At a recent event, Salma Khan told a leading news agency, "My dad wanted me to play cricket. That could have happened easily but I just didn't see myself going for cricket practice at 5:30 in the morning. This life is as it is difficult for me, cricket would have been very difficult.''

Salman Khan further added, "Salim Durani was hired to be my coach. First day, he saw me play, I played very well. Second day, I did really well so he called my father the third day and said, 'Your son has got a very bright future.' That is the day I realised, my father came to see me play, so I played really badly.''

"Reaching school used to be a big problem itself. At 9 am I used to attend my first lecture. So I used to wake up at about 8.30 AM and barely manage to reach school on time. Now before school, it was this. I actually wanted to be a director," said Salman.
