Veteran actor Adi Irani, brother of Bollywood actress Aruna Irani, recently opened up about his experience working with Salman Khan in the 2001 film 'Chori Chori Chupke Chupke'. Known for his roles in 'Beta', 'Baazigar', and 'Dil', Adi recalled an incident where Salman’s on-set behavior left him injured.

Salman Khan Threw Adi Irani Into a Glass Frame, Leaving Him Bleeding

In an interaction with Filmymantra Media, Adi shared that Salman Khan was quite rowdy on set. He revealed that during one particular scene, Salman threw him into a glass frame, resulting in severe injuries to his face.

"While shooting for Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, he threw me into a glass frame. Glass pieces injured my face. It was bleeding. Bahut bura haal hua tha mera (I was in terrible condition). The shoot would have been canceled if I hadn’t insisted on continuing. It would have been halted for one to two months, causing financial losses for the producers, but I supported them," Adi said.

Salman Khan’s Reaction to the Incident

When asked about Salman Khan’s response to the accident, Adi Irani shared, "When I first got injured, he just walked away. He saw the blood but left the set and went to his room—no apology, nothing. But the next day, when I came for the shoot, he called me to his room and said, ‘Adi, I am really sorry. I can’t even look into your eyes. I am feeling so bad.’”

Adi further added that Salman later spoke to him nicely and expressed regret over the incident.

Salman Khan’s Attitude on Set

While discussing Salman’s attitude, Adi mentioned that the actor lives on his own terms. “If he doesn’t want to do something, no one can force him. But it’s not arrogance—it’s a kind of childishness,” he explained.
