Bollywood actor Salman Khan takes friendship seriously. And the biggest of actors will vouch for the fact that it does pay to be in Bhai's good books. We're not talking about the women here though.
The latest actor to be included under his wing is Telugu star Ram Charan Teja - who is currently shooting in Mumbai for the remake of 'Zanjeer'.
A parcel of home-made biryani sent to the sets by Salman, for Ram, is what seems to have confirmed the bond between the two actors. Ram Charan plays Vijay, one of the many roles that Amitabh Bachchan rocked during the early years of his career. While Salman and the Bachchan family may not see eye-to-eye, his fondness for the new Vijay has got a lot of industry insiders talking.
"Salman and Ram Charan are very close. They have been so for a while now. Since Ram is shooting in Mumbai now, Salman has decided that they should catch up as often as possible. The two met for dinner last week at Salman's house. Earlier this week, Salman sent Ram Charan a special biryani to the sets of Zanjeer," says a source.
Actors under Sallu's wing
Pulkit Samrat: Salman took time off to launch the audio of debutant actor Pulkit Samrat's film Bitto Boss, and was also present for the film's preview. He was all praise for Pulkit's acting skills too.
Arjun Kapoor: It was apparently on Salman's behest that Boney Kapoor's son Arjun decided to become an actor. Salman mentored Arjun, who was overweight at the time, keeping a close tab on the actor's progress and guided him through the transformation - from losing weight to grooming, to be an actor. The two may even star in a film together later this year.
Sonakshi Sinha: Sonakshi, who was a fashion designer by profession, turned actress, all thanks to Salman who even cast her in the lead role in his hit film Dabangg.
Preity Zinta: When Salman heard that Preity's debut production Ishkq in Paris was stuck for technical reasons, he offered to play a cameo to help up the film's stakes. Preity tweeted about the progress recently.
