Bollywood diva Sonakshi Sinha’s soon-to-be father-in-law, actor Zaheer Iqbal’s father Iqbal Ratansi, once financially helped Bollywood superstar Salman Khan.

In a tweet from 2018, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan confessed that Iqbal Ratansi helped him financially on multiple occasions and was like a personal bank for him back in the day.

So much so, that the ‘Tiger 3’ star revealed he still owes him a loan of INR2011.

“Iqbal Ratansi used to work like my personal bank during my teenage years. Even today I have a loan of Rs2011 from him. Thank God that to date he has not asked for interest on his loan,” his tweet read.
