I love vintage Bollywood – absolutely love it!
So I happened to stumble upon Salman Khan‘s first ad ever. The man was 15 years old then! And if that’s not enough to blow your mind, let me tell you that one of his many co-stars in the ad is Ayesha Shroff – Tiger Shroff‘s mom.
Salman isn’t even one of the main guys in the ad and now he’s one of the country’s biggest superstars! Love how things work out.
Watch

Memories;I would like to share here occasionally some memories along the way that keep popping up from my eventful journey as a filmmaker. Here is a cinema commercial from the mid 80’s. The first time Salman faced the camera at the age of 15 the start of a beautiful friendship. Aarti Gupta Surendranath, Ayesha Shroff, Sunil Nischol, Vanessa, Shiraz Merchant also feature. The popular models of that time. I handled the camera myself for all the underwater shots.Shot in the Andaman Islands.
