Salman Khan played the perfect gentleman at the launch of evergreen Bollywood diva Asha Parekh’s biography The Hit Girl.

The book is a collaboration between Asha Parekh and film critic Khalid Mohamed (author) and Salman Khan has written the foreword to it.

“Asha Aunty has been very dear to us. We lived in the same compound, Helen aunty, my mother, they have all been so close which today’s girls should understand. Saira aunty, Shammi aunty, Sadhana aunty, all of them have been really, really close and you don’t see that anymore. I think that is the best quality about that generation and we have lost that quality,” said Salman.



Then, making a cheeky reference to his own headline grabbing,on-off friendship with Shah Rukh Khan, Salman said with a smile, “We become friends...again but they were never not friends, since the time they came into the film industry. They have always been together. Nanda aunty is not with us anymore but she and Waheeda aunty were the thickest of friends,” continued Salman.



The Hit Girl details the highs and lows of Asha Parekh’s life. The silver screen enigma’s professional and personal victories are sure to make for a riveting read.  Are our modern leading ladies taking note?
