Salman Khan, Deepika Padukone

Salman Khan and Deepika Padukone are the biggest stars in Bollywood and various attempts have been made to get them in a movie together, but it has never worked out. The two get along rather well though and according to a report on Mid-Day, Salman even delayed a shoot to talk to her. Salman was shooting for an ad in Bandra with Jacqueline Fernandez, but he put it on hold to chill with Deepika who was present at the same studio. Here’s what a source close to the publication had to say –

While getting ready to face the camera, Salman was told that Deepika was also shooting on the same floor. So, he decided to meet her and they ended up chatting for a long time. The socializing led to an almost two-hour delay in his ad shoot. Jacky, too, reached late for a press meet for the ninth season of dance reality show, ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’, which she is judging.

The source added that this friendship is rather new –

Salman and Deepika were not too friendly earlier, but after meeting each other at recent social events, they have struck a rapport: “They came close to be cast together on a few occasions, but their pairing has, so far, been jinxed. But, with Deepika now likely to work with Salman in ‘Tubelight’, they are bonding big time.

Awesome!
