Katrina Kaif behind Salman-Asin rivalry?

While Asin claims to be having cordial relationship with Salman Khan, media is abuzz the news of their friendship turning sour. During the shooting of 'London Dreams' the chemistry that the on-screen couple shared had become the talk of the town. But recently Salman Khan has been spotted ignoring the actress to the core.

So much so that the eternal bad-boy of Bollywood even refused to acknowledge her presence at a press conference held for the promotion of their flick. Avoiding the actress, Salman walked away from the interview leaving Asin all alone to face media persons.

The reason for Salman ignoring Asin is because their friendship was under constant scrutiny of the media, leading to rumours of a link-up, which was affecting his relationship with Katrina Kaif.

According to a source, "Asin reached the studio at 1pm as scheduled. Salman was unwell as the previous day, he had been to Kolkata where he contracted an allergy. His face was swollen and he had a runny nose. Hence, he was not very comfortable doing the interviews and requested the media guys to reschedule it, but continued to chat with them.

Asin was aware that the joint interviews won't happen, but she refused to move. It was evident that she wanted to meet Salman. She came over from Studio no. 5 to Studio no. 6 to sit beside Salman.

To everyone's surprise there, Salman did not even greet her. In fact, he completely ignored her. She sat there for sometime but Salman simply refused to speak to her. Then he got up and left. Asin had no option but to leave after that. She was left wondering what went wrong between the two 'friends'."

The news has been denied by Asin who said that they are traveling together and attending the premiere in the same limo.
