Aayush Sharma, who co-starred with Salman Khan in the 2021 film ‘Antim,’ recently revealed details about their initial encounter. He disclosed that their first meeting occurred late at night at Arpita Khan’s residence, who happens to be Salman’s younger sister.

At the time, Aayush and Arpita were in a relationship, and she had invited him to join her for some TV viewing. Remarkably, Aayush mentioned that Salman was unaware of their relationship until that moment.

Aayush revealed that during their initial meeting, he introduced himself to Salman Khan, and Salman responded with a simple, “I’m Salman Khan,” in an innocent manner. After exchanging greetings, Aayush left the encounter as he felt a slight awkwardness creeping in. However, to his surprise, the following day, Salman Khan, the star of “Tiger Zinda Hai,” gave him a call and requested a meeting.

During the interview, Aayush remembered that Salman had conducted comprehensive research, and the very first remark he made to Aayush was, “You’re a good boy.” Afterwards, when Salman asked about his future plans, Aayush said “I would like to marry her.”

Surprisingly, as Sharma disclosed, he hadn’t even proposed to Arpita yet. Moreover, considering that Aayush was just 24 years old back then, Salman said, “Aren’t you a child yourself?”
