Further on, in the same chat, the Son Of Sardaar actor shared that Khan’s father Salim Khan used to give him money every day. “He would hand over the money to Salman’s helper Nadeem. What expenses does Salman have, after all? So, whatever his father gave him, be it Rs 50,000 or Rs 1 lakh, he would donate it to the poor. And the blessings of such acts are with him even today,” he said.
According to Vindu, Salman still runs on the pocket money his father gives his helper every day. “Salman has a blank card. He never has money because he doesn’t need it. Now, instead of Nadeem, whom Salman appointed as the head of some other company, another guy handles the money he gets. I can’t even imagine how many poor people he has helped with this money. The Being Human organization came much later, but he has always been like this, very helping,” he stated.
