Salman Khan is a genius when it comes to casting the perfect actors for his movies. He had this brilliant idea to cast Nawazuddin Siddiqui as the hilarious Pakistani reporter, Chand Nawab.

Can you believe they actually auditioned over 1000 girls for the role of Munni! And get this, they didn't just look in India, but they even searched in Iran and Afghanistan!

Not many are aware that the 'Chicken Song' contains a veiled political statement on the beef ban in the country.

There were 7 cases lodged against Kabir Khan after the film was announced. A PIL was filed against him to change the title.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan earned 300 cr at the box office!

Written by KV Vijayendra Prasad, Bajrangi Bhaijaan released 10 days after Baahubali: The Beginning, both the films turned out to be massive blockbusters. Both written by the same man.

The entry scene of Nawazuddin Siddiqui is hilariously based on a true story involving a Pakistani reporter with the same name as Nawazuddin's character, Chand Nawab.

Salman Khan actually has horses named Bajrangi and Bhaijaan.
