On the occasion of Salman Khan’s 60th birthday, Megastar Chiranjeevi took to social media to share a moving message for his "beloved brother," Sallu Bhai.
In his post, Chiranjeevi highlighted that Salman’s impact extends far beyond his massive onscreen presence. He described the Bollywood icon as a true inspiration and a cherished friend, wishing him a milestone year filled with "endless joy, good health, and all the love you truly deserve." The message reflects a deep, personal connection that transcends the boundaries of Tollywood and Bollywood.
The duo's mutual respect was most palpable during the promotions for the 2022 film The Godfather, which marked Salman’s debut in Telugu cinema. During the promotional events, Chiranjeevi revealed that when he approached Salman for the cameo, the actor didn't even ask to see the script or his character brief—he simply said, "Chiru Garu, if you want me to do it, I will do it." In response, Salman expressed his immense admiration for the Megastar, stating that he agreed to the project solely out of his love for "Big Brother" Chiranjeevi. He noted that their relationship is built on a foundation where no questions are asked, only support is given—a sentiment that continues to define their enduring brotherhood.
