Salman Khan's Hilarious Childhood Tale: The Time He Threw a Pencil at Arbaaz Khan!

Bollywood's beloved "Bhaijaan," Salman Khan, has long been a fixture on Indian television, gracing audiences with his charismatic presence as the host of the reality show Bigg Boss. Prior to his role on the controversial reality series, Khan also commanded attention as the host of the quiz show Dus Ka Dum. This popular television programme was known not only for its engaging format but also for featuring a plethora of prominent stars from the Hindi film industry.

During one memorable episode of Dus Ka Dum, Salman Khan regaled the audience with a delightful anecdote from his childhood, providing a glimpse into the sibling dynamics between him and his younger brother, Arbaaz Khan. The revelation came as part of the show's format, which often included personal stories from the celebrities featured.

Salman Khan shared a humorous tale involving an incident that occurred when he was preparing for his examinations. Recalling the episode, Salman noted, "I mistakenly studied for a different exam, and on the night before, I realized that the geography paper was the next day. Arbaaz kept laughing, saying I was studying history instead of geography." Despite Salman's entreaties for his brother to cease his teasing, Arbaaz persisted in his mockery, a habit that apparently extended beyond this particular incident. Salman further described how Arbaaz frequently highlighted his academic shortcomings, a source of consternation that led their father to reprimand him.

In a fit of exasperation, Salman Khan resorted to a rather unconventional response. He threw a pencil at Arbaaz, which, much to his chagrin, lodged itself into his brother’s chest like a dart. Salman added with characteristic humour, "He was sitting shirtless. It’s a family tradition to be shirtless." The anecdote concluded with Arbaaz playfully revealing that he had chased Salman around the house while still bearing the pencil embedded in his chest.
