Arbaaz Khan Calls Out Reporter for Fixation on Salman Khan at Kaal Trighori Trailer

In the days leading up to the November 5th, 2025 trailer launch of his film Kaal Trighori, actor-producer Arbaaz Khan faced a familiar challenge - being overshadowed by the celebrity of his superstar brother, Salman Khan. During the trailer event, a reporter persistently brought up Salman's name instead of inquiring about the film, clearly frustrating Arbaaz.

Arbaaz directly called out the reporter, saying in Hindi that the questions could have been asked "without mentioning that name." His pointed remarks reflected Arbaaz's longstanding desire to carve out his own identity in Bollywood, rather than constantly being compared to or associated with his famous brother.

The incident was captured on camera and quickly went viral on social media, sparking discussions about Arbaaz's struggle for recognition. As he steps back into the limelight with Kaal Trighori, a film that marks his return as a lead actor and producer, Arbaaz seeks to establish himself beyond being known primarily as "Salman Khan's sibling." His response at the trailer launch communicated his demand for respect and focus on his own craft.
