Salim Kumar is one of the most loved stars of Malayalees. Recently, Ananda Bose, who is the Governor of West Bengal, shared an interesting incident about him. Father Abel is the founder of Kalabhavan. Salim Kumar was given the Father Abel Award by the Kalabhavan in his memory. It was at this function that the Governor of Bengal told an interesting experience. Actor Ramesh Pisharadi was also present at the event.
Ananda Bose narrated the incident with the guise that Pisharati told the story. Ananda Bose said that he had heard many stories about Salim Kumar and he did not know whether these were true or made up by Pisharati. Ananda Bose said that when one hears about the story, the first thing that comes to mind is Pisharati and no one else has seen so much effort to make a story out of the absence of a story and only Pisharati can do it.
“Salim Kumar was coming from a foreign trip. Then there was a big problem with the flight. He was on his way back from New York to Delhi. An elderly Punjabi lady with an economy class ticket has boarded the first class. Even when the air hostess came and told them, they had not changed. She said that she was the first to board the flight and so the others could go behind if they wanted to. Finally Salimkumar intervened in this problem. Salimkumar said something in their ears. Hearing this, the woman immediately calmed down. Got up from there and went to economy class. With this, everyone was curious to know what Salim Kumar said in the woman’s ear” – said the Governor.
“Salimkumar told the woman – this seat you are sitting on is going to London. The one behind is going to Delhi. This was the reply given by Salim Kumar. It seemed very interesting” – says the Governor of Bengal. At the same time, many people are now coming forward to appreciate his sense of humor and this incident is now going viral in a big way on social media.
