Salman Khan Rushes Father Salim Khan to Hospital

Veteran screenwriter Salim Khan has been hospitalised in Mumbai after his health reportedly deteriorated. According to sources, the 90-year-old was admitted to Lilavati Hospital on Tuesday morning and is currently under observation in the ICU. Doctors are conducting medical tests to assess his condition, and the family is closely monitoring his recovery.

Actor Salman Khan was seen visiting the hospital to be by his father’s side. Though he avoided interacting with the media, his presence reassured fans. Salim Khan’s son-in-law Atul Agnihotri also arrived at the hospital shortly after, reflecting the family’s support during this time.

Salim Khan is regarded as one of Hindi cinema’s most influential writers, best known for classics like Sholay, Deewaar and Zanjeer. As part of the legendary Salim–Javed duo, he shaped the “angry young man” era of Bollywood, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire generations.

Sholay to Re-Release in 4K Uncut Version After 50 Years

Hindi cinema has seen many beloved films, but the 1975 classic Sholay remains unmatched in popularity. Its iconic songs, dialogues, scenes, and memorable characters have become a permanent part of Indian pop culture. Even after 50 years, the film continues to hold a special place in the audience’s hearts.

Director Ramesh Sippy has announced that Sholay: The Final Cut will be re-released in a 4K uncut version on December 12, 2025. This edition will include all the deleted scenes that were removed from the original 1975 release. The makers also shared a new poster on Instagram featuring glimpses of Thakur and Gabbar Singh, instantly creating buzz among fans.

The film’s strong performances—Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra as Jai-Veeru, Hema Malini’s charm, and Gabbar Singh’s fierce portrayal—are still remembered fondly. Fans are eagerly waiting for the film’s theatrical return and are flooding social media with queries about ticket sales and city-wise releases. Written by legendary writers Salim-Javed, Sholay is now ready to entertain a new generation on the big screen once again.
