Superstar Salman Khan arrived in style to exercise his franchise at a polling booth in Mumbai amid the ongoing fifth phase of the Lok Sabha elections.

Clad in his signature style t-shirt and denim, Salman snapped at a polling booth in Mount Mery Convent school in Bandra West, Mumbai. Earlier in the day, Salman Khan's parents, Salim Khan and Salma Khan cast their votes.

Shutterbugs snapped pictures of the pair at a polling booth in Mumbai. A few days ago, Salman had shared a post on X and encouraged people to step out of their houses and cast their vote. Salman informed all that he would be voting on May 20 and expects everyone else to do so for their motherland.

His post on X read, "I exercise 365 days a year no matter what, and now I'm going to exercise my right to vote on the 20th of May no matter what. So do whatever you want to do man, but go and vote and don't trouble your Bharat Mata. Bharat Mata ki Jai (sic)."
