A recent video of Salman Khan attending an event went viral on social media, leaving fans divided over his appearance.
Many users commented that the actor looked noticeably older compared to his earlier public appearances.
Some are even comparing his aging process to other actors from the 90s era.
Several social media users shared opinions about Salman’s current look, while others defended the superstar.
They pointed out that he is nearing 60 and aging naturally like everyone else.
Fans argued that expecting an actor to maintain the same appearance he had decades ago is unrealistic.
Some comments focused on lifestyle choices, such as discussions around fitness, smoking and drinking, while others criticised the harsh reactions and age-related trolling.
A few others went to the extent of bashing the actor for allegedly sharing edited images on social media and using VFX to look young and healthy in his films.
Given that Salman’s earlier film, Sikandar, couldn’t do well at the box office, he is surely trying to do his best for his upcoming projects.
However, this recent video of the actor aging further totally shows us a different picture.
Supporters also highlighted that Salman Khan has maintained a strong screen presence and physical fitness throughout his career despite being in the industry for more than three decades.
The debate also brought attention to the pressure faced by celebrities, especially actors known for their youthful image and action roles.
Many believe that social media often creates unrealistic expectations around aging, where stars are constantly compared to their younger selves.
