B-town macho hunk the ‘Dabangg’ Khan Salman Khan is a favourite amongst perfectionist Aamir’s near and dear ones. The emotional Bollywood muscle man never objects to any references made to him by Aamir in his films and takes it very sportingly… Why….? The reason is Aamir’s beloved wife Kiran is a fan of Salman and she just loves the superstar.

She revealed this yesterday at the press meet of her debut flick as director ‘Dhobi Ghat’ and agreed that Pratik’s character in the film wear’s Sallu’s trademark bracelet, he loves working out to build a body like Salman’s and he wants to become an actor like him.

And that’s not all, in the movie Prateik has pin ups of Katrina and pictures of Aishwarya eyes…

Kiran even confessed that initially during the first draft of ‘Dhobi Ghat’, she was actually thinking of casting Salman in a cameo for the film where Prateik becomes a star and meets his idol.

Anyway that didn’t happen for some creative reasons but it added more concrete to the wonderful equation Salman and Aamir share as a friend.

Even Aamir dear nephew Imran is awed by the B-town muscle man’s stardom and he has shared this many times.

Aamir and Salman are true friends…. It must be recalled that it was Aamir who acted as a middleman to cool down the emotions between Shahrukh and Salman during their last year’s spat which has resulted in permanent split between Shahrukh and Salman.

But Sallu can dance sala as he has a friend like Aamir and hard core fans in his dear friend’s locality…
