Salman Khan Celebrates 60th Birthday: Star-Studded Gala at Panvel Farmhouse

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, popularly known as “Bhaijaan,” has stepped into his 60th year. On Saturday (December 27), the atmosphere of Mumbai was filled with festive cheer to mark his milestone birthday. From the Bandra-Worli Sea Link to his Panvel farmhouse, the city was aglow with celebrations.

Beyond the metrics of popularity and box-office hits, Salman Khan has become an emotion for generations. From the romantic lead in Maine Pyar Kiya to the iconic Chulbul Pandey in Dabangg or the heart-wrenching Bajrangi Bhaijaan, he has built a deep connection with his audience through every character.

Star-Studded Gathering at Panvel The main birthday event took place at Salman’s Panvel farmhouse. While it was intended as an intimate family gathering, it turned into a star-studded gala. Luminaries from the worlds of sports and entertainment arrived to wish the superstar.

The Guest List Former Indian cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni attended with his wife Sakshi and daughter Ziva. Actress Tabu, who is rarely seen at parties, made a special appearance for Salman. Other notable guests included Sanjay Dutt, Randeep Hooda, Aditya Roy Kapur, Rakul Preet Singh, Genelia D’Souza, and Huma Qureshi. Even Shah Rukh Khan reportedly made a brief appearance in the early hours to wish his long-time friend.

Mumbai Lights Up The iconic Bandra-Worli Sea Link was specially illuminated to honor Salman’s 60th birthday. Colorful lights projected Salman’s image on one side, while the other side displayed “Happy Birthday Bhai.” Across Mumbai and other parts of India, fans celebrated by cutting cakes in honor of their favorite hero.

Look and Interaction Currently busy shooting for his upcoming film Battle of Galwan, Salman sported a clean-shaven look for the night. He was seen in his signature style—a black T-shirt, blue denim, and his famous turquoise stone bracelet. He stepped out of his farmhouse to cut a cake with the paparazzi and shared his joy with the media.

Career and Family Born in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, in 1965, Salman grew up in Mumbai. Son of legendary screenwriter Salim Khan, Salman debuted in 1988 with Biwi Ho To Aisi. However, it was Maine Pyar Kiya the following year that catapulted him to superstardom. Over his long career, his family has remained his greatest pillar of strength through every triumph and controversy.
