Salman Khan Realizes Co-Star is Veteran Actress's Son After Seeing Old Photo
Imagine an actor named Ayaan is working on a new movie with a very famous movie star, Salman Khan.
Salman is super busy and doesn't realize that Ayaan's mom is an actress he knows from many years ago, named Kunickaa.
Ayaan works with Salman for a while, and Salman even helps him with his acting!
Then, one day, Ayaan shows Salman an old picture of them together when Ayaan was just a little kid.
Suddenly, Salman remembers!
He realizes Ayaan is Kunickaa's son.
He even calls Kunickaa, and it's the first time they've talked in 30 years!
It just goes to show how sometimes it takes a little reminder to remember old connections.
Salman Khan did not recognize his 'Sikandar' co-star Ayaan Lall as the son of actress Kunickaa Sadanand during filming.
Ayaan Lall, whose mother Kunickaa Sadanand previously starred with Salman Khan, worked with the star in his latest film.
Salman Khan only recognized Ayaan Lall after Ayaan showed him a childhood photograph of the two of them together.
The old photograph prompted Salman Khan to recall Kunickaa Sadanand, leading to a phone call between them.
This phone call marked the first time Salman Khan and Kunickaa Sadanand had spoken in thirty years.
