It’s a dream debut for Sooraj because none other than Salman Khan is mentoring this newbie (and has been for some time now!) Salman has also asked his own manager Reshma to look into Sooraj’s work as well. Wow! Now that really is something, don’t you think? Even when Salman isn’t around physicially, he makes it a point to call Sooraj and check on him regularly. The last actor Salman mentored with such keen interest was Arjun Kapoor – who is a big star today. Will Sooraj follow suite?

Apparently, Salman retells stories from his life to inspire Sooraj and sometimes the calls are so long that the phone has died on them.

Sooraj must really be enjoying all the attention! What do you think?
