Mumbai: India’s still most eligible bachelor and superstar Salman Khan spoke his heart out in a recent interview; rarely do we hear him speaking about love and relationships.
Salman made some revelations about his first heartbreak in that interview.
He got nostalgic and said, “I was 16 and there was this girl I really liked, but I could never muster the courage to tell her that. I was scared she would say no. She dated two of my friends and it didn't work out (with either of them). She was a friend to me, but never liked me romantically. When others dated her, I was heartbroken. She never got to know of my feelings."
"She must have noticed (that I was in love with her), but she was not into me. I was bummed," added the actor.
He continued saying that she wasn’t the most beautiful girl but there was something nice about her.
The 51-year-old actor narrated the tale saying, “She had an erratic dog she couldn't control. That dog once bit me. I had barely raised my hand (at it) and she yelled at me. That was when I realised it's over. She doesn't like me, her dog doesn't like me and her family comes a lot later. I was sad for a few days and it felt like life was coming to an end. Today, I thank God. Till this day, I don't take her name. I am sure she is happy. I haven't seen her in 35 years."
The star has gone through several heartbreaks and relationships.
He admits, "Failure in personal relationships is the loveliest thing ever. You feel the pinch when you are 16 or 17. But if it doesn't work out, it's fine. Take your time; don't go for rebounds. Someone better always comes along. Don't let the pain of a break-up weigh you down. The angst and animosity is all going to die. Everyone is eventually going to be happy."
