Salman Khan is a happy man these days as his painting recently fetched a neat sum of 1 Crore by an art lover called Ramesh. Salman had withdrew his painting initially from the charity auction when he found out that the maximum amount it was fetching was just 20 Lakhs.Says a source, "The deal took place over the phone between Salman and Ramesh. He bought the painting for a crore yesterday."
Sunaina Narula, chairman Plan India - a charitable organization, had told Mumbai Mirror in an earlier interview, "We were auctioning Salman's paintings and the bidding started from 10 lakhs and came up to 20 lakhs. However, Salman was not very happy about the price so he came up to the stage and stopped the auction. He said that it was a very precious painting as it speaks about the emotions between a mother and a son. He took the painting back and informed us that he had a figure in mind and once he got the price he would send the entire amount to Plan India." Narula further informed, "It was Anil Kapoor who spoke to Salman and convinced him to bring his paintings for the auction."
Says a source, "The deal took place over the phone between Salman and Ramesh. He bought the painting for a crore yesterday."
Salman's father Salim Khan confirmed this deal. He says, "Yes, Salman has sold the same painting, which he had pulled out earlier. Though I am not aware of the exact amount it has fetched, or, who it is sold to, I know for sure that the amount has gone to Salman Khan Foundation. The NGO organises charity shows. It will benefit the needy that the foundation supports."
