Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit’s on-screen chemistry has resulted in many successful films, creating a popular pairing in the 90s. Their movies consistently performed well at the box office. During a song launch event, an esteemed actor, who Salman Khan looks up to as a father figure, made a humorous remark, accidentally referring to Salman as Madhuri Dixit’s son.
The duo’s films were always highly anticipated. A notable collaboration was ‘Dil Tera Aashiq,’ which hit theaters on October 22, 1993. Directed by Lawrence D’Souza, the film featured Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit, alongside Anupam Kher, Shakti Kapoor, and Kader Khan.
A lighthearted incident occurred during the launch of the title song of ‘Dil Tera Aashiq,’ prompting laughter among the attendees. The event included the film’s star cast, singer Alka Yagnik, and veteran actor Dharmendra. As the title song was being launched, Dharmendra was interacting with the audience.
Dharmendra praised Madhuri Dixit, calling her ‘our world-class Madhuri Dixit.’ When he turned to compliment Salman, he mistakenly said ‘their son Suleiman.’ This statement immediately caused laughter. Dharmendra swiftly realized his error and apologized to Salman.
Salman Khan prevented him from apologizing further and embraced him. The songs from ‘Dil Tera Aashiq’ were well-received by the audience. The lyrics were by Sameer. The film, produced by Rakesh Nath, did well commercially. The title song, ‘Dil Tera Aashiq,’ featured Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu.
