Yes it helps to have him as a friend. In Bollywood someone like him knowing you helps gets contacts. But I think whatever work his friends have got are more or less on their own merits. Otherwise his brothers too would have been big stars. But getting the first break in Bollywood is tough for a newbie. Salman has definitely helped people with that by putting in a word for them.

Sure!

As does having Dawood Ibrahim for a friend. Or Abbas Mastaan.

If you were in Nazi Germany ...hell having Hitler for a friend would brighten your prospects.

And God forbid...if an armed burglar were to ever enter your house... having him for your friend may possibly save your life!

As long as you bend down, kiss his soles, and ignore the occasional slap across your cheek. 'Cos if you anger him - then it is finito for you.

Just ask Vivek "Who" Oberoi, Himesh Reshmaiyya, Ismail Durbar, Sneha Ullal and the countless others whose career he "finished".

Sneha Ullal - only because she reminded him of Ash. He wanted to show the world he could easily get another Ash if he wanted. And once the message was put forth... he had nothing more to do with her and wanted her out.

I dont think anyone can change anyone's fate. Vivek's career got over because of his own mistakes-primarily thinking he is the best thing that happenned to Bollywood. Angering Salman only hastened the process.
Himesh and Sneha arent good enough to be actors. Ismail Durbar though I am not sure what his story was. I think he had a problem with Sanjay Leela Bhansali rather than Salman. Plus there were lots of behaviorial problems too like becoming too big for his boots. Himesh too the same applies. Even Sonu is the same state as Himesh...but his downfall is in no way linked to Salman.

Oh I agree Himesh is no good as an actor. But do you remember when he was "the music director"???? The lord of them all?

Yep...but he gave it all up because some chamchas convinced him he could give competition to the Khans. The same applied to Sonu.
