Bollywood superstar Salman Khan treated his fans to a warm surprise by sharing a stunning poolside selfie on social media, thanking them for the overwhelming love and birthday wishes he received on his 60th birthday on December 27, 2025. Along with the picture, Salman wrote, “Thank u for all your love n good wishes means a lot god bless u all vit health n happiness,” a message that instantly resonated with millions of admirers.
The photo captures Salman in a relaxed mood, wearing a casual grey T-shirt and a plaid hat, standing amid lush greenery near a pool. The effortless, calm vibe of the selfie perfectly reflected the actor’s approachable persona, which fans have cherished over the years. The post quickly went viral, with comments pouring in from fans calling him “Bhai,” “evergreen,” and “the people’s superstar.”
Salman’s post came shortly after a private birthday celebration at his Panvel farmhouse, attended by close friends and family. The low-key yet star-studded gathering included names like Sanjay Dutt and former Indian cricket captain MS Dhoni, making it a memorable milestone celebration for the actor. Earlier visuals of Salman enjoying a bike ride around his farmhouse had already won hearts online.
On the professional front, Salman Khan is gearing up for one of the most ambitious films of his career, Battle of Galwan, an upcoming Hindi-language war drama inspired by the 2020 Galwan Valley clash between Indian and Chinese troops. The film is based on real events and draws inspiration from the book “India’s Most Fearless 3.”
In Battle of Galwan, Salman essays the role of Colonel B. Santosh Babu, the commanding officer of the 16 Bihar Regiment, who was posthumously awarded the Maha Vir Chakra for his bravery. The film also stars Chitrangda Singh as the female lead, with Ankur Bhatia, Abhilash Chaudhary, Vipin Bhardwaj, and Zeyn Shaw in supporting roles. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, the film features music by Himesh Reshammiya and is produced under Salman Khan Films with an estimated budget of ₹100 crore.
The teaser of Battle of Galwan was released on Salman’s birthday, adding to the excitement among fans. The film is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on April 17, 2026, and promises a powerful portrayal of courage, sacrifice, and patriotism, shot extensively in the challenging terrains of Ladakh.
As Salman Khan steps into a new decade of his life, his heartfelt gratitude, grounded personality, and commitment to meaningful cinema continue to strengthen his bond with fans across generations.
