Star Interview: Am Open To 'Arranged Marriage' With Any 'Indian Intelligent Girl': Superstar Salman Khan

By Nishi Khan in Mumbai
He is irreverent and witty with a wry sense of humour. Just when you think he is seriously giving you an answer, he will crack a joke and take you unawares. He confesses the reality of his age, family, personal life and loneliness. Whether it is his film Sultan clashing with Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees (which he feels is the best thing to happen), or reuniting with Sooraj Barjatya (he confesses it was difficult), Bollywood Super star, Dabanng actor Salman Khan tells it like it is. 

In this freewheeling interview to INNLIVE, the superstar talks about everything from his upcoming Bajrangi Bhaijaan to his views on arranged marriage and many more interesting things of his life and activities. Excerpts:

Telangana's 'Mission Kakatiya' Experiencing Irregularities

The India's 29th new state Telangana's prestigious populist program 'Mission Kakatiya' is now heading towards sheer irregularities. The government is not able to control the encroachment of lakes before it is saved or commissioned as per the 'Mission Kakatiya' program.

If you think lakes in the city would be full to the brim this monsoon after the desiltation work carried out under Mission Kakatiya in Telangana state, think again ­ especially in the case of water bodies under the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) limits.

Take for instance, the fate of the 17acre Shetti Kunta Lake in Ameenpur gram panchayat (survey no. 947) in Patancheru mandal of Medak district in Telangana. Instead of a scenic water body, seen the concrete jungle.

Meet The Fastest Disappearing Community In India - 'Siddhis' Of Indians And Pakistanis Of African Origin

By Swara Bose 
Group Special Correspondent
When people think of Africans in Indian history, Malik Ambar tends to be the first name to come to mind. Brought to Ahmadnagar as a warrior-slave in the 16th century, he rose to be the general of the Deccan sultanate’s army—and eventually its regent.


Yet, Ambar was only the most successful of thousands of Africans brought to India by Arab and Portuguese slavers across the Arabian Sea. Thousands of others came as mercenaries and merchants. Today, the Sidis—as people of African origin living in India for centuries call themselves—are a fast disappearing community. Separated by appearance, if not by culture, they are largely misunderstood.

EComm Fuels Entrepreneurs To Turn Dreams Into Reality

As she walked out of her college alumni meet brimming with nostalgic thoughts about her amazing years at B-School, she wondered how great it would be to have a simple keepsake to help her connect with this feeling forever. A t-shirt or a hoodie came to her mind. So she went to someone who created such apparel, but the poor quality on offer appalled her. The vendor didn't care about quality since promotional material is usually about meeting a low cost target.

But this lady was made of stronger stuff. She decided that if high quality products for such purposes weren't available, she would become an entrepreneur, build a team and create such apparel. Extensive research and much hard work later, Campus Sutra was born.
