Asked about his arogance ...he replies : " My spirits were extremely high after the super success of Hum aapke hain kaun.
  Now it has doubled because of Karan Arjun , Jeet , Judwa , Hum saath saath hai , Jab pyar kissi se hota hai , Pyar kiya to
   darna kia ,etc., having swampered the country for the past years. The Salman craze is still there. Everyone should enjoy
                        failure.I have enjoyed failure. Success without failure is tasteless.

 Asked why he distrust the press ...he replies : " No.In general , when I read my interviews later, I am deceived. Personally , I
                               do not think that the press is that important."

 He was shooting bare chested on the beach , looking at every passing girl .He says that he is always like that at home.He is not
 the like to accept the advice of others. " I am like that ,'' he says smiling. If you ask him to wear something, he will do exactly
                      the contrary. " I don't like people to force me doing things I don't like.''

 He sleeps few hours , whiling the nights in night boxes, and comes to shooting late. To this he says : " I am a professional who
                           will honour his engagements , once the contract signed."

             Concerning the awards he says: " I am not interested in these awards...I don't believe in them."

               At the shooting, Salman stays apart ." I am concentrating on the senario like everybody .''

                          Now and then he will smile to his fans ." I do like my fans."

               The competition at bollywood is heating up but he has no fear." I fear nobody but God."

        And concerning Hrithik Roshan who can endanger his career , he adds : " Oh he's dam good , very good."

  And the words for his fans : " I love them all. If they want to see Salman Khan , they see Salman Khan, I don't want to force
 them. And when they see Salman Khan , it doesn't mean that they don't have to watch everybody else, they watch everybody
                                              else..."

 Salman Khan is a typical commercial films hero.To this he replies: " I do not like the concept of an art film because when you
   want to pass a message to the people, this does not please them. If you make a film for money , you have to entertain the
  people. In today's life ,there is too much stress. People do not come to watch a film for being depressed. On the contrary ,
            they enjoy themselves and I thing this is better. However , commercial films too have messages."

 Now, Salman Khan decides to take his lunch.He approaches the table but to his surprise the plates are empty." No worry, I 'll
 fing something else." Actually his lunch was at anither table reserved by Sajid Nadiawalla , his producer and long term friend.

               From his 30 released films experience, Salman has retained that " nothing lasts forever."

What Sajid Nadiawalla has to say about Salman :

 " Once he's heard the script and is convinced about it , he doesn't interfere at all. He never comes late , never cancels shoots,
 never throws tantrums. He has no ega problems or any fixation with five-star hotel and meals. He mingles freely with the unit.
      Even his man Friday , his driver and his secretary are so well mannered and polite that it's a refreshing change."

         To remind you that the two have worked together for Judwaa and Jeet and that HDJPK is their third film.

What Preity Zinta has to say about Salman :

  "Lots of people say bad things for him.From the time we have been working together , I have no bad souvenir of him. As an
 actor , he is intelligent .He improvise much on shooting and the most important thing about him is that he is not selfish. He has
 helped me very much and he will never try to steal your line or a scene to glorify himself during shooting.What plays against him
 is that he has a dark sense of humour. I think it is great time to accept people as they are.We can not change him. I have seen
                             his humanitarian side : he helps many poor people."

  [From the press Salman receives the money he gives to the Tata Memorial Cancer Hospital. in Mauritius he is supporting a
                                    cause for handicapped children.]

      In HDJPK she plays Jhanvi , the girl friend of Salman. The two will also appear in Chori Chori Chupke Chupke.
