Salman Khan has once again joined his family for their annual Ganpati celebrations, but this time a small moment during the festivities has become the talking point online.
The actor was seen participating in the Ganpati aarti at his brother Sohail Khan’s residence during the family’s Ganpati Visarjan celebrations. While performing the ritual, Salman briefly appeared to rotate the aarti thali in the wrong direction. His sister Arpita Khan noticed it and quickly stepped in to correct him.
The moment was captured on video and has since been widely shared across social media.
Rather than turning into a major incident, the exchange was brief and casual. Salman appeared to take Arpita’s cue and continued with the aarti in the corrected direction.
Arpita Khan Was Quick to Correct Her Brother
In the video, Salman can be seen standing in front of the Ganpati idol with the aarti thali in his hands. As he performs the ritual, Arpita, who is nearby, notices the direction in which he is moving the thali.
She then gestures towards Salman and corrects him.
Salman immediately follows the instruction, making the moment look less like a celebrity appearance and more like an everyday family interaction.
That simple exchange is what appears to have caught the attention of viewers. The clip offers a candid glimpse of the Khan siblings during a religious celebration, with Arpita quietly making sure her brother performs the ritual correctly.
The Khan Family Continues Its Ganpati Tradition
The Khan family has been associated with Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations for years, and Salman regularly participates in the festivities.
This year, the celebrations took place at Sohail Khan’s Mumbai residence. Salman had also joined his family during the earlier Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations, with visuals showing him arriving at Sohail’s home to take part in the festivities.
For the Visarjan, Salman was joined by members of the Khan family, including Arpita and Alvira Khan. Videos from the occasion also showed family members enjoying the celebrations as they prepared to bid farewell to Bappa.
The festivities were filled with the traditional sounds of dhol beats, prayers and dancing, making it another lively family gathering.
Salman Performs Aarti, Iulia Vantur Also Joins
Salman was not the only person seen performing aarti during the celebration.
After Salman, Iulia Vantur was also seen offering prayers to Lord Ganesha. The visuals showed the actor participating in the religious ritual before the immersion ceremony.
Salman kept his outfit relatively simple for the occasion. He was seen in a dark casual look while Arpita wore a traditional ethnic outfit.
The family celebration remained relatively intimate compared with the star-studded Ganpati gathering held at the Ambani residence earlier this week, where Salman was among several Bollywood celebrities in attendance.
The Viral Video Has a Different Kind of Salman Khan Moment
Salman Khan frequently finds himself in the spotlight for his films, public appearances and viral social media videos. But the latest clip is drawing attention for a much simpler reason.
Instead of a dramatic celebrity moment, viewers got to see the superstar being corrected by his sister during a familiar family ritual.
The interaction is particularly relatable because religious rituals often involve small details that family members remind each other about. In this case, Arpita happened to be the one guiding Salman through the aarti.
The video also shows how quickly Salman responded to her correction. There was no prolonged exchange; he simply adjusted the movement and continued with the ceremony.
Ganpati Visarjan Brings the Khan Family Together
Ganpati Visarjan marks the emotional conclusion of the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations, as devotees bid farewell to Lord Ganesha after welcoming the deity into their homes.
For the Khan family, the occasion has become an annual tradition that brings several members together. This year was no different, with Salman, Sohail, Arpita, Alvira and younger members of the family taking part in the celebrations.
The family’s Ganpati celebrations have also regularly attracted public attention because of Salman’s participation.
Earlier this week, the actor was seen attending the Ambani family’s grand Ganesh Chaturthi celebration at Antilia, where several major Bollywood names, including Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal, were present.
Salman Khan’s Festive Appearances Keep Fans Talking
From Antilia to his own family’s Visarjan ceremony, Salman Khan has been part of several Ganpati celebrations this year.
The latest video, however, stands out because it captures a much more informal side of the actor. Arpita’s quick correction during the aarti has given fans a glimpse of the kind of small family interactions that usually remain away from the cameras.
While the moment itself lasted only a few seconds, it was enough to become a viral talking point.
For Salman Khan fans, the video is another reminder that even during a grand celebrity celebration, the superstar can have the same kind of small, relatable moments that happen in any family — including getting a quick reminder from a sibling when he gets a ritual slightly wrong.
