When Bhumika Chawla called Salman Khan ‘Salman Bhai’
Mumbai (IANS) | Actress Bhumika Chawla, who enthralled the audience with her portrayal of Nirjara in ‘Tere Naam’ opposite Salman Khan, has reunited with the Bollywood star after almost 2 decades. Both will be seen in ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’. The film is scheduled to hit the theaters on April 21. The actress, who made her Hindi film debut with Salman, is happy to reunite with him after 20 years.
The actress said that Tere Naam fans often ask when will Radhe and Nirjara come together. ‘Tere Naam 2’ may take time, but they can see me and Salman together in ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’.
The actress recalled a past incident when she publicly called the superstar Salman bhai. The actress said, “When we went for the audio launch of ‘Tere Naam’, I called him ‘Salman bhai’ on the stage.
The whole country worships him by this name, so initially I used to call him Salman bhai and he used to tell me, ‘You can call me Salman’. Even during the making of this film, till 70 per cent of the shooting was done, I used to address him as Salman sir. She then said, ‘You can just call me Salman’.
The actress also spoke about late Satish Kaushik, the director of ‘Tere Naam’. He shared, his demise came as a shock to the entire industry or the entire nation. A few days before he passed away, I saw several of his social media posts in which he mentioned that he has started working a lot. He was moving towards a fitter lifestyle and when something like this happens you realize life is just a bubble.
