Salman Khan's post on health

Late on Sunday night, Salman took to Instagram to share several monochrome pictures of himself, accompanied by the cheeky caption: "Aap logon ki tabiyat kaisi hai" (How is everyone's health?) The caption was, to many, a tongue-in-cheek response to the latest online chatter surrounding his health.

The new set of pictures saw Salman dressed in the same clothing as the event earlier in the week, posing for the camera. He donned a denim jacket and cowboy hat for some pictures as well, looking noticeably at ease in front of the lens.

Fans were quick to respond, as many took to the comment section to join in on the actor's veiled dig at the speculation. Actor Mahhi Vij also reacted to the post and wrote, "toooo goooodddddd," alongside laughing emojis.

During the event, the actor also handed over house keys to beneficiaries.

Salman appeared at the event wearing a cap, alongside a casual shirt and denims combo. However, it was his demeanour in the pictures that sparked concern among fans. The visuals sparked widespread discussion online, prompting fans to share messages wishing him good health. “What happened to Salman Khan?? At first I thought it's not him but saw shera too there. He is ageing like Dharmendra,” one comment read, with one reading, “That’s Salman Khan? Is he unwell? Omg”.
