What's the story

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan appeared on the first episode of Karan Johar's chat show, Koffee With Karan Season 9. During the rapid-fire round with special guest Karisma Kapoor, he was asked which director he would choose for his biopic. To this, Khan replied that a biopic on his life will "never be made."

Director selection

Khan picked David Dhawan for a comedy

When Kapoor asked him to choose from four directors, Kabir Khan, David Dhawan, Sooraj Barjatya, and Sanjay Leela Bhansali, for his biopic, Khan had some interesting picks.

He said if it were a comedy about his life, he would choose Dhawan as the director. For a classic tragic love story based on his life, Bhansali would be ideal.

Action-packed love story

'My life will go to my grave'

Khan also mentioned that if his life were to be made into an action-packed love story, Kabir would be the right choice.

He said, "If you want to make a beautiful love story after love story, it would be Sooraj Barjatya."

However, he firmly stated that a biopic on his life will never happen. "My life will go to my grave," he said.

On why he called himself a virgin

During the episode, Johar also brought up Khan's previous statement about being a virgin.

The actor clarified that he made that statement to avoid discussing his dating life or relationships.

He explained, "Because you keep on saying, 'You are dating so-and-so.'.. and you never know that this is the person who is going to be in your life for the rest of your life."
