Somy Ali, who had a past relationship with Salman Khan, recently shared insights into the reasons behind the tumultuous history of Salman and Sangeeta Bijlani’s engagement. It turns out that Somy Ali played a significant role in the end of their engagement.
During an interview with Shubhankar Mishra, Somy disclosed, “The wedding cards were printed, but Sangeeta caught Salman red-handed in my apartment. What Salman did to Sangeeta, the same happened to me. This is called karma; when I grew up a little, I understood about it.”
Salman and Sangeeta started dating in 1986. The two were in a serious relationship for eight years before they decided to tie the knot. They organised an engagement ceremony in 1994 and were about to get hitched. However, just a few days before the wedding, they called it off.
During his appearance on Koffee With Karan, Salman had spoken about almost marrying Sangeeta. “There was a time that I really wanted to get married and then it just didn’t work out. I have always come so close. People have got cold feet. ‘Theek hai, boyfriend, isko zindagi bhar jhelna padega kya (They think I am a good boyfriend but it’s difficult to tolerate me for the rest of their lives).’ With Sangeeta, even the cards and all were printed,” he said.
