Maniesh Paul OPENS UP on Salman Khan!

Salman Khan. Now, the name says it all. He is nothing short of a messiah for the people he dearly cares about. The latest addition to the list is Maniesh Paul, who has just released his new single, Harjai, alongside Bhaijaan’s rumored girlfriend, Iulia Vantur.

Now, Maniesh has some really interesting details to share about how his association with Bhai came to be.

Speaking about how Salman kick-started Maniesh’s musical career, he said, “I used to sing during my school and college, but I never pursue it professionally. I just remember, one day I had gone to Bigg Boss to promote a film. Bhaijaan (Salman) was there and we were having a general chat and I told him that I am doing so much, but I am not getting any opening acts, we should do something like that. So he told me to do the opening act for the Da-Bangg tour. He said that you are already hosting the show, then why don’t you do the first act. He also told me to make the song for the act and sing it. So from there the singing thing started for me. In the Da-Bangg tour that we go for, the opening act is always mine and the song to which I dance is always in my voice. So that’s how it started!

Speaking about whether Salman was himself involved in the making, he said, No yaar! Do you think Salman Khan will have time? He does so much work, you have no idea. In fact, I ask Bhaijaan when does he sleep? He’s always working and in that also, I don’t remember a single day when he has missed my call. He has always responded and even if he has been busy, he will call back. He has always supported me and he is always there to help. He’s a superhuman. The biggest help was the germ of singing that he instilled upon me and now the video is ready.

Speaking about what was Salman’s first reaction to the song, he said, “He has already seen it and he was very happy. It was his idea, not to let me do comedy in the song. He said I do a lot of comedy, but in this song you are a hero, so don’t do comedy. That advice made a difference and I was very happy with the output and he also liked it.”
