Shehnaaz Gill reveals how Salman Khan inspired her to grow in life

Shehnaaz Gill shot to the limelight after she took part in the 13th season of Bigg Boss, hosted by Salman Khan. In an interview, the reality show contestant revealed that Salman Khan was an inspiration to her. Ever since her participation in the show, the duo have been on cordial terms. And now Shehnaaz is also set to appear in Salman Khan's forthcoming movie, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan.

In the interview with Connect FM Canada, Shehnaaz was questioned about how she managed to develop a mature attitude at such a young age. To which Shehnaaz stated in Hindi, “When you live alone and come from a small town, you grow. One must never stop growing. I learn from people around me. Everyone you meet teaches you something, and I feel that whoever I’ve crossed paths with — good or bad - has taught me something. They’ve taught me how to deal with situations. I am strong enough to deal with situations.”

When questioned what Salman has taught her, Shehnaaz responded, “I've learnt to keep pushing myself forward. He advised me that if I put in a lot of effort, I can succeed in life. He motivates me a lot.”

Shehnaaz made headlines after she became good friends with the late actor Sidharth Shukla, who was also a participant on the show. Even though they didn't officially declare their relationship after the season came to a close, the two remained together and for the fans of the duo, they were also a couple. Last year, Sidharth passed away after he suffered a heart attack. Shehnaaz went unnoticed for a while.

She later made a comeback and appeared in the Punjabi movie Honsla Rakh. Her first Bollywood film is Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan opposite Salman. She will also appear in 100% , directed by Sajid Khan. The film will also feature Riteish Deshmukh, John Abraham, and Nora Fatehi.
