Salman Khan shares a very deep and strong bond with his sister Arpita Khan Sharma. The duo regularly shares pictures of each other on their social media and are also regularly spotted together. Last year, during the coronavirus lockdown, Arpita along with her husband Aayush Sharma was staying with the superstar at his farmhouse in Panvel.
Recently, Arpita took a walk down memory lane and shared throwback pictures from her wedding. In the picture, Arpita and Salman can be seen happily posing for the cameras. While Arpita looked gorgeous in her white lehenga, Salman was sporting only a towel over his waist. She captioned the picture, "Fond Memories @beingsalmankhan #majorthrowback #weddingmadness #brotherlove #gratitude #blessed #thankful (sic)". Take a look:
Arpita Khan married Aayush Sharma on November 18, 2014. The wedding was attended by several Bollywood celebrities. Arpita and Aayush welcomed their first child Ahil Sharma on March 30, 2016. In 2019, Arpita gave birth to a baby girl whom they named Ayat. Talking about Aayush, the actor made his Bollywood debut in 2018 with Loveyatri. He will be next seen in Salman Khan's Antim: The Final Truth.
On the other hand, Salman Khan is all set to resume shooting for Pathan, starring Shah Rukh Khan. Billed as an action-thriller and produced by Yash Raj Films (YRF), Pathan is being helmed by War director Siddharth Anand and marks Shah Rukh Khan's first film after 2018's Zero, in which Salman Khan also had a cameo. There were reports that Pathan will have an extended cameo of Salman Khan. While Pathan went on floors in November last year, the third installment of Tiger franchise is gearing up to start production next month.
Meanwhile, the yet-to-be-titled Tiger 3 is the next chapter in the action-thriller franchise, also backed by YRF, will see Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif reprise their roles as spy agents Tiger and Zoya. The film will also star Emraan Hashmi as the antagonist, a source close to the film's production told PTI earlier this week. Ek Tha Tiger (2012), the first movie in the franchise, chronicled the story of an Indian spy code-named Tiger (Khan), who falls in love with a Pakistani spy (Kaif) during an investigation.
While Ek Tha Tiger was helmed by Kabir Khan, the second film, which released in 2017, was directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. Maneesh Sharma of Fan and Band Baaja Baaraat fame will be directing the third installment of Tiger. On the other hand, Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali is written and produced by filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala. Housefull 4 helmer Farhad Samjhi will be directing the film.
