Ye kya dekh rahe hain hum ! Our very own Salman Bhai Khan, not looking his buff best ? Now, whether it’s his long hibernation in Cuba (where he’s been shooting for Ek Tha Tiger) or his health issues, Salman has put on a visible bit of weight, and not in the most flattering spots. At a recent event in Mumbai, the actor’s biceps were not as taut as usual, his face seemed puffy and his physique heavier than usual.


Now, that’s quite a departure from the Khan who made “bare-chested” a genre in Bollywood. “Bhai hasn’t been working out,” a source close to the actor admitted. “Due to health problems and a packed schedule, he hasn’t been able to train properly. But he intends to shed the flab and get the perfect toned body in time to play a supercop in Dabangg 2.”


With the Dabangg 2 schedule looming ahead, Salman Khan has just about 10 days to get back into fit mode. The buzz is that he has already been put on a high protein diet and is working out twice every day. “It’s impossible for an actor to have a super-toned body all the time. But knowing the fitness freak Salman is, there’s every chance he’ll be back in shape within 10 days,” a celeb fitness trainer said. We sure hope so! After all, it wouldn’t do for his enemies to be fitter than Chulbul Pandey, will it ?

Salman Khan dressed casually in jeans and button down shirt to attend Ritesh Deshmukh’s brother Dheeraj’s wedding to Honey Bhagnani at Hotel Grand Hyatt in Kalina, Mumbai Monday afternoon, February 27, 2012.

Honey is the daughter of producer Vashu Bhagnani and sister of actor Jackky Bhagnani. Salman is close to the Bhagnani family.

Salman, 46, wore dark blue jeans, a contrast collar shirt and black dress shoes. He looked lean and fresh sporting short swept back hair.

He was accompanied by sister Alvira Khan and her husband Atul Agnihotri. Ritesh received the Khan posse on its arrival.

Salman, who recently returned from over a month long shooting schedule in Cuba for YRF production’s Ek Tha Tiger , had missed Ritesh and Genelia D’souza’s wedding on February 3.

He later gave the newly weds a surprise honeymoon package as their wedding gift.

Salman Khan’s frenemy Shah Rukh Khan, who attended the Ritesh-Genelia wedding, was a no show at the Monday wedding, as he is away in London filming for Yash Chopra’s yet to be titled film with co-star Katrina Kaif.

It’s amazing how the two warring Khan’s effortlessly avoid each other.

Other Bollywood celebs attending the Monday wedding included Jackie Shroff, Shilpa Shetty with husband Raj Kundra, Diya Mirza with boyfriend, Zayed Khan and wife, Akbar Khan, Taurani brothers, Subhash Ghai with wife and Abhishek Kapoor.

Salman will begin filming for brother Arbaaz Khan’s film Dabangg 2 from March 9.

It not only Bollywood that’s going gaga over the action star, Salman Khan has found a new following among TV channels too. News is that all the three top TV channels in India – Star, Colors and Sony-desperately want Salman on their shows.

While Sony is keen on retaining Salman 'bhai'(brother) as the famous host for ‘Dus Ka Dum’, which insider say the ‘Dabangg’ hero is not too charged up about, Colors want him back on the ‘Bigg Boss’ next season thanks to the TRPs his presence garners.

Salman Khan is a superstar in Bollywood and likewise, he's become the most bankable star in the world of endorsements. No wonder, the superstar’s demands of eight crores in eight hours was readily met by an ad maker, whose initial choice was cricketer Yuvraj Singh.

The commercial was to showcase Yuvraj as a brand ambassador but due to his bad health, Salman Khan stepped in. Fully aware of his market value and fan following, the makers of the commercial, without giving a second thought agreed to his quotation.

Salman is the hot-favourite amongst all the television production houses and channels too. Sony Entertainment Channel is keen to bring him on board for Dus Ka Dum, Colors for Bigg Boss season six and Star Plus for a new reality show.

There is more than one reason why we think the Dabangg actor should lap up the opportunity to bring out the dark side inside him.


We don’t know how true this fresh piece of goss is, but just hearing it got us excited. And if it does come true, it will make things really interesting. According to trade buzz, Yash Raj Films has big plans for the Dhoom franchise. Apparently, Vijay Acharya, the write and director of Dhoom 3, has been using his free time (Dhoom 3’s shooting schedule has been pushed to mid-2012 because of Aamir Khan’s over-packed diary) to complete the script for Dhoom 4. And what he has come up with has impressed the big bosses sitting on the fourth floor of the Yash Raj corporate office. Not only have they locked the script, but it seems that Aditya Chopra has even figured out who will play the villain in the new edition. It could be YRF’s new fave superstar Salman Khan! Yes, the original bad boy of B-town is Adi’s choice as the villain in fourth part of the slick thriller.


Whether the Dabangg dude agrees to play the bad guy’s role remains to be seen but we think Sallu bhai should totally take this one up, if he is approached. Firstly, Salman has never played a bad guy on screen. Secondly, it would be refreshing to watch him show more than the straight-face comic expressions that he has been associated with after his recent successes. And thirdly, the superstar is known to be deadly in real life and it shouldn’t be tough for the actor to bring his dark side out for the screen. Also, since he admires Aamir, who is already doing Dhoom 3, Salman shouldn’t mind following suit. And the best part is that Salman can still let his shirt rip open and show off his six-pack abs ! Exciting, right?

Film-maker and actor Satish Kaushik’s last biggest hit on the box office was the Salman Khan-starrer Tere Naam. Many critics felt that it was also the film that made Salman regain his box office stature. Radhe, his character in the film, became an instant hit and his blunt hairdo was being sported by every fan. And now, Satish is working on a sequel to the sad love story. Satish, in a chat with After Hrs, said, “I am working on the sequel of Tere Naam.

The first edition didn’t have a definite end. Now I want to take it ahead, by revealing what happens to Radhe after the tragic end. I am still working on some ideas and after it is complete I will show it to Salman. Tere Naam 2 can’t happen without Salman.”

Ask Kaushik if he will be playing Calendar in the Mr. Indiaremake and he says, “I will love to! It is one of the best roles I have done in my career. But there is a lot of confusion about the film as of now. But I’m sure that most youngsters have grown up watching
Mr India.”

Apparently, Aamir Khan had a word with Salman Khanand bagged the Eid 2013 slot for Dhoom 3. But Aamir is not the sole reason why Salman has decided to forfeit an Eid release in 2013. We’re told that Salman will be playing baddie in Dhoom 4, which will probably release during Eid in 2014 as the script has already been locked. That’s not the end of the Dhoom saga. A source from YashRaj tells us that Aditya Chopra along with director Vijay Acharyaaka Victor are already working on Dhoom 5, which will releasein 2015-16.

MUMBAI: Katrina Kaif is nearly done with Cuba. Plans to shoot the last critical action scene of Kabir Khan’s Ek Tha Tiger in Sri Lanka have now been changed. Some in the unit think the Sri Lankan jungles are unsafe.

The location for this climactic stunt is now being shifted to Bangkok.

Says a source close to the project, “Salman and Katrina will complete all their action scenes in Cuba. Only one very important action scene remains. And for that a jungle location was required. The unit had decided to shoot in the densely forested interiors of Sri Lanka where Ram Gopal Varma had shot his horror film Agyaat. But when Salman got to know it was dangerous territory with the LTTE (Liberation Tigers Of Tamil Eelam) being active in that area, he put his foot down and suggested a change of venue.”

Apparently the climactic stunt is now being shifted from the volatile Sri Lankan jungles to the relative safety of Bangkok.

Excerpt from BOC

It seems like the year 2012 will turn out to be very lucky for Bollywood's real life ex-couples. While Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone are busy brushing up together to gain their lost love back, long time former lovers Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif are in their own world, possibly reliving their past in Cuba, along with their film's shoot.


Salman and Katrina are currently shooting for the film Ek Tha Tiger together in Cuba. Reports suggests that Katrina has been taking care of her ex-beau Salman quite well, despite their break up. Speaking about Salman's health, Katrina informed a leading daily that Salman has been fit and fine for last few months and there are no such worries about his health currently.


Further speaking about Salman, Kats said that she has learnt a lot from Salman when it comes to her Bollywood career. Katrina, who is no more in a relationship with the actor now, still shares a great friendship and chemistry with him. She was also a part of Salman Khan's family for quite a long time now.

Salman Khan is known for his big heart and has always been in the news for his Being Human Foundation and Good Deeds and this time the Macho man does it on the sets of Ek tha Tiger at Cuba.

Salman Khan is currently in Cuba shooting for a film. The unit has been there for almost a month and they have been missing their loved ones.

Given the cost of ISD calls not everyone can afford to be in touch with their family and friends back home. Sensing this Salman ordered for bulk international sim cards and gifted them to crew members. Now they can't stop singing his praises. Now thats something amazing Salman !

Bollywood is full of insecurity, I am comfortable with who am I and I m very comfortable in my films. On competing with Ranbir, Imran says, "If Ranbir's films are doing well, it does not affect me. Ranbir is fine actor. If you see Salman Khan has been giving huge hits but that doesn't affect Aamir's Mamu career. Everyone has a place of his own in the industry and I'd like to create one. I've heard Rockstar was phenomenal. I am glad it was."

Ranbir and Imran both are the Charm of Bollywood and they are future Superstars.

On his birthday, astro-numerologist predicts that from Salman Khan's upcoming films in 2012, 'Dabangg 2' will be a step ahead of 'Ek Tha Tiger'.

He may have done some serious wrongs in his real life in the past, but nothing can take away from the fact that people are just 'Ready' to accept the 'Dabangg' man in any avatar. On the eve of his birthday, we ask astro-numerologist Bhavikk Sangghvi to find out what's in store for Salman Khan - the most charismatic star of Bollywood for the upcoming year 2012

Bollywood has scored yet another high. "Dabangg 2" has beaten " RA.One" and others by fetching an all time high price of 140 cr.

Salman Khan has not only topped the Times' 50 Most Desirable Men lists. He is also the king of Bollywood. The Bollywood business just went through the roof.

Thanks to the advent of multiplexes and over 12000 single screens across India, Hindi cinema has been bettering its collections every quarter.

"Agneepath" just joined the 100 cr club today, though the producers advertised it two days ago. Now news has come in that Salman Khan's Dabangg-2 has been picked up by UTV Motion Pictures for an unheard of 140 cr including the print and advertising costs.

Says trade consultant Amod Mehra, "This just proves Salman Khan's supremacy as the leading actor."

''Dabangg-2" has beaten "Ra.One". For the longest time the trade gup was that "RA.One" was sold to Eros International reportedly for 150 cr. However the producers later issued a statement saying that the official figure is under 100 cr.

"If that is the case then Dabangg-2 is the leader," says Mehra. "Once again Salman has beaten the competition hollow."

Salman Khan, who is riding high on the success of his movies, is also facing a setback when it comes to his health.

Now, the actor has decided to put a hold on his projects and give priority to his health as Salman will be going to USA for a health check up and examine his brain aneurysm.

Salman is currently shooting with Katrina Kaif for 'Ek Tha Tiger' in Cuba.

He is planning to go straight to the US from Cuba, reports IndiaTv.

The actor is going to examine the size of the aneurysm in his head which is affecting his health. The doctors have treated trigeminal neutralgia that the actor was suffering in the past.

The brain aneurysm is resulting in an abnormal swelling of an artery. Salman’s future projects and its schedule will be based on the check-up of the actor.

Salman will return in March and start shooting for home production 'Dabangg 2'.

The SRK-Shirish Kunder brawl might have shocked the entire tinsel town, but there is someone sitting miles away from the nation who has definitely taken real pleasure out of the entire maad dhaad episode. It's none other than Shahrukh Khan's age-old rival Salman Khan, who is currently shooting thousands of miles away in Cuba for his film Ek Tha Tiger. Salman might not have been a part of Agneepath success party thrown by his friend Sanjay Dutt, but he is infamously a reason for the fight. We all know how Shirish Kunder have been snubbing SRK since the latter's film Ra.One did not do well in the Box Office. Shirish and Farah have vocally showed their support for Sallu after SRK-Salman fall out. In fact, if eyewitnesses are to be believed, Shahrukh also dragged Salman Khan into the spat with Shirish. Interestingly, Salman got in touch with Shirish as soon as he got to know about his spat with SRK. Also, the duo exchanged few messages. Majority were in SRK's support since all felt that Shirish has been too provocative and, hence deserved it.
