Admitting that working with the Dabangg man wasn't really a cakewalk, director Kabir Khan told Mirror, "I will be honest. It took time for Salman and me to come on the same page. There were teething issues on how we look at the scenes and his character."
This reintroduction has however, required a lot of planning. "Salman reports on the sets on his own time. He does not start his day early. And he was clear about it before we went on floors. But once he is on the sets, he is all yours till you wrap up. So well, you just have to plan your day with him intelligently," explained the director.
When asked about the reports of a tiff between his lead actors over a particular costume, Kabir explained, "Katrina and Salman go back a long way. He was very involved in their scenes together and her costumes. They have a certain equation. Even Salman seeks her opinion. But yes, there was an incident where they disagreed over Katrina's costume in the song. It was over a particular cut in the black blouse she has worn with a yellow skirt."
After all, the director revealed, "Salman has had a say in many things that have gone into Ek Tha Tiger." A dress is perhaps just a small part.
