Aafiya Sayed called Salman Khan ‘the og prem’ — and not just because of the film title. On Bigg Boss 20’s Weekend Ka Vaar, the debutant actress didn’t just share screen time with the superstar. She walked away with a memory that rewired her idea of stardom. In a post-show social media note, Aafiya described the moment as life-altering: ‘the kindness, the humility & the sheer childlike joy you bring to our screens.’ She wasn’t talking about a public figure.
She was talking about someone who showed up, not for clout, but for the new kids on the block. The video she shared shows Salman Khan greeting her and co-star Veer Pahariya with warmth, a rare gesture from a man whose name still opens doors in Bollywood. The throwback photo?
A young Aafiya, maybe eight or nine, standing beside him at an event. Now, years later, she’s stepping into the same frame. This time, as a lead. Her film, Prem Keetanu, released October 2, 2026, under Avanika Films, produced by Gaurav Verma.
