Acknowledging the current state of Arjun and Salman’s equation, Boney credited Salman for shaping Arjun’s growth as an actor. Despite any issues between them, Boney still holds Salman in high regard and cherishes their relationship, emphasizing Salman’s generosity and warmth whenever they meet.

Previously, Arjun was reportedly in a relationship with Salman’s younger sister, Arpita Khan, but they allegedly parted ways in 2005.
