Aayush Sharma Apologized To Salman Khan Post Loveyatri's Failure: 'I Had Tears In My Eyes'

Aayush Sharma is currently preparing for his upcoming action-thriller ‘Ruslaan.’ Despite facing criticism and trolling accusing him of marrying Arpita Khan for money and fame, Aayush addressed these rumors in an interview with Siddharth Kannan on his YouTube channel.

During the conversation, Aayush shared that social media has falsely framed his marriage to Arpita as a financial move and alleged that he used it to break into Bollywood. He disclosed, “People don’t know that when I got married I told Salman Khan that I don’t want to pursue acting. I told him ‘Trust me, I gave 300 auditions and couldn’t even crack two, I can’t do it.’ Salman said ‘Son your training is not good, I’ll train you.’ ”

Dispelling notions of misusing his brother-in-law’s wealth, Aayush challenged, “The narrative was created that I am blowing up my brother-in-law’s money. Should I share my income tax details? When Salman called me during Loveyatri, I had tears in my eyes. I said ‘Sorry, I blew up your money.’ When Antim’s digital rights were sold to satellite and OTT platforms, I was relieved.”

Salman frequently praises Aayush, showing support for his endeavors. He recently commended the ‘Ruslaan’ trailer on Instagram, emphasizing the effort and dedication evident in the movie while encouraging Aayush to persevere. The film is set to hit theaters on April 26, 2024. Salman Khan wrote, “Aayush, can see the hard work, effort n dedication put into Ruslaan, no matter what just keep giving it your best. Hard work will always pay off. God bless and wish u all the best. Roaring in cinemas on 26th April, 2024. #RuslaanTrailer”

Aayush, wed to Arpita Khan, hails from a political background with his father, Anil Sharma, associated with the BJP, and his grandfather, Pandit Sukh Ram, a veteran Congress figure.

Directed by Karan Butani, ‘Ruslaan’ also stars Sushrii Shreya Mishraa, Jagapathi Babu, and Vidya Malvade in significant roles. Aayush’s most recent appearance was in ‘Antim: The Final Truth,’ alongside Mahima Makwana and Jisshu Sengupta in pivotal roles.
