Salman Khan, one of the most sought after bachelors in Bollywood, threw a ladies-only bash recently. His co-star Asin Thottumkal, who was present at the event, felt that the many girls were happy to be partying with the Bollywood star.
After the music release of Ready, Salman decided to throw an impromptu bash in his pad that has been created for him at Film City in Goregaon for the shoot of his brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri’s next film, Bodyguard. His Ready co-star Asin and Zarine Khan immediately accompanied the actor.
"Well, it’s true. Salman invited all the female actors from Ready. We all went up to his very comfortable and large pad. It has a garden and a beautiful view. And Salman is a wonderful host. The ladies were all happy to be partying. At which point, suddenly Salman remembered their husbands and then he invited them too," says Asin, who worked with him in London Dreams as well. "It was great fun. I was the odd one out since I don’t drink. After a while it gets boring for both me and the others guests to keep wondering why I am not drinking."
However, Asin was thoroughly impressed by Salman’s bonding with the women in the cast. "All the ladies who play his aunts and relatives just dote on him. He makes them all feel like they are part of his extended family," says the actor, who is taking a break and going home for a while soon. "I’m taking off to Kerala for a couple of weeks. At the moment, I’ve no other Hindi film on hand. So I can afford the time off," she adds.
Asin has apparently been offered everything from Anurag Basu’s Barfee to Sajid Nadiadwala’s Kick. But after films with Aamir Khan, Salman and Ajay Devgn, she’s at the moment looking at projects with a leading man of her own age group. Apparently Asin has been offered Sajid Nadiadwala’s 2 States with Shah Rukh Khan.
