Saiee Manjrekar BREAKS SILENCE on 37-year age gap with Salman Khan in Dabangg 3: “I’m a very thick-skinned person” 37 : Bollywood News
Saiee Manjrekar made her acting debut in Dabangg 3 alongside Salman Khan, portraying the character of Rajjo. Despite the excitement around the film, it faced significant backlash due to the 37-year age gap between the leads—Saiee was 17, while Salman was 54 during filming. However, in a recent interview, Saiee revealed that the criticism did not impact her, largely due to her detachment from social media at the time.

Saiee Manjrekar Was Unaware of the Age Gap Criticism
In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Saiee reflected on her initial experience post-Dabangg 3 and explained how being away from social media shielded her from the negative discussions. “I was oblivious to that discussion because that was the time I had just started, and I had no management, no PR, so I was unaware of all this. I was just happy to see myself on the big screen,” she shared.
She further elaborated that by the time she became active on Instagram six months after the film’s release, the conversation around the age gap had already quieted down. “When I became more active on Instagram, I saw everything that had happened, but since it was something that occurred six months ago, it didn’t affect me as much as it could have. I was in a different stage of my life and career at that point,” Saiee said.
Saiee Manjrekar on Being “Thick-Skinned”
Saiee also discussed her ability to handle criticism. “I’m a very thick-skinned person; things don’t affect me quickly. I’ve always been like that since childhood. Even today, if there is praise, I will be happy, and if someone says something negative, I will take note of it, but it won’t bother me deeply. I’ll just keep going,” she explained.
Dabangg 3’s Mixed Reception
While Dabangg 3 was eagerly anticipated, it received mixed reviews and performed moderately at the box office, becoming the lowest-grossing film in the franchise. Directed by Prabhu Deva, the film’s reception did not hinder Saiee’s career. She was recently seen in Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha, featuring Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Jimmy Sheirgill, and Shantanu Maheshwari.
