Mohit Chauhan's Song Moves Salman Khan to Tears on Diwali Night

'Tum Se Hi' and a Hug

Mohit Chauhan enters the stage singing 'Tum Se Hi', his beloved song from Jab We Met, and hugs Salman Khan. ABP Live reports Salman praising him, saying, 'Your songs are very soothing.' The performance is part of the show's Diwali celebrations, with Mohit arriving as a special guest for the festival episode.

A Bigger Fan of His Father

Mohit then tells Salman, as TellyChakkar reports his words: 'Sir, main aapka toh bahut bada fan hoon, par aapke papa ka main usse bhi bada fan hoon.' He asks Salman to sing 'Mujhe Tumse Mohabbat Hai, Magar Main Keh Nahi Sakta' — and when Mohit sings it himself, Salman is visibly moved, his eyes welling up. ABP Live reports that the contestants watching also became emotional.

Why This Song Matters

The song comes from the 1963 film Bachpan, in which Salim Khan appeared as an actor before he became one half of the Salim-Javed screenwriting duo. TellyChakkar reports it was sung by Mohammed Rafi, composed by Sardar Malik and written by Hasrat Jaipuri. TellyChakkar also cautions that the promo does not reveal exactly why Salman became emotional — whether it was his father's early acting days or a personal memory — so the reason is not confirmed here.

More Music Tonight

The episode's precap, as reported by JustShowBiz, has Qazi Touqeer presenting Salman Khan's movie songs, with Mohit Chauhan and Harrdy Sandhu performing the songs. REPORTED: India Times reported ahead of the weekend that Jasmine Sandlas was also expected to perform during the Diwali special — she did not appear in Saturday's episode, so her appearance tonight is unconfirmed.
