The actor has always managed to dodge the question, when asked by a fan, or an interviewer, or has given the vague most answer possible. It’s his life, his rules, but fans can’t help but be curious about his love life. In a recent inter - view with Mid Day the actor commented that “marriage is a waste of money”. Well, there are a lot of people who’d agree with that, and a whole world of people who’d dis - agree. Salman further talked how he didn’t believe in love either. “I don’t believe in love at all.
