Salman Khan is the Bhai of Bollywood both on-screen as well as off-screen and the superstar is known to have a helping nature. Salman is the quintessential Godfather to many newbies for he has given them their big breaks. While some took the opportunity and made the most, some failed. But Salman is known to back them through thick and thin. Today we woke up to the news that Salman will be launching another fresh face, this time from his camp itself. Salman is now getting behind his loyal bodyguard Shera’s son Tiger. Not coming as a surprise to us, we now take a look at all the newcomers Bhai launched in Bollywood.
Tiger
We may be seeing a new Tiger in tinsel town after Salman just announced he is currently looking at scripts for his bodyguard Shera’s son who is family to Bhai. Salman has confirmed the news to multiple tabloids.
Zaheer Iqbal- Pranutan Bahl
Salman has been in the forefront for all promotions for the film Notebook where Zaheer Iqbal and Pranutan Bahl are making their Bollywood entry with a Salman Khan production. The movie released today (March 29). Zaheer Iqbal is Salman’s best friend Iqbal’s son and even shared a throwback picture recently.
Aayush Sharma- Warina Hussain
Three years after he married Salman Khan’s sister Arpita Khan Sharma, Aayush Sharma was paired with fresh-faced beauty Warina Hussain in Love Yatri. Salman launched the pair in 2018. However, the movie received a very lukewarm response.

Sooraj Pancholi- Athiya Shetty
Often considered Salman’s protégé, Salman took Sooraj Pancholi under his wing and also launched him in his production Hero opposite then newbie Athiya Shetty. Sooraj is Aditya Pancholi’s son and Athiya is the daughter of actor Suniel Shetty. The movie bombed at the box office.

Sooraj Pancholi- Isabelle Kaif
Katrina’s kid sister Isabelle who is been spotted at most events these days with her sister is reportedly being launched by Salman in a movie produced by Bhushan Kumar. After Sooraj Pancholi’s last film didn’t get him anywhere reports suggesting that Salman had recommended this pairing to Bhushan Kumar and he agreed.. hmm interesting.

Zarine Khan
Touted as the Katrina Kaif look-alike, Salman gave Zareen Khan a massive break in his film Veer. Zareen Khan, however, didn’t really come through as they were hoping.
Sneha Ullal
Post his break-up with lady love Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Salman thought he found another diamond. Hence he launched Aish lookalike Sneha Ullal and the two came in the film Lucky-No Time for Love. Apart from her uncanny resemblance with Aish nothing else really matched up to the hype. Salman got Sneha in another film opposite brother Sohail Khan, titled Aryan, but that was the final straw and we haven’t seen her since.
Let us see after Tiger, who is Salman’s next pick. If you have any guesses tell us in the comment section below. Keep following Cineblitz for the latest in news and gossip from Bollywood
