was
initially
scared
to
inform
Salman
Khan
but
later
went
and
informed
the
entire
family
about
his
relationship
with
Arpita
Khan.
Salman’s
Support
Though

was
taken
aback
initially,
he
supported
their

and
had
always
taken
his
side
in
the
relationship.
Relationship

been
in.
Break
Up
With
Arpita
He
said,
"I
was
140
kgs,
was
assisting
Nikhil
advani
in
Salaam-E-Ishq,
had
girlfriend,
would
party
and
felt
my
life
is
headed
in
the
right
direction
and
thought
would
direct
my
first
film
by
22,
till
she
broke
up
with

I
was
confused
about
my

break
up,
Arjun
turned
to
Salman
Khan
for
help.
He
said,
"Even
after
breaking
up
I
would
hangout
with
Salman.
He
was
my
friend,
my
father-figure,
older
brother,
everything
at
that
point."
Arjun’s
First
Meet
With
Salman
Arjun
first
met
Salman
when
he
was

Entry
movie.
He
was
in
charge
of
sorting
tickets
and
travel
arrangements
for
Salman
and
Bipasha.
He
said,
"I
would
hang
out
with
Salman
Khan
all
the
time
at
Galaxy.
He
was
the
one
who
probed
me
to
become
an
actor
and
lose
weight."
Salman
Made
Arjun
An
Actor
He
added,
"It
took
Salman
four
years
to
embed
in
me
how
to
become
a
professional
actor.
When
I
met
casting
director
of
Ishaqzaade,
Shanoo
Sharma,
she
said
I
looked
like
shit
even
though
I
had
come
down
to
97
kilos.
Mom’s
Last
Call
To
Salman
When
he
informed
his
mom
about
the
debut,
she
started
crying.
Sadly
she
passed
soon
after
that.
He
said,
"The
last
call
my
mother
made
from
the
hospital
bed
was
to
Salman
Bhai.
She
knew
about
her
condition
by
then.
She
thanked
him
for
making
me
an
actor.
He
told
her
he
would
take
her
abroad
but
within
a
week
she
passed
away.
He
came
to
the
funeral.
Till
he
had
come,
the
media
was
standing
almost
on
top
of
the
pyre.
But
he
came
and
ensured
I
got
some
space
privacy.
When
he
came
home
that
day,
it
was
the
tightest
hug
I
have
ever
given
him."
