Salman Khan has shared an unusual story about his family home at Mumbai’s Galaxy Apartments, revealing that he often sensed an unseen presence in his room. The actor opened up about the experience during the premiere episode of Koffee With Karan Season 9, leaving host Karan Johar curious about the strange incidents he described.
According to Salman, the room had a peculiar atmosphere. He recalled lights switching on and off, cupboards opening unexpectedly and music playing without anyone apparently turning it on. Despite these experiences, the Bollywood superstar said he was never particularly frightened.
Salman Khan Says He Never Stayed Alone in the Room
The conversation began when Karan Johar recalled visiting Salman’s home while narrating the script of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Karan remembered that the Khan family, including Salim Khan, Salma Khan, Arbaaz Khan and Sohail Khan, lived together in the apartment.
Karan was particularly surprised by the size of Salman’s room, which had only a bed and a cupboard. Recalling his reaction, he said, “The family stayed together. There was Arbaaz, Sohail, Salman, Salma aunty, Salim uncle, everyone. You had the tiniest room. You had one closet, one cupboard and one bed. I was shocked because I was like, ‘Yeh Salman Khan ka kamra hai?’”
Salman then interrupted with a revelation that changed the direction of the conversation. He explained that he never felt completely alone in the room because he believed there was something or someone whose presence he could sense, although he had never actually seen it.
“You know, that room, I never stayed there alone. I stayed there with somebody jisko maine kabhi dekha hi nahi hai, sirf suna hai, sirf mehsoos kiya hai peeche,” Salman said, describing how he had heard or sensed something behind him.
Lights, Cupboards and Music That Seemed to Operate on Their Own
Salman went on to describe the unexplained incidents that, according to him, occurred in the room. He said the lights would switch on and off, cupboards would open and the music system would sometimes start playing without an apparent explanation.
The actor also recalled feeling a presence outside the bathroom while hearing what seemed to be someone opening or moving around a cupboard. These experiences eventually convinced him that something unusual was happening, even though he could not identify its source.
When Karan asked about the possibility of the room being haunted, Salman clarified that he was talking about a presence he could feel rather than claiming to have seen a ghost. His account was based on his own recollection of the incidents, and no independent explanation for them was established during the conversation.
Salman Khan Says the Experience Never Scared Him
Despite describing what many might consider unsettling experiences, Salman maintained that he was not afraid. He recalled that whenever he played music, he felt as though the presence was behind him.
Rather than reacting with panic, the actor said he would sometimes ask what music it wanted to hear, press a button on the music system and leave the room. His matter-of-fact response added a humorous element to an otherwise eerie anecdote.
Salman’s story became one of the memorable personal revelations from his conversation with Karan. The anecdote also offered a glimpse into the actor’s life at Galaxy Apartments, where he grew up alongside his family before becoming one of Hindi cinema’s biggest stars.
