In a candid conversation, Salman Shaikh spoke about how his father has inspired and motivated him to become successful as an actor:
Salman Shaikh, talking about his interest of becoming an artist said, `My father has always wanted me to become a doctor, but when I told him about my interest and passion of becoming an artist, he understood my emotions for the same and paved the wayfor acting. Though I was very nervous about acting, my father encouraged me to try my hands on it. During my early days, I started going to a theatre in Jaipur named Rang Manch and whatever I am today, I owe it to that place. I started my acting workshop and gained confidence about my acting skills through it.`
Sharing about his love for dance, he said,`When I was a child, I was enthusiastic about dancing and my go-to song used to be `Ek Pal Ka Jeena` from Kaho Na Pyar Hai. This song means a lot to me andHrithik Roshan has been my inspiration for dance since childhood. His love, passion and dedication towards dance has made me work harder and ace as a dancer.`
He further added,`Wherever I stand today in the television industry, my father plays a very important role, and he has always taught me not to be over-confident and stay grounded. His expectations from me are a lot more and he keeps telling me to improve myself everyday and do better as an artist. My parents have always appreciated my work and they love watching me as Rajbir Tomar in Sony SAB's Maddam Sir. Their blessings mean a lot to me and are a driving force to keep improving and better my skills.`
