According to reports, Salim is said to be the CEO of the renowned start-up company called Simpaisa. Reportedly, it facilitates merchants from different sectors in over 15 countries. Apart from that, he is claimed to be a professional DJ.
Mahira confirmed her relationship with Salim in 2020 during an Instagram live with Pakistani designer HSY. When the designer asked, "You are in love now, his name is Salim. When you look deep into his eyes, what is the first thing that comes to your mind?" The actress said she wasn't comfortable talking about her personal life. Instead, she recited a dialogue from her famous show, Humsafar, to explain her feelings. "There's a line in Humsafar, which I thought was beautiful, where Ashar says to Khirad, 'Pata nahi tum mujhe kis naiki kay badlay main miley ho (I don't know what I did right to deserve you.) I think the same about him," she shared.
She added, "I don't know what have I done in my life, [but I] must have done something good because of which Allah blessed me with."
Reportedly, in April 2019, Mahira and Salim got engaged in an intimate ceremony in Turkey. She was previously married to Ali Askari. They tied the knot in 2007 and got divorced in 2015. Their son Azlaan was born in 2009.
Mahira made her Bollywood debut with Raees opposite Shah Rukh Khan in 2017.
