Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai's love story is one of the unforgettable Bollywood affairs till date. Both Aishwarya and Salman's personal and professional life are tough to hide from the media and public. Their news always creates a stir in the entertainment field.

Today we brought an incident that happened in 2002 when Salman and Aishwarya were allegedly dating. Their love story started during the shooting of Bollywood's most iconic movies, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who showcased a beautiful love saga.

But they ended their affair later, within two years on a very bitter note. The rest is history and will remain the most talked about and controversial affairs in Bollywood.

It was said that Salman was very possessive about Aishwarya. In an interview, Aishwarya once talked about facing mental and emotional abuse while in a relationship with Salman. 

Later, Aish vowed never to work with him again. Reports also suggest that Aish's parents were not accepting of their relationship. There were also reports saying Salman misbehaved with them. 

One night Salman made a ruckus outside Aishwarya's apartment at 3:00 am. Because Aishwarya's parents had stopped her from meeting him after that event, and her father Krishnaraj had a police complaint against Salman.

When in an interview, Salman was asked about the accusations, he started to defence Aishwarya's parents. The Kick actor said that it was he who mistreated them. 

The actor had addressed the same in an interview in 2002 with the Times of India. He had said, "Her parents are very nice people. They are orthodox like my family. They have heard about my past affairs and they didn't like me in the life of their daughter. It is my fault, not theirs. I should have understood it earlier. They never stopped me from meeting with Aishwarya despite the fact that I treated them badly. Aishwarya did not like my behaviour towards them just as I would not appreciate anybody misbehaving with my father. Aishwarya's father is completely justified in complaining against me. I have no grudge against him." 

When he was asked about his disputes with the Aishwarya, he had backed himself saying, "If you do not fight in a relationship, it means you do not love each other. Why would I squabble with a person who is a stranger to me?"
