Salman Khan cutely mentions Katrina Kaif at Vikrant Rona trailer launch; showers her with praise

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has been busy with the shooting of his upcoming film Bhaijaan, which was formerly called Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali, since the last few weeks. But he’s also simultaneously gearing up for the release of Vikrant Rona , the Hindi version of which will be distributed by Salman Khan Films. Well, on Monday Bollywood’s Bhaijaan joined Kannada superstar Kiccha Sudeep and actress Jacqueline Fernandez for the Hindi trailer launch event of their fantasy action-adventure film.

Well, something interesting happened at the trailer launch. Salman cutely mentioned his Ek Tha Tiger co-star Katrina Kaif and lauded her for being hard-working. How did the topic come up? While talking to Riteish Deshmukh when Jacqueline shared that she worked hard for the film, Salman stated, “She’s not the only one.” Jacqueline thought he was talking about himself and called him a good dancer too. However, Salman replied, “It’s not about me.” He went on to add, “There's Katrina who has also worked hard.”

Aww! It truly is adorable how fond Salman is of Katrina. The two, who dated for 5 long years before parting ways in 2010, are not only one of the most sizzling on-screen pairs of the Hindi film industry but are also really good friends. They were last seen together in Bharat and are now all set to join forces once again in their upcoming and much awaited film Tiger 3. The spy film, which also stars Shah Rukh Khan in an extended cameo as Pathaan , is the third installment after Ek Tha Tiger and Tiger Zinda Hai in their beloved Tiger franchise.
