Bollywood actor Salman Khan joined his family for Ganpati Visarjan at brother Sohail Khan's Mumbai residence on Tuesday night. During the aarti, his sister Arpita Khan noticed he was rotating the thali anti-clockwise and corrected him mid-ritual, a moment captured on video and widely shared online.
Salman appeared cheerful, posed for paparazzi, and greeted a child before performing the aarti. His rumoured girlfriend Iulia Vantur also attended, wearing a yellow anarkali suit. The visarjan took place inside the building premises using a pre-arranged water tank. Arpita's quick intervention drew affectionate comments from fans who called the sibling bond 'cute'.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All three outlets play the moment as warm family bonding, not news. Hindustan Times dials up the fan-reaction social media loop and adds a long film-update tail unrelated to the ceremony. Freepress Journal runs an unedited agency feed with no added reporting. Telangana Today uses the aarti correction as a springboard for a broader piece on the Khan family's multi-faith traditions. No source questions, fact-checks, or adds critical context. A reader needing only what happened is served identically by any wire. The only editorial choice visible is whether to treat this as celebrity beat fluff or as a cultural-identity essay.
