Sheeba shared how Salman’s family made her feel at home since she wasn’t originally from Mumbai. "When his parents found out I wasn't from Bombay, they would invite me over, saying, 'Come to our house and have a meal here. Don’t feel alone.' And he was lovely as well. When my mom was on set, Salman would spend more time with her than with me. He was extremely nice,” she recalled.
She also highlighted Salman’s protective nature, especially towards his female co-stars. "He was fun and very protective of his heroines, which I think he still is. He used to protect the heroines a lot," Sheeba added.
"We were all kids back then"
Reflecting on how things have changed over the years, Sheeba mentioned, "Everyone has grown up now. When you meet people you worked with after many years, there's still that respect, a love, and a sense of familiarity that remains. We were all kids back then."
Sheeba revealed that she hasn’t seen Salman for quite some time. "I haven’t really met him in a long time. I’ve just waved and said hi to him from a distance at a party," she said.

Sheeba on working in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani
Sheeba made a brief appearance in Karan Johar’s 2023 film 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani', where she shared a scene with veteran actor Dharmendra. Talking about the role, she said, "I think Karan randomly saw me and said, ‘Wow, this is a good option,’ but they got a bit scared when they approached me because they said, ‘You will have to kiss Dharmendra.’ I was like, ‘Okay, I need some time to think. I will have to check with my husband if he’s okay with it.’ And then my husband said, ‘It’s okay, it’s a fun little thing in the film. It isn’t something you can’t watch with the kids.’ I said, ‘Okay, I can do it, no worries.’ Incidentally, the kiss didn’t happen, it just turned out to be a sweet little peck and it was a very cute guest appearance.”
Sheeba also mentioned that her cameo in 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' was an exception, as she now prefers not to take on smaller roles.
