Palak Tiwari’s foray into Bollywood, which might appear to be a dream come true, actually began with a genuine love for filmmaking rather than financial aspirations. Before her acting debut in Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan in 2023, Palak contributed to Salman Khan’s 2019 production, Antim: The Final Truth, not as an actor, but as an assistant director.
In a recent conversation with Mashable India, Palak disclosed that she didn’t accept any payment for her role behind the scenes on Antim. She explained, “Paisa kya hota hai? I’m in Salman sir’s presence, you think I’ll ask for money? Why, I’ve never asked for money, ever! You can, Salman sir would say, ‘Sure.’ But main kya bachchi, main kya hi contribute karungi ki wo mujhe paise de yaar.”
Even after completing an entire film with Salman Khan, Palak Tiwari remains in awe of the superstar. She shared, “I’ve done a whole film with him, whenever I meet him till date, or even if I get a message from him, I get star struck. I usually don’t get star struck, you can make anyone sit in front of me. But when he’s in front of me, I stop speaking and start stuttering. He just changed my entire personality. Then he said, ‘Aaram se bolo’.” Her experience highlights a deep respect and admiration for Salman Khan that transcends her professional involvement.
