Bihari who wanted to conduct a screen test for him. He said “He came and discussed things with me and I agreed. He was surprised. He didn’t mention his father’s name. If he had done that I may not have cast him. Being the son of established writer Salim Khan Salman never used that leverage and his humility and willingness to start from the bottom left an indelible mark on J.K. Bihari.
