Recently a video of Salman Khan has been going viral with the claim the Bollywood superstar was a background dancer at the recent Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre launch. The video shows Salman Khan dancing in the background and cheering Mukesh Ambani's son Anant Ambani who has taken the centrestage. The viral clip is being used to mock and ridicule Salman allegedly for 'lowering his stature' in the video, though it is on an individual's perspective whether it is right or not. The only thing we can correct here is that this video is not from NMACC Gala event.

Yes, Salman Khan, along with other top stars from Bollywood and even Hollywood (Tom Holland, Zendaya, Penelope Cruz, Zendaya) did attend the gala on two different days. However, he didn't perform at the event; instead it was Shah Rukh Khan, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Rashmika Mandanna who were seen dancing and entertaining the crowds.
