Salman Khan brought his signature charm to the premiere of Koffee with Karan Season 9, where the Bollywood superstar didn’t shy away from the most personal questions. Sitting on the iconic couch, the Dabangg actor opened up about his life, his choice to remain unmarried, and his genuine desire to embrace fatherhood. When host Karan Johar probed him about his personal life, Salman remained remarkably composed, emphasizing that for him, his ultimate priority remains his family.
The conversation took a deeper turn when Karan Johar spoke about his own experiences with loneliness. While the filmmaker admitted that missing a partner often leaves him feeling isolated, Salman offered a different perspective. He reminded Karan that he is fortunate to have his children and mother by his side, noting that true loneliness is only felt when you have nobody who wants to be with you. Salman made it clear that his single status is a choice he is content with, stating, “Nobody stopped me from having a partner. I am happy with this.”
Addressing the topic of fatherhood, Salman confirmed that he is looking forward to the next chapter of his life. “Of course I will have children at some point in time,” he shared, adding that he was genuinely happy for Karan when he chose to become a father. The episode also featured heartfelt video messages from close friends Sanjay Dutt, Bobby Deol, and Varun Dhawan. Sanjay Dutt even added a dose of humor to the mix, jokingly urging Salman to finally have a “chota Salman” of his own.
The star-studded premiere was rounded out by a nostalgic guest appearance from Bollywood diva Karisma Kapoor, much to the delight of 90s fans. With plenty of candid revelations and emotional moments, the episode marks a high-energy start for the new season. Fans can catch the full conversation now that the episode is officially streaming on JioHotstar.
