Wah Bhai Wah: Salman Khan's endearing bond with kids on screen
He may not be a dad in real life, but on the silver screen, Salman has played father figure to adorable kids in many movies. And, when not doing that, he has shared a wonderful on-screen equation with child stars.

Bajranji Bhaijaan
The Kabir Khan directorial narrates the story of a Hindu man (Salman Khan) on a mission to take a young Pakistani girl Munni (Harshaali Malhotra), who is dumb and mute, back to her country.

Jaan-e-Mann
Salman is the only saving grace in this Shirish Kunder-directed disaster. In the film, Salman splits with his love interest, played by Preity Zinta, to concentrate on his film career. Some years later, he finds out that Preity has a baby girl, and that he is the father of the child. Salman's few scenes with the baby in the movie standout for its cuteness quotient
