Salman Khan's pain returns, post surgery

Please share Bookmark and Share

Salman Khan who underwent a surgery for nerve disorder trigeminal neuralgia recently is experiencing pain in his jaw again. The pain returned while shooting for Kabir Khan's Ek Tha Tiger in Cuba, reports Mumbai Mirror.

“Salman is feeling a knot in his jaw,” a source from the film unit confirmed to the tabloid.

“Salman is on medication for the same. But he doesn’t worry about it much. People suffer from all kinds of conditions - blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol. This too is a physical condition. This doesn’t mean that it will deter Salman from living his life to the fullest," Salman's friend shared with the tabloid.

Salman Khan's 'painful' storyFor nearly four years, Salman Khan kept his nerve disorder close to his chest and continued to work even though at times he felt an 'electric shock' in a part of his forehead. Salman said he underwent an eight-hour-long surgery for the nerve disorder, Trigeminal Neuralgia on August 31 in the US, though he was initially told it would be only a 30-minute operation.

Before going to US for the surgery, Salman Khan shared with HT's Minkashi Saini about the disease in August last year. “I am suffering from trigeminal neuralgia, a facial nerve problem I have had since the last seven years. But now, it’s getting worse. Ab dard hadd se paar ho gaya hai and I am going to kill it."

Fantastic working with Katrina: Salman

Please share Bookmark and Share

Salman Khan last worked with rumoured ex-girlfriend Katrina Kaif in 2008 for Subhash Ghai’s Yuvvraaj. After almost five years, the duo is now working on another romantic film — Ek Tha Tiger. Bring up their pairing and Salman says, “It has been fantastic working with Katrina after such a long time.”

At the launch of History Channel’s new show History Har Din in the city on Friday, the actor, who is the face of the channel, goes on to joke about his relationship with his co-star in his inimitable style. “I’m working with Katrina, so that’s history been created right there,” he says, in jest.

Though both the actors have recently returned to the country after completing a long shooting schedule of the Kabir Khan film in Cuba, Salman still has some patchwork pending. “It’s a romantic movie, but it has lots of action and I have a few days of work left,” he says, adding that he would love to revisit Cuba soon. “It’s a fantastic place to shoot at. I went to many places during my stay and I would love to go back for leisure.”

Meanwhile, he is also preparing to begin work on Dabangg 2, the sequel to his 2010 box-office hit. “I am going to start shooting for that on March 9,” says the actor, who will be directed by older brother Arbaaz Khan this time. 

Sonakshi Sinha will reprise her role as Salman’s love interest in the film, and Prakash Raj has been roped in to play the villain.

Back from Cuba, the actor drives straight to his farmhouse to celebrate Shiv Ratri and recuperate before starting his next film

Back from a back-breaking schedule in Cuba and a health scare, Salman Khan is seeking refuge in spirituality and some fresh farm air. On Sunday night, Salman landed in Mumbai after shooting for Kabir Khan's movie for Yash Raj, Ek Tha Tiger, co-starring Katrina Kaif. However, he did not go to his house at Galaxy Apartments in Bandra, but drove straight to the farmhouse. He is expected to celebrate Shiv Ratri with his family.

"Salman believes in Lord Shiva as much as he believes in other Gods. Last year was the first time he missed Ganpati celebrations as he was undergoing a surgery in the US for his nerve disorder and he was definitely not happy about that," said Salman's friend.

Most of the Khan family members - including brothers Sohail and Arbaaz are expected to attend the Shiv aarti at the farmhouse. "Salim Khan reached the farmhouse on Saturday. He and Salman are preparing for the Shiv puja.

"The farmhouse has a Shiva shrine. Salim and Salman have renovated it. They have also appointed a pujari who does a small ritual every morning and also maintains the temple," said the friend.

The celebrations will also include Salman's Karjat neighbours. Around 125 villagers have been asked to join in. After the customary fasting, there will be feasting.

While the world knows about Salman's devotion to Ganpati, not many known about his fascination with Shiva.

Salim Khan's family takes Shiv Ratri as seriously as they do Iftaar. On both occasions, thalis heaped with food are distributed among the poor and sent to orphanages, old-age homes, besides friends and relatives.

However, Sallu is in no hurry to get back to the city. "Salman will stay at the farmhouse for about nine-ten days. He will resume work only on March 9, when he starts shooting for his home-production Dabangg 2. A special set is being put up at Kamalistan (Andheri East) for the same," added the source.

A bit of R & R is just what the doctor recommended, right?

Zarine Khan quits song for Salman!

Please share Bookmark and Share

After Deepika Padukone who's being hauled over the coals for her supposed unprofessionalism by producer Ramesh Taurani, it's now Zarine Khan's turn to be pulled up by producer Vinod Bachchan for leaving his film 'Zilla Ghaziabad' in the lurch.

Lashing out at the actress for her unprofessional conduct Bachchan says, "She was finalized to do the item song in my film. Even her costumes were all ready. Then she realized that Vivek Oberoi was in the film. And Salman wouldn't like it if she participated in a film featuring him. What was she doing all the time? Shouldn't she or her business manager have found out details about the project before agreeing to the item song? I had to run from pillar to post to get a replacement at the last minute."

Apparently Zarine opted out as she didn't want to displease her mentor Salman Khan by working in a project featuring Vivek Oberoi.

But an actress close to Salman argues, "She's letting Salman run her life. Does she think Salman would be pleased if she does a check-list of all the people he doesn't like and then stays away from them? By that logic Sanjay Dutt who's very close to Salman should have refused to work with Vivek Oberoi in 'Zilla Ghaziabad'. On the contrary, Dutt has been trying to convince Salman to set aside his differences with Vivek and shake hands. And that's the way it should be. And if she thinks she's being loyal to Salman by not working with his enemies, then she should be rewarded with work. Salman did get her a role in his friend Sajid Nadiadwala's 'Housefull 2'. But beyond that Zarine is yet to benefit from her demonstrative efforts at loyalty."

Vinod Bachchan has apparently suffered losses to the tune of Rs10 lakhs because of Zarine's alleged unprofessionalism. "How can she give up work for personal reasons, and that too when these reasons have nothing to do with her, and when she is practically doing nothing? Today topnotch heroines are vying with one another to get item songs, so they can perform them on stage. Zarine got noticed for her item song in Anees Bazmi's 'Ready'. This could have been her second big item song in a row. Instead she decided to let it go.Very sad."

Bachchan is looking into how to get Zarine to compensate for the losses he has suffered. "We were all set to shoot with her when she pulled this shocker on us. Funnily, Vivek Oberoi is not even part of the item song. Just because Vivek is part of my cast she decided on her own that Salman wouldn't like it if she did our song. Zarine should know that personal equations are not brought into this profession.If she decided to keep away from all the people Salman can't get along with she would be left with very little choices."

Interestingly Salman does carry his aversion to all things Oberoi to his work place. A source close to Sanjay Gupta informs that Salman was pissed off when Gupta had signed Vivek Oberoi for 'Shootout At Lokhandwala'.

Says a source, "Salman had sent a message to Gupta through Arbaaz Khan(who was a part of 'Shootout At Lokhandwala') why Vivek had been signed. So it's likely that he'd get pissed off with Zarine for working in a Vivek starrer."
