One minute they are locked in bashful fun, and the next they are taking potshots at each other. Or at least, one of them is.


Dating a superstar doesn’t get more complicated than this.


As ex-lovers Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan attempted to give Bollywood break-up traditions a matured twist by reuniting on-screen, four-and-a- half-years since they ended their romantic sojourn, only to get caught up in another emotional drama of their own.


They were caught, on camera during the promotion of their new movie ‘Ek Tha Tiger’, being indifferent to one another. “During an interview for a leading Indian television channel, the interviewer was caught unawares when Salman and Katrina wouldn’t look at each other,” reveals a crew member. “Salman kept looking elsewhere while she talked. He was even blowing bubbles and mocking her.”


Although Kat took it in the chin, her discomfort was clearly evident.


His strange behaviour was consistent in other televised interviews as well. “It amazes me how Katrina puts up with it. He’s so temperamental.


It’s tough to comprehend what he is up to. One minute he is laughing and the next, he’s walking out in a huff,” claims another media personality. Wonder if his sudden change in mood was triggered by reports of Katrina’s secret date with Ranbir Kapoor, just days ahead of the ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ release.


“Salman is known to be possessive about his women, so his behaviour could be an outcome of those stories,” reasons another film source.


It got to a point where Katrina refused to do any more promotional work with Salman under the pretext of poor health. “He had to return to the studios of the same TV channel to meet his fans, but without his lady by his side. Surely she was not going to take things sitting down,” adds the crew member.


“Katrina isn’t someone who makes a hue and cry about such cases, so she preferred to stay away from the madness.”


Salman, however, attempted to salvage the situation by praising and complimenting her for getting this far in Bollywood on her own. “His efforts did make an impact as we soon caught images of Sallu and Kat enjoying an evening out with his family. They were together, and there was no love lost,” informs a reporter.


Another shoot for a dance telly show caught them getting cozy, leaving the audience rather confused. “Does this mean they are back together? Are they just a dysfunctional couple?” asks many fans. Clearly he is unable to let her go, and she is unable to say no because he is, in fact, the person who made her a star. If you recall, Salman and Katrina were once a hot couple, until his ego took a massive blow when she refused to give up her new-found celeb status to set up his home.


Her sudden meteoric rise to fame from a damsel in distress into a famed star was something that Salman hadn’t quite planned, nor had she.


Soon, rifts in the love story appeared despite talks of their marriage making the rounds.


Salman was seen throwing tantrums and giving her the royal snub at the promotions of their then box-office turkey ‘Yuvvraj’. “He even refused to sit next to her during the press meet in Mumbai,” recalls an entertainment reporter. “And, all the while she just smiled her way through.”


Many news reports later emerged that it was her proximity to a new-star- on-the-block that had triggered the worst side in Salman, and their eventual break-up.


They did make rare appearances for telly shows, and for random item songs, but the uneasiness was there for everyone to see.


Wonder if the success of ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ will trigger another round of romance, or not.

Mumbai, Jul 28: Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Manoj Tiwari has urged Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray to look into the case of actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death and direct the state police to register an FIR in this connection.

Wishing Thackeray on Monday on his birthday, Tiwari, who has acted in Bhojpuri films, pointed out that over 40 days have passed since the death of Rajput, but an FIR is yet to be registered.

"Many happy returns of the Day @CMOMaharashtra Shri Uddhav Ji, on this day I request with folded hands to give justice to Sushant who died 43 days ago, but no FIR has been registered so far. I hope you will help. Please do justice to millions of SSR fans," he tweeted.

Bollywood actor Rajput was found dead at his Mumbai residence on June 14, which the police said was a case of suicide. His death had triggered an outcry from several quarters alleging that the late actor, who hailed from Bihar, was a victim of nepotism in the film industry.

The lawmaker from Northeast Delhi's Lok Sabha seat, who visited the deceased actor's family in Patna last month had then said: "Sushant's father and sister requested me to take up the issue and get him justice. It was really a sentimental moment for me".

Previously, Tiwari had demanded a CBI investigation into the matter

According to the police, statements of 40 people including film critic Rajeev Masand, director-producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and filmmaker Aditya Chopra and actor Rhea Chakraborty have been recorded in the investigation so far.

Mumbai, May 12: Superstar Salman Khan on Tuesday released his latest romantic single "Tere Bina" featuring Jacqueline Fernandez while in quarantine at his Panvel farm house.

The actor, along with close family and friends from the industry, including Iulia Vantur, Waluscha De Sousa, is living in the farm house. This is the second song Salman has released amid the coronavirus pandemic, after "Pyaar Karona."

"About seven weeks ago, when we came to the farm, we didn't know we will be here under a lockdown. So we wanted to do things to keep ourselves busy. That's when we decided to do these songs. We launched 'Pyaar Karona' and now, we are launching 'Tere Bina'," Salman said in a statement.

The song, sung and directed by Salman, is composed by his friend Ajay Bhatia and written by Shab bir Ahmed.

The actor said he had the song "Tere Bina" with him for quite a while but because it wasn't fitting into any of his film, he decided to release it now.

Jacqueline said she didn't think they would be able to shoot the song, which they finished in four days of evening shoots, with such limitations.

"We are used to shooting songs on a large stage with grand production costs. There are costumes, hair, make up. All of a sudden, we find ourselves with a team of three people. For the first time, I was checking lighting and moving props around. It was a great experience and it taught us how to make the most of what we have," she said.

Salman recently sent out food packets and ration from his farm house to those affected by the lockdown.

Kochi, Jan 6: A trial court on Monday framed charges against Malayalam film actor Dileep and other accused in the case of alleged abduction and molestation of a south Indian actress in 2017.

The actor and nine other accused were present in the additional special sessions court in Ernakulamwhen the charges were framed against them.

All of them have denied the charges.

On Saturday, the Court had dismissed a plea filed by Dileep, seeking to exclude him from the list of accused.

The Court had admitted the prosecution argument that there is prima facie evidence against him in the crime and dismissed the plea of the actor, who is eighth accused in the case.

The court had also not allowed a plea by the actor to grant him 10 days time to file the appeal in a higher court in the light of the Supreme Court order in November 2019 that the trial should be completed in six months.

The court is hearing the case in-camera.

On December 19, Dileep, along with his lawyers and a technical expert, had examined the contents of the electronic records at the closed room of the court.

Earlier, the Supreme Court had directed that the actor be allowed to inspect the records to enable him to present an effective defence during the trial.

In February 2017, the actress was allegedly abducted and molested by the accused.

Seven people, including the key accused 'Pulsar' Suni were arrested in connection with the actress' abduction case.

There are 10 accused in the case.

The entire act had allegedly taken place in a moving vehicle, which was filmed by the accused to blackmail her.

Dileep was subsequently arrested and arrayed as an accused in connection with offences under provisions of the Indian Penal Code and IT Act.

The top court had directed that the trial in case be concluded expeditiously, preferably within six months from the date of the judgement.

A woman judge is hearing the case.

In February 2019, the High Court, while considering a plea seeking to transfer the case to a Sessions Court headed by a woman judge to conduct the trial, had ordered the CBI special court Judge-III Ernakulam Honey M Varghese to complete the trial expeditiously.
