Sanam Teri Kasam directors Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru began their careers as filmmakers with Lucky: No Time for Love, which starred Salman Khan. The director duo has expressed their admiration for the superstar in several interviews. In a conversation with MK Talks, they recalled Salman’s gesture towards a crew member that left her in tears. Vinay Sapru reminisced about shooting with Salman in
Russia for Lucky: No Time for Love. He recalled how a 65-yearold woman working in costume continuity had tears in her eyes after the superstar left her a significant amount of money following the shoot. He said, “Half of the crew was Russian, and the other half was Indian. We thought of assigning a special
dresswoman for Salman ji, someone who would handle his costume continuity. She was a 65-year-old Russian womanhealthy and like a mother figure. She used to scold Salman on set, and despite being a huge star, he would just keep laughing.” Radhika and Vinay added, “One day, she came on set with tears
in her eyes, and we asked her, ‘Why are you crying?’ She said, ‘No, I got this envelope from Salman.’ Voh itna ro rahi thi, she said shayad mujhe 3-4 saal tak kuch karna hi naa pade. Voh unko thank you bhi nahi bol paayi. Voh insaan kuch aur hi level ke hain.” (She was crying so much. She said that maybe she wouldn’t have to work for the next 3-4 years. She couldn’t even thank him. He is a man of a completely different level.) The filmmakers then revealed that Salman had given the woman more than $10,000.
Radhika further shared that Salman didn’t hand over the envelope himself; instead, he had already left Russia after completing the shoot, and that’s when the crew member received it. Reddit users were impressed with Salman’s generosity. One of the comments read, “Respect him for wanting to help others. This is special.” A fan wrote, “I want to be like Salman in the future.”
