Bollywood superstar Salman Khan extended his congratulations to Shahzaib Rindh of Pakistan after he defeated India’s Rana Singh in the final round, leading his country to victory in Karate Combat 45.
Salman, often referred to as the Tiger of Bollywood, was present during the match, which saw Pakistan and India face off in one of the tournament’s most eagerly awaited battles.
After the fight, Salman and Shahzaib shared a light-hearted conversation, during which Salman humorously asked, “Great fight. Do you knock out everywhere in 20, 20 seconds?”
The two shared a laugh before Shahzaib introduced Salman to his brother, who was capturing the memorable moment. They then posed together for a photo.
“@beingsalmankhan it was an honour to fight in-front of you boss watching you since childhood. Love you bhaijan ❤️ Thank you bro @abdu_rozik you are such a good person@basitrind5,” Shahzaib posted on his Instagram account.
It’s important to remember that the high-stakes battle was ultimately decided in the last round, following victories by Pakistan’s Rizwan Ali and India’s Himanshu Kaushik in the first and second matches, respectively.
The event kicked off with Pakistan’s Rizwan Ali going head-to-head with India’s Pawan Gupta in the first round. Rizwan had little difficulty defeating his opponent, with Gupta soon finding himself on the mat after Rizwan delivered a knockout in the first round.
Pakistan was leading 1-0 before India’s Himanshu Kaushik took on Faizan Khan in the second round. If Pakistan had won that round, they would have clinched the match. However, Kaushik managed to defeat Faizan, who stepped in for Uloomi Karim after he was disqualified for missing his weight by five kilos.
With the match tied at 1-1, it all came down to the final round where Pakistan’s captain Shahzaib Rindh faced off against India’s Rana Singh. Rindh’s relentless attacks from the start of the match cornered his opponent, and he ultimately won the fight with a technical knockout decision.
Following the fight, Rindh entered the ring waving both the Pakistani and Indian flags, symbolizing his desire for peace between the two nations.
