Aayush also shared that there was a time he didn’t have the money to even buy breakfast for himself because his father was against his decision to become an actor. He shared, “When Antim (2021, also starring Salman Khan) came, I was here only at Ayaz (a restaurant in Bandra). I have a backstory of Ayaz. When I had just Rs 20 on me, I had my last meal there at night. After that, I didn’t have the money for breakfast. It’s the time when my father was against my decision to become an actor. I was at Ayaz, having a roll, and I got a call that the satellite and all the other rights of the film were all sold. When I heard the price, I wasn’t happy that Antim was releasing and we were going to make money, I was happier because hisaab kitaab barabar (accounts were settled) and that we had made a profit. Until then, I had a pressure on my head that a family member’s money was stuck.”

Aayush married Arpita Khan on November 18, 2014. They are parents of two kids – daughter Ayat and son Ahil. The actor added that now he’s not bothered with what people have to say and is focused on giving his two children a good upbringing. He said, “Salman Bhai is such a beautiful person. He never even mentioned the money part to me, he never said, ‘tumhare vajah se mere itne paise dubb gaye’ (because of you I lost so much money). But in my heart, I knew that I had a loan on my head. We made money in Antim’s pre-sale and we made a profit and that’s when I sighed in relief. I wasn’t bothered about the box office, I was like, whatever it has to be, we’ll see. I was happy that I didn’t have the pressure that maine paisa dubbaa diya, I had cleared that.”

He concluded, “So, for the people who think that main Salman Bhai ka paisa udaata hoon, I have never taken money from him. But I don’t need to justify it because whether I say this or not people will continue to say that I am lying. But now, it doesn’t bother me, to be honest. What matters to me is can I pay the school fees for my children, can I give them a good home, good upbringing. I want to be a capable father to them. If people think I take money (from Salman) then I wouldn’t want to say anything to them.”
