Salman Hugs Priyanka
The Mujhse Shaadi Karogi jodi met at a recent awards function like long lost friends
The Mujhse Shaadi Karogi jodi met at a recent awards function like long lost friends.
Salman Khan was seen hugging Priyanka Chopra at the Big Star Awards held at Andheri Sports Complex on December 18. The two actors shared great proximity backstage.
An eyewitness told SpotboyE.com, "After Salman and Priyanka hugged each other, the two had a chat which lasted nearly 15 minutes. Nobody went near them to interrupt their conversation."
Once-upon-a-time friends Salman and Priyanka worked together for the first time in the 2004 Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (2004) and also teamed up in Salaam-e-Ishq (2007), before their friendship went kaput. Salman reportedly manipulated things to ensure that his then-girlfriend Katrina Kaif made the heroine's role the starring role in Namastey London (2007). Priyanka was the original choice.
Salman's brother Sohail Khan tried to bring about their patch-up by offering Priyanka the heroine's role in his his home-production Main Aur Mrs Khanna (2009) but Priyanka turned it down (subsequently essayed by Kareena Kapoor). This infuriated Salman.
In 2012, Priyanka who is Salman's sister Arpita's friend visited Salman's house in the middle of a night and the two were said to have cleared the air. But despite that, they never indulged in PDA till date.
A source from the event says, "Hence, Salman hugging Priyanka at the Big Star Awards in presence of many onlookers (fashion-designers and hairstylists back stage were abound) took everyone present there by surprise."
Perhaps this is the outcome of Salman and Shah Rukh having sorted out their differences, last year. Priyanka who was relatively more friendly with Salman's arch-rival Shah Rukh Khan couldn't mend fences with Salman completely in the past.
Sallu and PeeCee (as they are fondly called in the film industry) have not starred together in a film after Salam-E-Ishq. Is this hug going to do the trick?
Meanwhile...
Priyanka is in Maldives to shoot for a commercial, but her visit hasn't got off to a smooth start.
On her way to a hotel, her speed boat hit a coral reef.
The coast guard officials were informed and they reached the site of the accident in a few minutes.
The actress and her entourage were given another boat to proceed to the hotel.
Priyanka escaped unhurt. "But the accident was very scary. Things could have gone really bad if the boat was moving at high speed then," says a source.
