Sallu, Kat: One big family

For those who think Katrina Kaif has severed ties with Salman Khan and his family, there is news. Recently, she arranged a show of her latest film,

Raajneeti

, for Salman’s father, Salim Khan, and the rest of the family.

Talking about the show for Salman’s family, Kaif says, “I wish these speculations on my personal life would end. Salman’s family is the only family I’ve known in Mumbai. That will never change. I wanted Salim

saab

to see

Raajneeti

since he has seen me struggle in Bollywood. He’s so proud of me.”

Raajneeti

director Prakash Jha says that Salim Khan loved the film. “He praised the dialogue, and that coming from him was a compliment. Earlier, Salim

had said that what he and Javed (Akhtar)

saab

written as a cop story in

Zanjeer

was nowhere close to the authenticity of my cop story,

Gangaajal

. He’s a generous man,” smiles Jha.

Salim Khan called Kaif to congratulate her. But Salman, after tweeting that he’d like to see

Raajneeti

and raising Kaif’s hopes, stayed away from the special screening. Salman has not seen a single film featuring Kaif.
