Salman Khan's Sikandar and Sunny Deol's Jaat are constantly being compared at the Box Office, for obvious reasons, but they are proving to be bros in real life

Sunny Deol's Jaat is constantly being compared to Salman Khan's Sikandar when it comes to the box office, but it has not affected the duo's friendship. That is the cutest thing on the internet today! Salman Khan rooted for Jaat's release loudly and came forward for his fellow Bollywood actor, winning hearts with his gesture. Here's what the actor shared...
Salman Khan shared a video of Sunny Deol to promote his latest theatrical release, Jaat. In this clip, Deol is seen enjoying his aloo da paratha with makkhan on a flight. The actor freely dances to the title song of his movie. Salman shared the same as his Instagram story with the caption, #Jaat. This clip is the cutest thing you would see on the internet today for more reasons than one, but mainly because it brings the big screen competitors closer in real life.
More recently, Salman Khan had pointed out that nobody supported him during the release of his movie, Sikandar, in theatres. He pointed out that while most assume that Bhaijaan does not need support, he also does require Bollywood support from time to time. Interestingly, back then, Deol had come out and promoted Sikandar. If one recalls, Salman did not receive a lot of support during Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan's theatrical release either. It being an Eid offering was considered enough, and the buzz around the movie, initially titled Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali, was immense. Salman, in fact, had his post-pandemic opening with Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai. This movie made headlines for having a connection with Tere Naam. Thus, the viewers were constantly curious to find out what those movies were about, and Bhaijaan did not require additional support, or so was assumed.
Varun Dhawan, who has been touted as the number 1 fan of Salman Khan (the superstar and Dhawan's father David Dhawan have collaborated on some of the best movies of their career), finally came out in support of Sunny Deol. This happened probably after reading Salman Khan's statement on Bollywood's silence for Sikandar. Nonetheless, support from this young talent might just open doors and we might get to see the film fraternity stand united for one another once again in times when losses are more and Box Office successes like Vicky Kaushal's Chhaava are fewer.
