Nikkhil Advani : ‘The whole set was quiet’
Nikkhil Advani recently shared an amusing anecdote from the first day of shooting the 2007 film Salaam-E-Ishq. As the director was setting up the very first shot, he accidentally addressed Salman Khan as Shah Rukh Khan. The mistake led to an awkward silence on the set as everyone was unsure how Salman would react.
However, Salman, known for his wit and laid-back attitude, responded with a light-hearted remark, diffusing the tension. Advani recalled that this blunder became a memorable moment for the team, and fortunately, Salman took it in stride, making the atmosphere on set much more relaxed from then on.
Nikkhil Advani’s slip-up on the first day of Salaam-E-Ishq became an unforgettable moment. The entire crew was holding their breath, anticipating Salman Khan’s reaction.
Instead of being upset, Salman’s humorous comeback instantly lightened the mood, setting a positive tone for the rest of the shoot. Advani reflected that such incidents, while nerve-wracking at the moment, often bring the team closer, creating an environment of camaraderie and mutual respect.
