Salman Khan, the renowned Bollywood superstar, recently graced an event in Saudi Arabia, where he attended a high-profile boxing match. During the event, a series of captivating photos and videos surfaced featuring Salman Khan seated alongside the global football sensation Cristiano Ronaldo and his girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez.

Social media buzzed with speculations when a video circulated on Monday suggesting that Ronaldo had seemingly walked past Salman Khan without acknowledging him, sparking concerns of a potential snub. This incident triggered a passionate fan debate on social platforms, with some expressing disappointment that the football legend didn't show due respect to the Indian superstar.

In the following days, the internet was flooded with images and clips from the event, accompanied by trolling directed at Salman Khan, insinuating that he lacked global recognition, hence leading to Ronaldo's apparent indifference. Some even noted that despite sharing the same seating area, the two celebrities appeared not to interact.

However, a new video from the event has now quashed the earlier speculations. The video shows both Salman Khan and Cristiano Ronaldo deeply engrossed in a friendly conversation, with Salman eliciting laughter from Ronaldo. Georgina Rodriguez, Ronaldo's partner, is also seen in close proximity.

This video conclusively dispels the notion of any snub or cold-shoulder behavior, underlining the mutual respect between two global icons. Ronaldo's stature in football and Salman Khan's prominence in the world of Indian cinema remain unaffected by such interactions. This video has brought solace to Salman Khan's fans, who had witnessed him being trolled in the preceding days.
