giving fans a peek into the star’s off-screen personality. Asked if the Khan family has any running jokes about Salman, Ayush admitted that there are many, but he decided to reveal what he called the “safest”.Ayush said the family’s reaction is familiar when Salman extends an invitation to his farm in Panvel.Recalling the joke, he said in an interview with Lallantop Cinema: “Bhai ne Farm pe bulaya hai… toh sabka ek takiya kalaam hai, ‘Chalo Farm chalte hain’.” Lekin wahan sirf wahi jaata hai jisko bulawa aata hai (When Bhai invites someone to the farm, everyone says: ‘Let us go to the farm.’ But only those who receive an invitation go).”Ayush went on to explain that the fun really begins after someone accepts the invitation. According to him, Salman spends a significant amount of time at the farm, and once the guests arrive, they jokingly know that they will leave only when he allows them to. “Wahan Bhai zyada time rehte hain. Toh jab Farm pe bulate hain… apni marzi se jaoge, lekin wapas tab aaoge jab woh bolenge (Bhai spends most of his time at the farm because Salim Saab is not there.
You can go there alone, but you will not return until Bhai tells you to.”This entertaining tale made everyone laugh and highlighted the camaraderie within the Khan family.

But the praise was accompanied by frank comments. Salman told him frankly: “You are in bad shape. You look bad, and you are not trained enough. Just going to acting school will not help. You need to work on multiple things.” He also jokingly turned to his sister Arpita and said, “Kahan se leke aayi hai tu isko?” Ayush said that Salman’s frank advice, belief in his abilities, and willingness to guide him inspired him to take acting seriously.Aayush made his Bollywood debut with Loveyatri in 2018, a romantic drama film produced under the banner of Salman Khan Films. He was last seen in the 2024 action film Ruslan.
