Screenwriter Salim Khan, the father of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, is set to be discharged from Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital on Tuesday morning after a month-long stay. The 90-year-old was admitted in February due to age-related ailments and underwent a procedure called DSA after experiencing a minor brain haemorrhage.

During his stay in the hospital, Salim Khan received regular visits from family members, including actor sons Salman Khan, Arbaaz Khan, and Sohail Khan. Industry friends Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan also paid a visit, while Salim's longtime friend and former screenwriting partner Javed Akhtar was among the visitors.

Salim Khan began his film career in the 60s as an actor before focusing on writing, teaming up with Javed Akhtar to form the famous screenwriting duo Salim-Javed. Together, they wrote 24 films, 20 of which were phenomenal successes.
