The conversation became more personal when Johar discussed feeling lonely without a partner and asked whether Salman shared that experience. Salman challenged the idea, pointing out that Johar had his mother and two children. He suggested that loneliness was not simply about being without a romantic partner. The actor also expressed happiness when Johar became a father, highlighting the joy children can bring to a family.
During the episode, Salman also criticised photographers who capture actresses from uncomfortable or inappropriate angles without their consent. He distinguished between celebrities who deliberately arrange public appearances for promotional purposes and those who prefer privacy. The actor particularly objected to social media posts asking viewers to identify celebrities through photographs taken from behind. Johar agreed that such challenges were ridiculous, while Salman jokingly blamed camera phones for making celebrities’ lives more difficult.
