You could've been Mrs Khan, but you chose Ranbir instead: Salman tells Katrina

November 20, 2014

Arpitha khanMumbai, Nov 20: Arpita Khan's wedding is by far the most significant event that has happened to Bollywood this year. All the three Khans face-timed till wee hours of the morning, Priyanka Chopra turned up in a pretty blue sari to prove that all is well between her and Salman Khan, Ranbir Kapoor's conspicuous absence (or not being invited) made headlines and it seems Salman Khan almost confessed that ex-girlfriend Katrina Kaif could have become Mrs Salman Khan but she chose to be with Ranbir Kapoor isntead.

If reports are to be believed, during the wedding, Salman Khan called Kaif to dance with him on stage. The two were to shake a leg on Kaif's song Chikni Chameli, but instead of taking the stage, Kaif hid behind Karan Johar, to avoid dancing.

However, Salman Khan, was not in a mood to let go easily. Khan told Johar to bring Kaif onstage and then went on to say, "Ok fine, not Katrina Kaif. Katrina Kapoor, please come on stage!".

While a very embarrassed Kaif didn't know what else to do but to go on stage and dance to Chikni Chameli, Khan quipped, "Mai kya karoon! I gave you a chance to become Katrina Khan, but you chose to be 'Katrina Kapoor'!"

For all of you who have been buried under a rock for last five years, Katrina Kaif is dating Ranbir Kapoor and media reports are speculating that the two are likely to tie the knot in 2015.

Salman Khan was the one who introduced Katrina Kaif to Bollywood. Although Kaif debuted in Bollywood with Boom, it was Maine Pyar Kyu Kiya opposite Khan that gave her recognition in the film circuit. Rumour mills have it that the split between Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif as well as Deepika Padukone-Ranbir Kapoor happened when Kaif and Kapoor cheated on their respective partners. However, the two have always denied it. Kaif moved in with Kapoor recently.

Mumbai, Jan 4: After the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur constituted a panel to decide whether legendary poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz's poem 'Hum Dekhenge' is offensive to Hindu sentiments, filmmaker Shoojit Sircar had a cryptic take on the burning controversy.

"Best time for the rich & small businesses to make money as most of the population are engaged with a revolutionary poet named Faiz," Sircar said in a tweet.

The poem, penned down by the iconic poet in 1979, came into limelight again recently during the protests against CAA and NRC in IIT Kanpur.

Earlier on Thursday, senior lyricist Javed Akhtar rejected the claims about the poem being 'anti-Hindu'.

IIT Kanpur on Thursday had set up a committee to look into the issue.

The move came after a complaint that the students who took out a peaceful march in the campus on December 17 against the Citizenship Amendment Act and in solidarity with Jamia Millia Islamia students, sung it as a mark of protest, which hurt the sentiments of other communities.

The CAA grants citizenship to Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, Parsis, Buddhists and Christians who faced religious persecution in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and came to India on or before December 31, 2014.
