Salman Khan’s offer of a whopping Rs 2 crore for a rare-breed horse has been rejected by the owner. It turns out that the owner of the horse - Saqab - is actually a tough nut to crack as the Bollywood actor is not the only person, who got rejected. A year ago, Punjab’s Badal family had offered Rs 1.11 crore to buy Saqab, but received a negative response. Initially known as Tufan, and then as Pavan, it is now named Saqab - “horse that was ridden by Prophet Muhammad”. Originally a Sindhi breed, Saqab’s mother was of Pakistani-Sindhi breed, whereas its father was from Rajasthani-Sutharwali breed.
