Prahlad Kakkar recently opened up about Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai’s infamous love affair and breakup. Living in the same building, Kakkar says he witnessed everything firsthand.
Salman’s obsessive behaviour
In conversation with Vickey Lalwani, the ad-filmmaker talked about Salman’s obsession with Aishwarya. He shared, “He had been very physical with her and obsessive. How do you deal with somebody like that?”
Scenes and drama at home
He further added, “I knew because I was living in the same building. He used to make scenes in the foyer, would bang his head on the wall. The relationship had ended long before it officially ended. It was a relief for everyone, her parents, her, the whole world.”
Impact on Aishwarya’s emotional health and career
In the same interview, Prahlad also recalled how the breakup took a toll on Aishwarya’s emotional health and profession. He added, “She wasn’t upset about the breakup. She was upset that everybody took Salman’s side and not hers. The truth was on her side. She didn’t trust the industry anymore because it wasn’t playing fair. I could understand if she was wrong and the other party was right, or if both sides were treated equally. But nothing, it was completely one-sided.”
Love story and life after the breakup
According to reports, love blossomed between Aishwarya Rai and Salman Khan after their 1999 film Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. They parted ways in 2002. While Aishwarya is now happily married to Abhishek Bachchan, Salman has chosen to remain single.
