Bollywood actors Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai’s rumoured relationship has always been one of the most discussed topics during the early part of their Bollywood careers. They were once admired for their chemistry both on-screen and off-screen, but their romance is said to have ended tragically.
After their alleged split, Aishwarya married Abhishek Bachchan, while Salman still remains single and continues to live as a bachelor. However, Aishwarya had once revealed the emotional and physical toll her relationship with Salman had left on her.
According to TOI, Aishwarya claimed in a 2002 interview that she endured Salman’s violent and abusive behaviour. She said at the time, “I stood by him enduring his alcoholic misbehaviour in its worst phases, and in turn, I was at the receiving end of his abuse-verbal, physical and emotional – infidelity, and indignity.”
The actress continued, “I would go to work as if nothing had happened. Salman hounded me and caused physical injuries to himself when I refused to take his calls. That is why, like any other self-respecting woman, I ended my relationship with him.”

Meanwhile, Salman has denied Aishwarya’s claims in a previous interview with NDTV. He said, “Now, the woman has said that I have what to say… a journalist, who asked me this a long time ago, and I just banged the table and he got startled, as if the table really broke.”
He continued, “I said, ‘Now if I hit somebody, it’s obviously going to be a fight. I’m going to be angry. Forget whack, I’m going to give her my best shot. I don’t think she’ll survive it. So no, it’s not true, and I don’t know for what reason that was said.'”
Aishwarya shares a daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, with her husband, Abhishek.
