The Bollywood superstar recently appeared alongside his younger brother, Sohail Khan, during a television appearance where the two discussed fitness, weight loss and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The conversation quickly drew attention after Salman commented on Sohail’s transformed physique.

Noticing his brother’s leaner frame, Salman remarked that Sohail had clearly lost weight. Sohail proudly revealed that he had shed 12 kilograms and achieved a toned physique, even showing off his six-pack abs.

The conversation then turned to Salman himself, who surprised viewers by sharing that he had also undergone a significant physical transformation.

While he did not provide details about the reason behind the weight loss, his comments appeared to reassure fans who had been worried about his health in recent weeks.

Speculation surrounding Salman’s condition intensified after videos from several public appearances circulated online. Many social media users observed that the actor looked noticeably slimmer than before, with some commenting that he appeared tired or frail.

His latest remarks have now clarified that he has intentionally lost a significant amount of weight, although he did not elaborate on his fitness routine, diet or any medical reasons behind the transformation.

Whether for film roles or personal health, the actor has often undergone physical transformations, making fitness an important part of his public image.

Despite the recent attention surrounding his appearance, Salman continues to remain busy with multiple film projects.

One of his most anticipated upcoming releases is the patriotic war drama Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace, previously known as Battle of Galwan. The film has reportedly undergone extensive reshoots, resulting in several changes to its release plans. While it was initially expected to arrive in 2026, recent reports suggest the release has been pushed back and may now take place in 2027.

The actor is also preparing for another major project alongside South Indian star Nayanthara. The film, currently being referred to by its working title SVC63, is being directed by Vamshi Paidipally. Although an official title has yet to be announced, the makers are reportedly targeting an Eid 2027 release.

With multiple high-profile films in development, Salman remains one of Bollywood’s busiest stars.

    India television actress Aditi Sharma files domestic violence case against husband and in-laws in Mumbai

    Indian television actress Aditi Sharma has filed a domestic violence complaint against her husband and in-laws in Mumbai, alleging that she was subjected to physical and mental abuse, harassment, and mistreatment after her marriage. The actress has accused her husband, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law of involvement in repeated incidents of domestic violence and emotional distress. According to police officials, a First Information Report (FIR) was registered on July 31 at the Goregaon Police Station in Mumbai against Aditi Sharma’s husband, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law. The police have started an investigation into the allegations and are examining the details provided in the complaint. In her complaint, Aditi Sharma alleged that she faced continuous physical and psychological abuse, including beatings, verbal harassment, character assassination, and domestic intimidation. She also accused her in-laws of misusing the jewelry and valuables that she had brought with her as part of her wedding belongings. The actress explained that she first met her husband, Abhinay, in June 2021 during an online acting class. Their initial friendship gradually developed into a romantic relationship, and the couple eventually decided to get married with the consent of both families. According to Sharma, the relationship appeared positive in the beginning, but problems started shortly after their marriage. She stated that the couple began living together in a flat in Goregaon West in September 2024 and got married on November 12, 2024, in the presence of their families. However, she alleged that her husband’s behavior changed soon after the wedding. According to her complaint, disagreements began over minor issues, including her clothing choices and everyday household matters. Sharma further alleged that instead of contributing to household expenses, her husband frequently took money from her. She claimed that she had to bear financial responsibilities while also facing emotional and mental pressure within the marriage. The actress stated that a dispute on January 1, 2025, regarding drinking coffee turned into a serious argument. Following that incident, she alleged that her husband began questioning her character, accusing her of having inappropriate relationships, and repeatedly checking her mobile phone. She claimed that these actions created an atmosphere of suspicion and control, eventually leading her husband to move to a separate room and stop maintaining normal marital relations. Aditi Sharma also alleged that she was prevented from communicating freely with her parents. She claimed that restrictions were placed on her interactions with her family, which caused her additional emotional suffering and isolation. In another serious allegation, Sharma accused her mother-in-law of keeping her wedding jewelry and refusing to return it despite repeated requests. She claimed that her jewelry was retained without her consent and that her efforts to recover her belongings were ignored. The actress further alleged that whenever attempts were made to resolve disputes within the family, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law consistently supported her husband and contributed to her continued harassment. The police have registered the case and initiated further investigation into the allegations. The matter will now proceed according to the legal process, with authorities expected to examine evidence and statements from all parties involved.

    Time-restricted eating may boost brain health

      A recent study suggests that limiting daily meals to an eight- to nine-hour eating window may help support brain health, particularly in older women. The findings were presented at NUTRITION 2026, the annual meeting of the American Society for Nutrition, and are currently considered preliminary because the research has not yet been peer-reviewed. Scientists from Rutgers University found that women aged 50 to 79 who followed time-restricted eating while maintaining a calorie deficit performed better on certain cognitive tests than those who spread their meals over a typical 12-hour period. The six-month study included 47 overweight or obese women, all of whom reduced their daily calorie intake by about 500 calories. Of the participants, 26 consumed all of their meals within an average 8.2-hour window, while the remaining women ate over an average 12.3-hour period. Both groups lost nearly 15 pounds on average by the end of the study. However, the women who followed the shorter eating window performed better in spatial planning and problem-solving tasks. They also made fewer errors on learning and memory tests, although those improvements were not statistically significant. Researchers found no noticeable differences in reaction time or multitasking abilities. Lead researcher Dr. Sue Shapses, a professor at Rutgers University and Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, said the findings suggest that meal timing may provide additional cognitive benefits beyond weight loss alone. She explained that finishing meals about four hours before bedtime and limiting eating to an eight- or nine-hour daily window may help reduce age-related cognitive decline. Researchers believe these benefits could be linked to the body’s circadian rhythm, metabolism, inflammation, and nutrient-sensing pathways, although more research is needed to confirm these effects. Experts cautioned that the findings should be interpreted carefully because the study involved a relatively small number of participants and has not yet undergone peer review. The researchers emphasized that larger and longer-term studies are needed to determine whether time-restricted eating can significantly improve long-term brain health and cognitive function. Until further evidence becomes available, the results provide encouraging but preliminary insights into how meal timing may influence healthy brain aging.

    AJK violence won’t derail democracy: DG ISPR

    Pakistan’s military has defended the state’s handling of unrest in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and the security situation in Balochistan, saying the government is exercising restraint while remaining committed to constitutional governance, counterterrorism efforts and national stability. Addressing a detailed press conference on Friday, Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said political issues should be resolved through democratic and constitutional means, while security challenges require strong governance and public support. State urges constitutional path in AJK The military spokesperson said the state had acted with restraint in dealing with recent unrest in AJK, adding that the electoral process would continue without disruption. He stressed that the will of the people should be reflected through democratic institutions and that all individuals would be held accountable under the Constitution and the law. He said Pakistan remained committed to its long-standing position on Kashmir, describing the region as central to the country’s national policy. He also rejected claims that the Pakistan Army was an occupying force in AJK, saying security matters in the region were being handled by the AJK government, police and civilian law enforcement agencies. The DG ISPR alleged that India was attempting to fuel instability inside Pakistan through proxy campaigns and misinformation, while reaffirming Pakistan’s support for the Kashmiri people’s right to self-determination under United Nations resolutions. Good governance key to national security Responding to questions about governance reforms, the military spokesperson said effective administration was essential for ensuring peace and long-term stability. He noted that Pakistan’s rapidly growing population required a review of administrative structures and said reforms should be debated and implemented through constitutional and democratic processes. He said an administrative reset could be considered if it helped improve governance, but emphasized that any changes must reflect the will of the people and remain within the legal framework. Referring to the National Action Plan, he said most of its objectives—including countering extremist narratives, stopping terror financing, improving institutional capacity and tackling smuggling—depended on strong governance rather than military action alone. Security operations intensify against terrorism The DG ISPR said security forces had significantly increased intelligence-based operations across the country during 2026, conducting thousands of operations aimed at dismantling terrorist networks. According to him, more than 2,000 militants had been killed this year, while hundreds of security personnel and civilians had embraced martyrdom. He said the majority of recent suicide bombers were Afghan nationals and accused militant groups linked to the Afghan Taliban of supporting cross-border terrorism against Pakistan. He maintained that the rise in security incidents reflected a more aggressive counterterrorism strategy, with intelligence-led operations forcing militants into direct confrontation with security forces. Balochistan challenges linked to governance and propaganda Discussing Balochistan, the military spokesperson said the province’s security challenges stemmed from a combination of militancy, organized crime, entrenched elite interests and external interference. He argued that some influential groups resisted reforms to preserve their political and economic influence, while terrorist organizations exploited local grievances through propaganda. He highlighted ongoing development projects, including investments in education, healthcare, transport infrastructure and Gwadar’s development, saying the government had allocated substantial resources to the province. He also referred to data from the Commission of Inquiry on Enforced Disappearances, stating that most reported cases had already been resolved while investigations into the remaining cases were continuing.
