Shah Rukh Khan has been 'papa's friend', Salman Khan is more than 'family', says Baba Siddique’s son Zeeshan as he shares his bond with superstars

As a lifestyle expert with a keen interest in Bollywood and politics, I find it fascinating to delve into the unique relationship dynamics of influential figures like Baba Siddique and his connections with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.


Baba Siddique, the head of the National Congress Party, has had strong connections with numerous Bollywood personalities. His son Zeeshan Siddique recently discussed their relationships with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. Zeeshan affectionately referred to Shah Rukh as his father’s friend, whereas he described Salman as being more than just a family acquaintance.

During a recent interview with The Lallantop, Zeeshan Siddique was questioned about his father, Baba Siddique’s murder. The discussion often steers towards his Bollywood connections, particularly with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. When asked if they were friends in his family, Zeeshan promptly replied, “Indeed.

I’d be honored to clarify: Beyond just being a family friend, Salman is more like family to me. Compared to Shah Rukh who has always been my father’s friend, Salman and my father share a bond forged in childhood. To put it simply, Salman holds a special place in our lives.

I, being an ardent admirer, shared that since my dad left us, I’ve been chatting with Salman almost every day or two. He always asks about our well-being, making sure the family is doing fine. Interestingly, we never delved into the troubling matters concerning the threats Salman has been facing from Lawrence Bishnoi’s group. To me, a father’s friend is like a beloved ‘Chacha (Uncle),'” I added, emphasizing the bond they share.

Zeeshan explained that he calls Salman ‘bhai’ due to the unique way Salman presents himself, finding it uncomfortable to call him ‘uncle’. Nevertheless, Zeeshan behaves towards him as he would with an uncle.

Besides this, when asked whether any renowned Bollywood stars might join his political campaign, Zeeshan clarified that he and his father have always kept their private and public lives separate. He emphasized that anyone who wants to participate in their campaign is free to do so.

Yet, given that numerous celebrities prefer to steer clear of political leanings, they are often reluctant to place others in awkward positions, where they might hesitate to endorse their views.

Baba Siddique was renowned for his grand Iftar gatherings attended by many celebrities, and for resolving disputes between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. In an interview with BBC Hindi previously, Zeeshan shared that Salman has been closely monitoring their family and has been losing sleep over the matter.
