Salman Khan Recalls Time In Prison, On Sleep

MUMBAI (ANI): Bollywood superstar Salman Khan recently sat down with his nephew Arhaan Khan on the podcast Dumb Biryani, where he shared personal and professional experiences.

During his first-ever podcast appearance, Salman reflected on his journey. One of the highlights of the conversation was when the Dabangg star briefly spoke about his time in prison.

While discussing the importance of hard work and discipline, the actor emphasized that making excuses, such as needing sleep, becomes an obstacle to success.

He said, “‘I am tired.’ No, get up. No matter how tired you are. ‘I don’t get sleep.’ Don’t sleep. Do something, you’ll automatically go to sleep. So, I don’t understand these things… I sleep for an hour and a half or two hours, and then someday, once in a month, I sleep for seven hours.”

“Some days I’ll get a five-minute break between shots, so I’ll sleep on the chair. In places where I cannot do anything, like when I was in jail, I slept. I couldn’t do anything about it… When it comes to your work or family, the effort that you have to keep putting in… you just need to be there for friends, family, and work,” Salman added.

Salman’s imprisonment was linked to a controversial case involving the illegal hunting of blackbucks in 1998.
