Just like every year, Salman Khan on the occasion of his 55th birthday saw the presence of his family at the celebration that took place at his Panvel farmhouse. However, the absence of close friends was felt due to the coronavirus pandemic. The celebration will be muted due to the pandemic and the actor urged fans to follow Covid-19 norms. "This time we will not have any birthday celebrations. Only our family will be here (Panvel) and no one else. This year we are not planning to do anything because this has been a terrible year for everybody, and people have faced a lot of difficulties," said Salman.
"Hopefully, next year everything will go back to normal. I hope that everyone is happy, healthy and safe," the actor said. For those wondering, if the superstar made any special announcement, yes he did! Sharing deets about the release of his upcoming film 'Radhe Your Most Wanted Bhai,' Bhaijaan said, "It will be released at an appropriate time when everything will go back to normal.
