Salman Khan's ex Somi Ali drops bombshell: I caused his breakup with Sangeeta Bijlani
Somi, 16 at the time, says she was naive, while Salman, 27, knew what he was doing. Somi now admits she made a mistake, but blames both parties for the breakup
Mumbai (The Uttam Hindu): The relationship between Bollywood superstar Salman Khan and his former girlfriend Somi Ali has always been a topic of discussion. The bitterness of this relationship, which ended years ago, still lingers in Somi's statements. Now, once again, Somi Ali has made a sensational revelation about Salman Khan, which has created a stir in B-town. Somi has candidly described how, after falling in love with her, Salman broke up with his then-fiancée Sangeeta Bijlani, even though their wedding cards had already been printed.
Salman was caught red-handed, Sangeeta gave him an ultimatum
Recalling that period, Somi Ali revealed in an interview that she was once living in Vindhyachal. One morning, she and Salman Khan were having breakfast together when Sangeeta Bijlani suddenly arrived. Seeing them together, Sangeeta became furious and gave Salman a direct ultimatum. According to Somi, Sangeeta bluntly told Salman, "Either choose her or me." Somi believes that Sangeeta's action was absolutely correct, as it was her full right. After this, Salman chose Somi, and his marriage with Sangeeta ended forever.
'It takes two hands to clap', does Somi regret it?
When Somi was asked if she felt any remorse or guilt for breaking up Salman and Sangeeta's settled home and relationship, Somi candidly replied that at the time she had no idea what she was doing. However, today she certainly admits she made a mistake and brought a marriage to the brink of collapse. But Somi also said that "it always takes two hands to clap." She argued that why should only the woman be held responsible in this case? The man also had an equal role in breaking up the relationship.
'I was 16 and naive, but Salman was 27...'
Somi also spoke openly about the significant age difference between her and Salman Khan and sharply criticized the actor. She explained that she was only 16 years old at the time and had just left the 9th grade, so she lacked much understanding. She only thought that coming to India from America was fulfilling her biggest dream. Somi added that Salman was 27 years old at the time and had full understanding. Somi says that if Salman hadn't abandoned Sangeeta that day, she would have returned to her country. Today, Somi lives in America and frequently comments on their relationship, but Salman Khan has not publicly commented on these matters.
