A fan sums Salman’s journey
One of his fan, an Indian sand artist who raised the bar with his mind-blowing tribute to the actor’s 50 years of excellence. In his three and a half-minute video titled 50 years of Salman Khan in 200 seconds, he pays ode to the actor by drawing some of the actor’s groundbreaking achievements with sand!
Right from his birth on 27 December 1965 to his Bollywood career and humanitarian acts, the artist creates some breathtaking illustrations while Salman’s voice notes play in the background.
Directed by Rahul Arya, the video makes use of iconic scenes from his blockbusters including Maine Pyaar Kiya, Karan Arjun, Hum Aapke Hain Kon, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and his latest hit Bajrangi Bhaijaan among others.
It also sheds light on his philanthropic efforts where he has helped millions with his charity organisation Being Human and lent a helping hand to many Bollywood new comers.
Despite facing critical health issues, Salman continued to entertain us for years and that makes him one of the biggest stars in the history of Bollywood.
