Behaviour With His First Wife
While in the United States, his first wife, Samira Jumani, gave some interviews. Salem “was a violent "psychotic man" according to her.”
“He was never a family person. I never led a life I would say I was married,” she maintains.
However, Pramod Mahajan's brother, Pravin, who shared time in prison with Abu Salem, said that "Abu Salem is polite."
Subhash Ghai said in an interview with the Times of India that Salem had called him up asking for the overseas rights of his film Pardes. Ghai noted that Salem was very polite in his conversation and confessed to being a big fan of Ghai's work. When Ghai told Salem that the matter of the overseas rights had already been settled, Salem asked for a copy of the movie, so that he could make pirated copies.

Famous quotes containing the words behaviour and/or wife:
“I look on it as no trifling effort of female strength to withstand the artful and ardent solicitations of a man that is thoroughly master of our hearts. Should we in the conflict come off victorious, it hardly pays us for the pain we suffer from the experiment ... and I still persist in it that such a behaviour in any man I love would rob me of that most pleasing thought, namely, the obligation I have to him for not making such a trial.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“... the wife of an executive would be a better wife had she been a secretary first. As a secretary, you learn to adjust to the boss’s moods. Many marriages would be happier if the wife would do that.”
—Anne Bogan, U.S. executive secretary. As quoted in Working, book 1, by Studs Terkel (1973)
