And now, finally both these actors Salman Khan and Emraan Hashmi will come together for the first time on the small screen.
Emraan, as everybody knows doesn’t like appearing on reality shows, but this time around he’s made an exception for the Dabangg dude. The actor has decided to appear on the grand finale of reality show Bigg Boss-6, which airs this Saturday. The episode is expected to be very controversial and historical in Bigg Boss history.
Hashmi will appear on the show to promote his much anticipated super natural flick Ek Thi Daayan. The film’s trailer will also be shown on the episode.
A source said: “Even though Salman has never worked with Emraan, he is very fond of him, and is looking forward to having Emraan on the show to promote his forthcoming movie.”
“Emraan, who didn’t believe in witchcraft till he did this film, plans to ask Salman if he has seen or experienced a daayan in real life.” added another source.
Emraan said: “I am really excited about EK THI DAAYAN, my first major release of the year. It’s my 3rd film with Balaji and 1st with Vishal (Bhardwaj). Launching the film’s marketing on BB-6 with Salman is a brilliant idea. I’m awaiting our first-ever on-air interaction!”

Here’s why Salman Khan defended Shah Rukh Khan…

Here’s why Salman Khan defended Shah Rukh Khan…Mumbai: Industry heavyweights Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have been pitted against each other for quite sometime now. And it’s known to one and all that the two Pathans can’t meet eye to eye.
And hence, when the audiences saw the ‘Dabangg’ superstar batting for his arch rival Shah Rukh Khan on his show ‘Bigg Boss 6’, people wondered if the two had reconciled.
But that wasn’t the case. Post Imam Siddiqique’s remarks on SRK, Salman had been giving the ‘Bigg Boss 6’ inmate a piece of his mind. But Sallu had eventually said that he cannot get along well with his arch rival SRK!
However, when TOI asked Salman why he defended SRK on the reality show, the actor said, “Well, it`s nothing personal here. We work really hard in this industry to become who we are today. There is a difference between what is true and what is not! I just stood by the truth. I also did mention the same about Preity Zinta. I wonder why people are not talking about that!”
We hope the two warring Khans end their enmity soon and probably make an on-screen appearance together too!

Filmmaker Karan Johar and superstar Shahrukh Khan have been the best of pals for years now. And to no surprise, Karan Johar was much expected to celebrate this New Year with Khan. But, what we currently hear was an utter surprise. According to a leading daily, Karan Johar missed out the New Year dinner party at SRK's Dubai residence. As per the reports, KJo was invited by Shahrukh Khan as well as Salman Khan to their respective NYE celebrations. In fact, the daily also reported that Karan flew to Dubai, along with Manish Malhotra, but for some unknown reason, he did not attend the party.

But, unfortunately, KJo wasn't a part of it.

Sher Salman Khan facing a tough time to get a real tiger?




A while ago, it was reported that Sohail Khan's Sher Khan has been indefinitely postponed because of Salman's strange request. Salman demanded a real royal Bengal tiger for Sher Khan. But now, it looks like the cost of creating such a tiger has become too expensive for the Khans. A source informed a leading daily that only creating "the tiger and its action was going to cost over 40 crore, which is higher than the regular production budget of a Salman film, minus his fee". It was reported that Salman Khan was very impressed with the character of the tiger, Richard Parker. He called Sohail and showed him the footage of Life Of Pi repeatedly. Not only this, Salman even asked Sohail whether the tiger that Sohail had in mind would resemble the Bengal tiger in LOP. Later, Sohail promised his brother that till he get such an impressive tiger, real or animated, he would not launch his movie Sher Khan. But now, it looks like Sohail is having a hard time fulfilling his own promise.
