Salman Khan's sister Alvira is said to have played matchmaker between Sangeeta Bijlani and her brother after Sangeeta's Miss India win in 1980. The duo parted ways in the 90s but are known to share a special friendship. Salman Khan had even admitted on Koffee With Karan that he had almost tied the knot with Sangeeta but at the last moment he himself couldn't take the final step. But after so many year, Sangeeta is still very close to the Khan family and is often seen on many family outings.
Salman Khan was then known to be dating Pakistani actress Somy Ali, who he met through a common friend in 1993. However, rumours suggest that Somy Ali was not too fond of Salman Khan's drinking and aggressive behaviour and she split from the actor in 1999.
Salman Khan was then linked to none other than former Miss World Aishwarya Rai. Their love affiar is one of the most-talked about in the industry. The then 21-year-old Aishwarya Rai fell for the country's most eligible bachelor Salman Khan during the shoot of their film 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam' in 1999. But things fell off and after their split in March 2002, Aishwarya accused Salman Khan of harassing her and her family filed a police complaint against him.
Salman Khan was also rumoured to have found love in Aishwarya-lookalike Sneha Ullal. But their relationship soon fizzled out.The two had worked in 'Lucky No Time For Love.'
Though Salman and Katrina never admitted to their relationship, Katrina Kaif was known to be very close to the Khan family as well. But they ended things in 2010 and continue to be friends, even co-starring in ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ after their breakup. Katrina is very close to Salman Khan and his family.
Post his breakup with Katrina, Salman had a string of affairs to his name – German model Claudia Ciesla, Zarine Khan, Mahek Chahel and Hazel Keech. But nothing came out of it.
His latest rumoured flame is Romanian actress Lulia Vantur. The anchor-actress has been spotted with Salman Khan in India. Salman Khan too have made a trip to Romania to visit her. The duo was believed to have split sometime ago but looks like alls well in Paradise. Could she be the one?
