Mumbai: An old video of Karan and Salman is doing the rounds on social media. In it, the superstar at an awards ceremony addresses questions to the director, famed for his tongue-in-cheek show ‘Koffee With Karan’.
During their talk, Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar made actor Salman Khan blush when he mentioned actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
Salman first asked Karan: “Sabse Sacha rumour kaunsa suna hai aapne? (What is the most true rumour you have heard?)”
Karan replied: “Ke aap mujhse pyaar karte hai (that you love me).”
The ‘Wanted’ star then asked: “Ladki banne ka vardaan mile toh aap kis heroine ke tarah banna chahengay? (If you get the boon of becoming a woman, then which actress would you like to become?)
Pat came Karan’s reply, “Aishwarya Rai,” and the entire room burst into laughter.
“Wajah (reason)? Aishwarya Rai Bachchan” said Salman. Karan responded, “Wajah pooch rahe hai aap? Aap pooch rahe hai wajah? (You are asking for a reason…?)”. This made Salman blush, and people could be heard laughing.
Salman and Aishwarya, last seen together in the 1999 romantic film Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, were reportedly dating before their relationship ended in 2002.
In 2007, Aishwarya got married to actor Abhishek Bachchan. They have a daughter, Aaradhya, who was born in 2011.
On the work front, Salman, who was last seen in the film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, will next be seen in Sikandar, directed by A.R. Murugadoss. Sathyaraj, known for his iconic role of Kattappa in the Baahubali franchise, and actor Prateik Babbar will star alongside the superstar in the film.
