While asked about her friendship with the Pancholis, Rabbiya, a former Bollywood starlet, said, "I know he threw a fit when he came to know about his son's relationship with my daughter. He even told Salman Khan about it, who tried to talk Suraj out of it. But Suraj told him that he loved Jiah and Salman was then cool about it." According to reports, Salman had planned to launch Suraj in his next venture of the remake of old Bollywood movie -- Hero. Speaking about Jiah's wishes to work with Salman, Rabbiya said, "After he (Suraj) signed his debut film with Salman, his body language changed.
