    Well, another clip has now taken the internet by storm. This time, Salman took a trip down memory lane and remembered a time during his struggling days. He went to an expensive shop and bought a pair of stone-washed jeans. He was also eyeing a wallet but could not afford it. Actor Suniel Shetty noticed this and gifted him a stone-washed shirt along with the wallet that Salman really wanted. The superstar got teary-eyed remembering the same and gave Suniel’s son Ahan Shetty , who won the IIFA Star Debut award, a tight hug.

    During the award function, Salman also expressed his gratitude for filmmaker Boney Kapoor. He thanked the producer for reviving his career back in 2009, when things were not going great for the actor, with the super hit action thriller film Wanted . Salman went on to joke that with his 2005 comedy No Entry , Boney brought his actor brother Anil Kapoor back.

    Interestingly, Salman will soon reunite with Anil on-screen for the spiritual sequel of No Entry, titled No Entry Mein Entry.
