The two iconic stars were spotted at the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations in Mumbai on August 28, 2024. Salman and Sonali, who played Prem and Preeti in the 1999 blockbuster, shared warm moments that brought back memories of their on-screen chemistry. The duo posed with Ganpati Bappa and exchanged a heartfelt hug, sparking buzz among fans and the film industry alike.

Salman Khan looked stylish in a light blue t-shirt paired with blue denim jeans, while Sonali Bendre dazzled in a white suit adorned with floral prints.

In another video, Salman delighted the crowd by dancing to his hit song "Jalwa" from Wanted. Netizens were quick to react, showering the duo with love and hoping for their on-screen comeback.

On the professional front, Salman Khan is currently working on the film Sikandar, directed by AR Murugadoss. The movie, which also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Prateik Babbar, is set to be an action-packed drama with a significant social message. The film is slated for an Eid 2025 release, and excitement is building among fans.

Salman kicked off a 45-day marathon schedule for Sikandar in Mumbai on August 26, 2024. According to sources, Sajid Nadiadwala and the production team have constructed an elaborate set in a Mumbai studio, replicating various local areas of the city. The set took over three months to create, with a significant budget allocated to ensure authenticity. This set will be pivotal for both action-packed and emotional scenes in the film.

After the Mumbai schedule, the Sikandar team plans to shoot at an Indian palace for 15 to 20 days in November. The chosen palace will add to the film’s grandeur. Salman’s character in the film, Sikandar, is described as having elements of arrogance and royal demeanor, promising an intense and engaging performance. Fans are eagerly awaiting Salman’s "bad boy" avatar, reminiscent of his role in Sultan, and are excited to see what he brings to the screen in Sikandar on Eid 2025.
