Dubai has always been a city that loves Bollywood, and last night was no different. The city witnessed a grand event full of glitz, glamour, and, of course, star power. Bollywood superstar Salman Khan arrived with his family and close friends to launch his nephew Ayaan Agnihotri's music album at a high-end lounge.

If anyone ever doubted the influence of Bollywood’s inner circle, Salman made sure to set the record straight. Surrounded by a star-studded guest list, including Sonakshi Sinha, Zaheer Iqbal, Sunil Grover, Bobby Deol, Iulia Vantur, and fitness expert Yasmin Karachiwala, the event was not just about the music—it was about connections, influence, and family loyalty.

As the evening unfolded, Salman set the tone with his signature humor. With a grin, he confidently declared, “That is what is called nepotism.” Instead of shying away from the topic, he openly addressed it, even giving a lighthearted yet firm explanation of why supporting family in the industry should not be seen as a problem.

“We work for other people’s children, we love other people’s children, we give our wealth to other people’s kids,” he said, hinting at how Bollywood often shifts its stance on what is acceptable and what isn’t. His words made it clear—he doesn’t believe in hiding the reality of the industry. He owns it.

But the real surprise of the night was the story behind Ayaan’s journey. According to Salman, Ayaan had been locked away in his room for years, with his family wondering why he spent so much time alone. Salman even joked, “Why does he spend so much time in his bathroom? We all wondered.” Turns out, Ayaan wasn’t just wasting time—he was creating music. After years of working behind the scenes, he finally got his big moment, with a launch event that only Bollywood royalty could pull off.

Nepotism, favoritism, family ties—call it whatever you want, but Salman made it clear that he sees no harm in backing someone he believes in. And when a Khan decides to support someone, they do it in style.

Bobby Deol, who attended the event, spoke warmly about the Khan family. “I couldn’t dream of missing Ayaan’s launch in Dubai. Salman and his family have hearts of gold. Ayaan’s dad and I studied together, so this is a proud moment for all of us.”

With the kind of backing Ayaan received, it’s no surprise that the event was a grand success. But as for his music? Early reactions have been mixed. While some appreciated his work, others felt he still had a long way to go.

Regardless of the reviews, one thing is certain—Ayaan is stepping into the industry with the kind of support and exposure that most newcomers can only dream of. And with an uncle like Salman Khan in his corner, the journey ahead is bound to be interesting.
