Mumbai: Salman Khan films are complete family entertainers with little or negligible romantic undercurrent. We have hardly seen him enacting intimacy. He has strong aversion to kissing /performing lovemaking scenes. We know it all.

Salman has never locked lips with any of his female co-stars on screen and we may never see him do so in future. He apparently refused to kiss his former real-life ladylove Katrina while filming  a crucial scene in Tiger Zinda Hai. The filmmakers tried their best to convince Salman to perform the scene but he put his foot down and refused to change his stance.


“Everyone felt that just this one time, just once, Salman would break his no-kissing code because the sequence is vital to the plot and also because, well, it’s Katrina. But Salman refused outright. Director Ali Abbas Zafar tried his best to convince him. However, nothing worked. The scene has been dropped now,” India.com quoted a source as saying.


Salman’s style of romance is extremely gentle with little or no trace of sensuality. He has romanced most of the leading ladies in the film industry – from Madhuri Dixit to Karisma Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan to Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif to Anushka Sharma; but he has never performed intimate scenes with them. Interestingly, his contemporaries - Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan - have done films with intense romantic scenes. Aamir has locked lips with most of his leading ladies while Shah Rukh has enacted a few intimate scenes.


Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, Tiger Zinda Hai is a sequel to 2012 Eid blockbuster Ek Tha Tiger helmed by Kabir Khan. Both Salman and Katrina will return to the silverscreen as Intelligence officers Tiger and Zoya respectively after 5 years. The film is slated to release on December 22.
