Away from the public spectacle, Salman rang in his birthday at his Panvel farmhouse with family members and close friends. Videos from the late-night celebrations surfaced online, showing the actor cutting multiple cakes with his inner circle.

Just after midnight, Salman stepped outside to greet the media waiting at the farmhouse. He cut a large cake with the paparazzi, posed for pictures and acknowledged them with a smile.

One video doing the rounds shows Salman dressed casually in a black T-shirt and blue jeans, cutting a white cake topped with red berries, surrounded by his security team. After the cake-cutting, he shared a warm moment with senior journalist Bharti Dubey, greeting her with a hug and a kiss.
