Salman Khan is a well-known Bollywood star who has given many highly acclaimed performances over the course of his career.

In addition to being a great actor, Salman's hairstyle in 'Tere Naam' became very famous and was copied by his fans. In an interesting twist, his character went bald in the second part of the movie, which got everyone's attention like nothing else. Salman told the story of how he got this bald look when he was on the show 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa' in 2021.
During the show, Salman Khan said that he shaved his head on the spot because he was angry. He said, "Not many people know this, but there's a very interesting story behind how I look in 'Tere Naam.'" I was actually working on another movie when Sunil Manchanda, the producer of 'Tere Naam' and a good friend of mine, came up to me and recommended that I shave my head to fit the role. But I wasn't sure because I was already working on something else at the time."
Salman also told a story about a time when he was sick with a fever and the director of the other movie kept telling him to go to the set. He went into the bathroom on a whim and shaved his head because he was angry about the situation. The next day, he called Sunil Manchanda and told him about his choice. "I cut my hair and am ready to join 'Tere Naam,'" he said. Salman really wanted to play Radhe Mohan in the movie, even though many people around him told him not to.
This story shows how hard it was for Salman to decide whether or not to take the part in 'Tere Naam' and how determined he was to go through with it in the end. The movie, which came out in 2003, went on to be a big hit, and Salman's performance as Radhe Mohan was praised by both reviewers and audiences.
Salman Khan's desire to try new things with his looks and push the limits for the sake of his art shows how much he cares about acting. 'Tere Naam' is still a major turning point in his career, not just because it has a great story and great acting, but also because of the iconic effect of his bald look, which fans still remember to this day.
