A video shared by Arpita, Salman's youngest sibling, showed her doing his aarti and tying a rakhi on his wrist. Salman smiled and looked happy on being part of the celebrations. However, do not miss the painting of the Last Supper behind them too, because the internet did not.

People on Reddit also noticed the same. “Salman KHAN celebrating Raksha Bandhan with Jesus in background.” A person replied, “Rich don't care about all these, it's just normal people who are obsessed with these stuff.”
“Epitome of “Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Isaiah, sab hai bhai bhai,” said another person. ”Bhai is secular," wrote another. A few even got emotional at the scene. “Honestly speaking jokes apart this video is literally what India represents in a true sense lol,” wrote a person.
Arpita's daughter Ayat, also tied a rakhi to Arbaaz Khan's son Arhaan Khan, Sohail Khan's son Nirvaan, and sister Alvira's son, Ayaan Agnihotri.
Salman has four siblings--brother Arbaaz and Sohail Khan and sister Alvira and Arpita. Arbaaz was earlier married to Malaika Arora but is now married to Shura Khan. Sohail also split with Seema Sajdeh. Alvira is married to Atul Agnihotri and Arpita to Aayush Sharma.

Raksha Bandhan is a traditional Hindu festival dedicated to the love and bond between brothers and sisters. On this day, sisters tie a Rakhi around their brother's wrists. In return, brothers offer gifts as a symbol of love and care for their sisters.
Rakhi symbolises a sense of protection. On Raksha Bandhan, the brothers promise to protect their sisters from harm of any kind. This year, Raksha Bandhan is being celebrated on August 28.
