Salman Khan's Childhood School Fee Struggles Revealed

Salman Khan's journey to his estimated Rs 3,000 crore net worth, as per the M3M Hurun India Rich List 2026, was preceded by family financial challenges. He recalled an incident from his childhood where he was removed from class due to unpaid school fees, a situation his father, Salim Khan, had to address. This challenging period extended to his father's early days in Mumbai during the 1960s, where he struggled financially as an aspiring actor.

Aamir Khan, who also briefly attended the same school, corroborated these financial struggles, mentioning public announcements during assembly for delayed fee payments. Salim Khan's early ambitions in Mumbai involved modest lodgings, and he eventually found success as a screenwriter alongside Javed Akhtar, creating iconic films. Salman's own acting career, which began with 'Biwi Ho To Aisi' in 1988, saw a major breakthrough with 'Maine Pyaar Kiya' in 1989, though he initially faced a work drought afterward.
