Bhagyashree recalls Salman Khan’s playful behavior
Bhagyashree shared in an interview on Kovid Gupta Films’ YouTube channel, “Salman came and sat right next to me and started singing the song into my ear.”
She added, “He had always been such a gentleman on set and so nice to me that I couldn’t understand. It just seemed like crossing the line into flirting, and I thought, ‘Why is he doing this?'”
She further elaborated that Salman continued this behavior, followed her, and sang to her, which left her puzzled.
Finally, Salman revealed that he knew about her relationship with her boyfriend Himalaya and suggested that she invite him to the set.
This gesture led to a special bond between the co-stars, with Salman and director Sooraj Barjatya even representing her side during her wedding, as her family did not attend.
Bhagyashree’s funny misunderstanding with Sooraj Barjatya
Bhagyashree also shared a light-hearted moment from the set that showcased the camaraderie among the crew.
She recounted how she and Salman used to tease director Sooraj Barjatya in a joking manner. At one point, they joked that her parents had arranged for her to marry Sooraj, which led to a misunderstanding.
Bhagyashree said, “Raj Babu, Sooraj ji’s dad, knew my dad socially. He called up my father and said, ‘Aapse milna hai, main apne bete ko leke aa raha hoon (I want to meet you, I’m bringing my son along).’”
Her father thought they had made a plan, but then he realized they were talking about a film.
