Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has left fans stunned after revealing the real reason behind his decision to remain unmarried — and it’s far more serious than anyone expected.
In a candid appearance on The Great Indian Kapil Show, the "Dabangg" actor opened up about battling multiple life-threatening conditions. When host Kapil Sharma brought up the long-standing question about his marriage, Salman’s response was both emotional and shocking.
"We break bones every day, my ribs are already fractured. I’m working despite trigeminal neuralgia, I have a brain aneurysm, and I’m also suffering from AV malformation. Yet, I keep moving forward," he revealed, with his trademark grit.
These aren’t just medical terms — they are critical health concerns that could affect anyone’s physical and emotional wellbeing. Trigeminal neuralgia, often dubbed the “suicide disease,” causes sudden, severe facial pain that can be unbearable. It’s a chronic nerve condition that has been linked to mental distress due to its intensity.
Salman Khan’s second diagnosis, a brain aneurysm, is equally alarming. It’s a dangerous bulge in a blood vessel in the brain that can rupture without warning, leading to internal bleeding or even a fatal stroke. And AV malformation (arteriovenous malformation), the third condition he mentioned, is a rare disorder where blood vessels in the brain or spine are abnormally tangled, disrupting normal blood flow and increasing the risk of seizures or brain damage.
Despite facing these serious illnesses, the 58-year-old icon continues to perform his own stunts and work tirelessly in films, never letting his health battles slow him down. Fans, however, are now expressing deep concern online, flooding social media with prayers and support for their beloved star.
The revelation has reignited the conversation around Salman Khan serious illness and the intense pressures public figures often carry in silence. While marriage may not be on the cards for the megastar, his unmatched courage in the face of adversity is winning hearts all over again.
