Salman Khan’s Brave Fight with Brain Conditions

Bollywood star Salman Khan revealed on The Great Indian Kapil Show (21 June 2025) that he is dealing with trigeminal neuralgia, a brain aneurysm, and an arteriovenous malformation (AVM). Experts empha

During a June 2025 episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, Salman Khan revealed his ongoing battle with three serious health issues: Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN), Brain Aneurysm, and Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM). TN causes intense facial pain and earned the nickname "suicide disease." AVM and brain aneurysm involve tangled or bulging blood vessels in the brain, increasing the risk of bleeding, stroke, and severe complications. These conditions often coexist and can worsen with stress, high blood pressure, and strenuous activity. Salman continues to work and stay active while avoiding extreme exertion.

His openness raises awareness about these conditions, encouraging others to seek medical help if they experience symptoms like severe headaches or facial pain. Other celebrities like Varun Dhawan and Amitabh Bachchan have also publicly shared their health struggles, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment.
