Salman Khan has over the years earned respect for the kind of love and support he gives to people around him.

Be it fans or newcomers, the actor has always lent a helping hand. After all, they don't call him bhai for nothing! Having introduced composers like Himesh Reshammiya and Sajid-Wajid or for that matter, turning mentor for stars like Katrina Kaif and Arjun Kapoor, Salman's generosity has come to the rescue of many. Yet again, the actor has lent his full support to launch his Maine Pyaar Kiya co-star Bhagyashree's son Abhimanyu into Bollywood. Though the two did just one film together, they have been maintaining their friendship till date.

No surprises as to why Salman has been bestowed with the title of Godfather.
