vivek as during a press conference, the latter had said that Khan was threatening him due to his relationship with Aishwarya. It’s been years since this happened, but the two actors do not interact with each other and have not patched up.

But here’s recalling the time, when Salman’s father Salim Khan had spoken about this fight, in an interview. During a very old chat with Zoom had quoted Salim Khan saying, “There is no logical or rational solution to emotional problems, and both Salman and Vivek have been emotional. Years later, they will realise that they fought over a stupid thing. Koi aur le gaya, koi aur chala and yeh wahi ke wahi hain (Someone else took her away and these two remained where they were).”

He had also predicted about Salman’s marriage and said, “Salman will soon be out of the problems he is surrounded by. He is destined to. From 2009 onwards, times will change for the better for him. If Salman has to get married, it will happen in a year or two; otherwise, chances are bleak. While I love all my children equally the attention, right now, is on Salman because he is going through a difficult time in his life.”

Years later, Vivek had also recently admitted in an interview that his spat with Salman and whatever happened was just unnecessary.
