Superstar Salman Khan and Sangeeta Bijlani’s love story is one of the most discussed romances in Bollywood. Recently, Sangeeta expressed a desire to change one aspect of their relationship. In a recent appearance on Indian Idol 15, she revealed that Salman had reservations about her wearing short dresses.
When a contestant inquired if there was anything she wished to change about her career, Sangeeta responded in a way that hinted at her past with Salman, even though she did not directly mention his name. Notably, Vishal Dadlani playfully imitated Salman’s manner of speaking as he encouraged her to name the actor but Sangeeta chose to refrain from doing so.
Sangeeta Bijlani said, “Jo the na (mimics Salman) hamare ex, I was very constricted. Matlab kapde yeh nahi pehanna, itne short nahi hone chahiye. Itna long hona chahiye, voh gale main… I could not wear this kind of dress. Initially, I did but then I was not allowed to. So I was shy then, abhi main aisi nahi hoon. Abhi poori gundi hoon. I’m not afraid now, I was reserved then.”

Salman and Sangeeta’s romance began during the early stages of their careers when they met while filming a TV advertisement. They quickly became one of the most beloved couples of Bollywood, enjoying a relationship that lasted nearly a decade and was among Salman’s longest. Their love story seemed poised for a fairytale conclusion, with plans for marriage in the works.
However, their relationship faced challenges, leading to the cancellation of their wedding. Despite their romantic separation, they have managed to maintain a cordial and respectful friendship.
After their breakup, Sangeeta moved on and married cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin in 1996. Unfortunately, that marriage ended in divorce in 2019, after more than twenty years together. Throughout the years, Sangeeta and Salman have remained connected, with her frequently attending his events and gatherings, highlighting their enduring friendship.
In a past interview, Sangeeta reflected on her relationship with Salman and the importance of their bond. She stated that connections don’t break as the love between partners or school friends always remains the same. She added that people come and go in life but it doesn’t mean that a person should be angry as nothing is permanent.
The senior actress further said that there comes a time when a person evolves from being childish to being mature, adding that life is full of experiences.
Well, what is your take on this matter as here, Salman Khan is accused of controlling Sangeeta’s life when they were in a relationship?
