He said that one should stay away from Salman during certain hours of the day, because he is guaranteed to ignore you. It is only in the evening that Salman opens up, and that, too, if music is involved. In an interview with Shubhankar Mishra, Mika recalled a hilarious anecdote about Salman rebuffing Meet Bros at the premiere of Race 3, even though they\u2019d chilled together only a few hours prior. Mika then let them in on his secret.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Salman Bhai raat ko kuch aur hote hain aur din ko kuch aur hote hain<\/em> (Salman Bhai is a different person at night, and a different person during the day),\u201d he said, adding, \u201c<a rel=\"noamphtml\" class=\"keywordtourl\" href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/about\/salman-khan\/\">Salman Khan<\/a> is very open with me. After two drinks, he treats me like an equal. But this shouldn\u2019t make you delusional, regardless if you\u2019re two pegs down or four pegs down. He\u2019s Salman Khan.

I should\u2019ve touched his feet and asked if I could sing a song for him. He was there on set for the shoot of \u2018Jaanam Samjha Karo\u2019, and he even had tea with us. But I didn\u2019t have the street smarts to get his contact details. He asked me to sing, and I sang with full moves. He must\u2019ve been thinking what a cartoon they\u2019ve presented before me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recalling the story about how Salman ignored Meet Bros at a movie premiere, he said, \u201cI\u2019ve never told this story, but Meet Bros once had biryani with him, and thought that they\u2019d become best friends. They don\u2019t know what I know. I know that Salman Bhai is cranky during the day, and that you should only approach him after 6 pm, preferably with a song. Between 2 pm and 6 pm, stay away from Salman Bhat. And so, Meet Bros had biryani with him at night, and the next day they went to the premiere of Race 3. They stood there eagerly, waiting for Salman Bhai. He came and walked past them. They were stunned that he didn\u2019t even say hello. They\u2019d just had biryani the night before! I told them that this isn\u2019t the time to approach him. You need to wait for the evening. It\u2019s not that he needs to have a few drinks to chill, but he just takes his time to get into the zone. During the day, he\u2019s lost in his thoughts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"subscriber_hide\" href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/subscribe\/upsc-special\/?utm_source=IESITE&amp;utm_medium=Banner&amp;utm_campaign=Inarticle\" title=\"Festive offer\" data-ie-event-category=\"Event_banner\" data-ie-event-action=\"Article\" data-ie-event-label=\"Desktop\"><img class=\"lazyloading\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\" data-lazy-type=\"lazyloading-image\" src=\"https:\/\/images.indianexpress.com\/2025\/04\/UPSC_banner_640x70.jpg\" alt=\"Festive offer\" width=\"640px\" height=\"99px\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mika said that Salman tends to call his friends up at odd hours of the night, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/entertainment\/bollywood\/mika-singh-removed-katrina-kaif-name-from-a-song-at-salman-khan-request-9747225\/\" class=\"\">gets upset with them if they don\u2019t answer<\/a><\/strong>. Mika was caught in a similar situation when he was in Bali. He said, \u201cSalman Bhai loves to sing. He also loves calling people up in the middle of the night, sometimes at 4 am. And he gets upset if you don\u2019t answer. I was in Bali, and I get a call from him at night. He tells me that he wants to sing the song \u2018Hangover\u2019, and he sang on the phone. I thought he sang very well. Then he sang \u2018Jumme Ki Raat\u2019, and I didn\u2019t have the heart to tell him\u2026 That was supposed to be my song, but obviously nobody was going to tell him that he couldn\u2019t sing it. So, I texted Bhushan Kumar and Sajid Nadiadwala, and I told them I knew what was happening\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script>\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n{if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\nif(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\nn.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\ns.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '444470064056909');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/entertainment\/bollywood\/salman-khan-drunk-mika-singh-stories-9978372\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Singer Mika Singh recalled several stories about Salman Khan, and said that he is one of the few people who know when to approach the superstar.
