Backstage, we were discussing it, and Salman came and asked us, ‘What happened? What are you guys discussing?’ We told him, ‘Yaar, ab tak paise nahi mile hain (Friend, I haven’t gotten the money till now),’ and Salman, who had already received his payment, called the organiser and asked them to clear our payments, or else he would not go on stage. “Salman Khan’s guidance on marriageEarlier, talking to Pinkvilla, Sheeba spoke about how Salman guided her through one of the biggest decisions of her life.
