Bollywood star Salman Khan surprised many when it was revealed that he only charged one rupee as his fee for the 2004 movie Phir Milenge. This detail was shared by the film’s producer, Shailendra Singh.
In a recent interview, Singh explained that Salman agreed to do the film because he deeply believed in its message and wanted to support the important cause it highlighted. Phir Milenge was a unique film at the time, addressing the stigma around HIV/AIDS, a topic rarely discussed in Indian cinema back then.
Salman’s decision to accept such a small amount as payment reflects his commitment to the project and his desire to use his platform for a meaningful cause. His role in the film was widely appreciated, and this gesture shows his willingness to step beyond commercial success to focus on impactful storytelling.
This story has only added to Salman’s reputation as a generous and thoughtful actor in the Bollywood industry.
