Key sentence:

• A paparazzo account shared a video of the actor stepping out of his Panvel farmhouse for a special birthday photo-op.
• Salman Khan’s 56th birthday celebrations kicked off late Sunday night at his Panvel farmhouse with a party.
• They even performed an impromptu singing performance, crooning Mohammed Rafi’s Baar Baar Din Ye Aaye to wish him a happy birthday.

Salman Khan’s 56th birthday celebrations began late Sunday night with a party at his Panvel farmhouse. Salman was bitten by a snake on Saturday night and taken to the hospital for a few hours.

Salman arrived home in time for Sunday’s birthday celebrations. A paparazzo account shared a video of the actor stepping out of his Panvel farmhouse for a special birthday photo-op. When one of the camerapersons tells him, “Lovely smile,” he greets the paparazzi with an ear-to-ear grin. Salman responds jokingly, “Saanp kaatne ke baad aisa smile bahut difficult hota hai (After being bitten by a snake, smiling like this is difficult).”

The paparazzi stationed outside the farmhouse showered the actor with birthday greetings. They even performed an impromptu singing performance, crooning Mohammed Rafi’s Baar Baar Din Ye Aaye to wish him a happy birthday.

Salman revealed the details of the snake bite incident to news agency ANI recently, saying, “A snake had invaded my farmhouse, so I used a stick to drag it outside. It gradually reached out and grabbed my hand.

When I grabbed it to release it, it bit me three times. It was a poisonous snake of some sort. I was in the hospital for 6 hours… I’m all right now.”

Salman Khan’s father, Salim Khan, assured fans that his son had recovered on Sunday. “Salman is in good health. There’s nothing to be concerned about. It happened early morning, but he is now alright. 

It was a non-poisonous snake, and these creatures are common in forest areas. “The doctor prescribed a few medications, but he is otherwise fine,” he told News18.

Salman shares his birthday with Ayat Khan Sharma, the daughter of Arpita Khan Sharma and Aayush Sharma. The actor is seen cutting the birthday cake with Ayat in his arms in behind-the-scenes footage from the party. Iulia Vantur, Salman’s rumored girlfriend, was a brief glimpse in the video, attending the birthday celebrations.
