Says a source, “It featured people who Salman considers close friends like Suniel Shetty, David Dhawan, Anil, Subhash Ghai and Jackie Shroff. It also had newcomers like Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty, who Salman has launched. All the people who were contacted and immediately said yes included ex-girlfriends Sangeeta Bijlani and Somy Ali, not to mention his staff, man friday Nadeem and his non-filmi friends.”

The source continues, “The one-hour video also has special moments from his life. It was a surprise for Salman. There were many warm, wonderful and touching moments in the video. The video was shot and put together over the last month.” Salman really could not have asked for a better gift.
