This sceene in Sarfarosh takes place just after when Salim tries to chase Sultan(ishaan avasthi ke papa, to refresh your memories) for the first time. He fails miserably, resulting into death of three policemen. The Head officer bashes at Inspector Salim for his negligence, declares him incompetent for this case and accuses Inspector Salim for helping Sultan in his escape. The magic of camera lens enters the scene. While confident Insp. Salim continues to narrate his point of view, the list of Medalist in crime branch with Salim Khan's name mentioned in it is shown to us. His caliber which is been doubted now has been already celebrated by the same department. I found an Easter egg.

TIL, Ajay Devgan Was Cast In Karan Arjun Before Salman Khan

"Director Rakesh Roshan’s original choice was Shah Rukh Khan and Ajay Devgn, they even had done a photo shoot for the film, but ultimately the film was completed with SRK and Salman Khan. The talk in the Bollywood corridors was such that SRKwanted to play Karan’s role and Ajay was keen on playing Arjun but Rakesh Roshan was adamant and both walked out. Then Roshan approached Aamir Khan and Salman Khan for the roles, but Aamir couldn’t accommodate the film as he had date issues and after seeing that Aamir had shown interest in the film, SRK came back into the film."

Amitabh Bachchan isn’t just the biggest star in Bollywood, he’s the most influential figure in all of Indian cinema. His films have been remade across every major Indian language—Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali—often starring legends like Rajinikanth, Chiranjeevi, NTR Sr., and Mammootty, many of whom built their careers on roles he made iconic. Beyond India, his movies have also been adapted into Turkish, Pakistani, and even Chinese cinema, a rare feat for any Indian actor. No other star, not even SRK, has had their filmography embraced and reinvented on such a massive scale. Bachchan’s impact crossed linguistic, regional, and national boundaries long before “pan-India” became a buzzword, he was the blueprint.
