Recently filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya's cousin Rajjat Barjatya, who was MD and CEO of Rajshri Media, passed away due to cancer in Mumbai. While several B-Town celebrities turned up for the last rites, the one who surprised everyone by being extremely emotional was none other than the 'Dabangg' superstar - Salman Khan.

It's a known fact, the Khan and Barjatya combo has been far more successful as well runs deep personal. Salman and Sooraj have given memorable hits including 'Maine Pyaar Kiya', 'Hum Aapke Hai Kaun' and even the last release 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo'. It was Barjatya's Midas Touch that rocketed Salman to stardom.

Being close to the Barjatya's, Salman naturally was one of those who extended his condolence on Rajjat's demise and also attended his prayer meet at Barjatyas' house on Sunday. Those who were present were quite taken aback to see the usual bindaas, rough-tough, "Bhai" of tinsel town breaking down at the solemn function. Sources found the actor finding it hard to check on his emotions and eventually Salman burst into tears hugging his dear friend, Sooraj Barjatya.

In fact the pics which shows Salman crying at the prayer meet has gone viral. It is really unexpected to see a superstar with such a strong and imposing persona could go weak and put down his guard publicly. Twitter has been since the photos of Salman crying went on rounds. Fans find it unbelievable to see their favourite star in such emotional state.

On Saturday, Salman had expressed his condolence via Twitter by sharing an old pic with Rajjat. Salman who considered Rajjat as his brother, posted, "Rest in peace my brother Rajjat Barjatya".

This shows how 'Dabangg' 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' is so attached to his dear ones. It proves that although he is a tough guy from outside, Salman has a soft heart.
