Has success gone to Salman's head?
July 26th, 2011 .
The success of back-to-back success, Wanted, Dabangg and Ready, seem to have given Salman an sense of invincibility, where he can do no wrong.
Prior to his blockbuster success Salman's career faced a five-year long slump. Fortunately for Salman, he was given a second chance in the industry.
In recent years, Salman has made it evident that he does not like associating with a lot of people within the industry. It started with a fight with good friend Shah Rukh Khan in 2008. He even had differences with Shahid Kapoor, Vivek Oberoi and John Abraham in their initial days. In fact, the recent trend has been that whoever gets close to SRK, automatically gets into Salman's hate list. Example, Priyanka Chopra.
Post Dabangg, he fought with Abhinav Kashyap, the director of the very film that made him big again. The actor started off the year with a fight with yet another director Anees Bazmee. He even asked for an extra Rs 5 crore from friend Sajid Nadiadwala to star in Kick. Continuing his recent fascination with filmmakers, Salman fought with Bunty Walia last week at good friend Sanjay Dutt's house.
Revealing what happened at the party at Sanjay's house, a source said, "At Manyaata Dutt's birthday party, he was bitching about some of the heroines he is known to be rather close to. He has gone back to his bratty ways. Mind you, this is dangerous."
"His lazy, unprofessional attitude on the sets of Bodyguard is the only reason why the film could not get completed on time. As a result of which, YRF's Ek Tha Tiger has now been delayed at least by ten days," says a source from the industry.
A leading source from the trade said, "Yes, Salman ke dimag mein hawa bhar gaya hai. And it was bound to happen. Didn't it happen with Shah Rukh Khan when he was at the top? Why else would Shah Rukh have fought with Salman? What you need to understand is that Salman was not so big two years ago and Shah Rukh was the king.
Didn't Shah Rukh even start picking on his friends and in the process, lost quite a few of them? When you achieve too much success, maturity tends to fade away. You stop treating others as human beings. Salman has never tasted such success before, so he is bound to get carried away. "
Salman's bad habits in fact, aren't restricted to late rising and fighting at parties. A source from a leading production house informed, "After 1.30 am, Salman starts drinking very heavily. All these mistakes that he has committed recently, fighting with Anees, Sanju etc have happened post one in the morning."
