Bollywood superstar Salman Khan engaged in a conversation over video call with veteran actor Kabir Bedi about the latter's autobiography, "Stories I Must Tell". "I have shared a lot of the glories that I have seen but I have also told of the mistakes that I have made and I hope everyone can learn from that," said Bedi, about his book.
Salman replied, speaking in Hindi and English: "That is the most difficult thing... to own the mistakes that one has done. Everyone denies that. I am one of those persons sitting right in front of you. I always said, 'I haven't done this'. But if you have said that 'yes, I've done this mistake and I've tried to rectify it this way', that takes a lot of courage."
"There are times when I have made mistakes. I have come and said sorry. Mistakes do happen but then repeating the same mistakes again is not okay," he added. Talking about why honesty is important while penning a book, Salman said: "When you write a book, the most courageous thing is to go look deep inside your soul. When you are writing, whether I should write this or not... And then you say, to hell with it, I am just going to be honest with myself and honest to everyone, and I am going to write the honest truth what all has happened with me."
Replying to Salman, Bedi said: "That's the journey that I had to go through. And I have explored many things in this book -- career, successes, triumphs, failures, love relationships..."
Interrupting him with a smile, Salman said: "Now this is something that I should learn from you sir!"
Sharing the video clip on his Instagram, Kabir Bedi wrote: "Salman Khan and I talk about what it took to tell the story of my life honestly, and how I wrote my book in the pandemic. #StoriesIMustTell seems to have touched many of you and that's a great gift for a debut author. I thank you ALL for your love and appreciation. Thank you @beingsalmankhan."
