Salman Khan and Rajpal Yadav have worked together in many films and share a professional connection. Recently, Salman Khan showed his support for Rajpal Yadav after a moment from a public event became widely discussed online.
The incident took place during an award show in Mumbai. At the event, Rajpal Yadav spoke about global issues and changing economic conditions. In a video that later went viral, he said, “There are so many wars going on, so I keep wondering where to sit and where to think. The rupee and the dollar keep fluctuating so much that it becomes difficult to understand anything. So, I just sit quietly and keep saying ‘peace, peace.’”
During his speech, journalist Saurabh Dwivedi, who was hosting the event, interrupted him and made a remark. He said, “Rajpal bhai, no matter how much the dollar and rupee fluctuate, aapko utne hi paise lautane padenge jitne udhaar hain (You will still have to repay the same amount you owe).”
After hearing this, Rajpal Yadav stayed calm and replied with a smile, “Masla toh sunlo. Mai toh masla sunana chahta hun. (Just listen to the issue. I just want to share that).” The video of this exchange spread quickly on social media and received mixed reactions from viewers.
Rajpal bhai aap 30 yrs se kaam kar rahe ho aur hum sabne aapko repeat kiya hai baar baar kyunki aap apna kaam jante ho aur ek value laate ho , kaam toh aapko bohot milega aur issi dollar rate pe milega aur milte rahega . Hakikat yeh hai .

He wrote, “Rajpal bhai aap 30 yrs se kaam kar rahe ho aur hum sabne aapko repeat kiya hai baar baar kyunki aap apna kaam jante ho aur ek value laate ho, kaam toh aapko bohot milega aur issi dollar rate pe milega aur milte rahega. Hakikat yeh hai. (Rajpal brother, you have been working for the past 30 years, and all of us have worked with you on repeat because you know your work and bring value to the films. You will get a lot of work and at this Dollar rate).”
He also added, “Aur yeh yaad rakhna ke kabhi kabhi flow mai kuch nikal aata hai,dena hi hai toh dimag mai rakho dil se kaam karo, dollar upar ho ya neeche kya farak padta hai dena toh India mai hi hai @rajpalofficial. (And remember this, sometimes something comes out in flow. If you want to give back, keep it in your mind and work with your heart. It doesn’t matter if the dollar is low or high, you have to give it in India.)”
