Salman Khan on friendships: “I take a lot of time in becoming friends”

Salman Khan recently spoke out about failed friendships and his tendency to get angry.

The star made the comments at a virtual launch event for Deanne Pandey’s new book, reports Hindustan Times. He said that most of his friends he has known for many decades, and that those are the people he shares the strongest bond with. And despite making new friends in recent years, the equation is rarely as strong. He said, “I take a lot of time in becoming friends, so all the friends that I’ve had have been 20-30 years old. And all the new people who keep coming in, they’re there, but they’re not as close as the four-five friends that I’ve had.”

He continued, “So when you get to know… First everyone’s really cool, and then you get to know each other’s faults. If you’re okay with their faults then you’re fine. Because their qualities are a thousand times more than what they’re weakness are. If you’re okay with the weaknesses, you’re okay with them, but if you’re not okay with the weaknesses, and some friends aren’t as strong, then you don’t need that relationship.”

Khan also spoke about the difference between anger and temper. He said, “I have anger, which is needed. Anger is not bad, if you want to take a stand you should have anger. I don’t have a temper and that’s not good. We get upset about small things like if someone is late, or if the shoot didn’t start on time. I tell people, look around and see how privileged we are, we should just be grateful for what all we have.”

Khan will next be seen in ‘Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai’ next. And he is currently hosting the 14th season of ‘Bigg Boss.’
