Priyanka: I am very fond of Salman!
Wednesday, 18 July 2007 18:36
A lot of newsprint (and cyberspace) has been allotted to the Priyanka-Salman fight. While Priyanka is supposed to have had a misunderstanding with Salman Khan on the sets of Salaam-e-Ishq , there was another story about the actress having a showdown with the Khan on the sets of a film to be directed by debutant director Prem Soni. However, Priyanka claims that such rumours are baseless. In fact, she’s doing her third film God Tussi Great Ho with the Khan, and she claims the truth is apparent. “I am very fond of Salman,” says Priyanka. “I have worked with him since I was very new to the industry and I owe him a lot. I respect him a lot so I would never have any adverse feelings towards him.”

With the actress being busy with a number of assignments, does she find time for herself, we enquire? “Of course I get time to relax. Everybody gets time to relax, and those who say they don’t are lying,” she laughs. “Seriously, of course some people work twenty hours a day, and I know a lot of those. In fact I used to be one of those but I’ve slowed down a little bit. But relaxing is something that is very mental – it’s all in the mind. You could be physically sitting in a room thinking you’re relaxing, but if you’re constantly thinking, then such relaxing is meaningless.” What did she do when she wanted to relax? “A very therapeutic way of relaxing for me is listening to music of watching a good film or reading a great script,” she reveals.

And what about singing? We hear she’s got a fabulous voice – in fact, we heard she plans to release an album of her own? “No, I have never sung in any of my films, and there are no plans so far for an album. But yes, I want to do something like that in the future, not right now. I am not ready yet.”

Did she do riyaaz everyday to keep her voice in shape? “That is something I want to do before I sing,” she admits.

Now with Priyanka thinking on those lines, don’t be surprised if a filmmaker convinces her to do a ‘ Kya Bolta Tu ’ any day now!
