Mumbai, Sep 29 (NationPress) Bollywood actor Sohail Khan recently treated fans to a rare and touching insight into his family life by sharing a photograph featuring his mother, Salma Khan, and his stepmother, Helen, alongside their husband, the renowned Bollywood writer Salim Khan.

In a humorous yet affectionate comparison to the recent tri-series held in the UAE, where India triumphed over Pakistan, Sohail quipped, "The best triangular series ever played."

This snapshot resonated deeply with fans, who seldom glimpse this intimate aspect of the Khan family. Within the picture, the two women appear comfortably seated with Salim Khan in a relaxed atmosphere, radiating a sense of warmth that eloquently conveys the bond they share.

The narrative of the Khan family has long captivated Bollywood enthusiasts. Veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, known for iconic Hindi films like "Sholay" and "Zanjeer", first wed Salma Khan (previously Sushila Charak) in 1964. Together, they welcomed four children: Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, followed by Arbaaz Khan, Sohail Khan, and Alvira Agnihotri.

Eventually, Salim Khan met the famous Bollywood dancer and actress Helen, and their friendship blossomed into love, culminating in their marriage in 1981. This step was not without its challenges, as Salim openly acknowledged that his affection for Helen was an emotional accident. He chose to be forthright with his family rather than allowing them to hear about it through gossip columns.

Over the years, both Salma and Helen have gracefully navigated the complexities of their situation, with Helen often recognizing the challenges faced by Salma and expressing her intention to avoid causing any division. Today, the Khan family exemplifies resilience and respect amidst unconventional dynamics. Helen, once the queen of Bollywood cabaret, remains a cherished cultural figure, while Salman stands as the family matriarch who has anchored them through turbulent times, together forming a household that continues to command public admiration.

Sohail's playful cricket analogy provided a rare glance at the harmony within this blended family. Fans inundated the comments section with affection, praising the post as a beautiful reminder that families have the capacity to evolve with time, respect, and love. Salim Khan and Salma Khan also raised Arpita Khan, whom they adopted as an infant.

She is cherished by the entire Khan-dan, especially in Salman's eyes. Helen did not have any children of her own but regards Salma's children as her own, and the kids reciprocate her affection.
