Music composer Daboo Malik, father of singers Armaan Malik and Amaal Mallik, recently opened up about one of the darkest chapters of his life when he was struggling both emotionally and financially. In a heartfelt revelation, he shared how superstar Salman Khan and his brother Sohail Khan stepped in to help him when he was almost “paralysed” by stress and unable to cope with the pressures surrounding him.
Speaking about that difficult time, Daboo admitted that the constant failures and financial troubles had pushed him into a corner where he felt helpless. “I was under immense stress, and it had completely broken me from within. It reached a point where I felt paralyzed—not physically, but emotionally and mentally. At that stage, Salman and Sohail became my biggest strength,” he said.
According to Daboo, the Khan brothers didn’t just offer him words of comfort but actually stood by him in every possible way, including financially. “They took care of me when I didn’t know how to move forward. Salman bhai and Sohail literally held me up and made sure I didn’t collapse under the weight of my circumstances. Mujhe sambhala,” Daboo expressed with gratitude.
The composer also acknowledged how rare it is in the film industry to find people who stand by you during tough times. He added that the Khans’ gesture was not just about money but about empathy, brotherhood, and unconditional support, something he will never forget in his life.
Over the years, Daboo Malik has made his own mark in the music industry with several compositions and has also seen his sons achieve success. But he admitted that this particular chapter of his journey will always remain etched in his memory as a reminder that kindness and friendship are more valuable than anything else.
His story has touched many hearts, with fans appreciating Salman and Sohail Khan for their generosity and loyalty towards a friend in need. It also highlights the often-unseen side of Bollywood, where genuine bonds of support exist behind the glamour and spotlight.
