Salman Khan has a new woman in his life. Surprised? Well, we aren't talking about his latest affair. The bratty Khan has found a great friend in his Marigold star Ali Larter and he is making no bones in admitting that they share wonderful vibes.

Ask him about Ali and pat comes the reply, "We vibe well with each other. But, when I met her for the first time she gave me a very frosty-nosed look. I got an impression that she didn't like me. In fact she didn't even talk to me properly."

Salman says that he met her for the first time in one of the restaurants in Mumbai. "She might not have liked so many people treating me as a big star. When I entered the restaurant, she didn't greet me warmly. But over the period, while working together in the film, we developed a very good friendship."

Friends forever: Salman Khan and Ali Larter

"Now we are so close to each other that she does not hesitate to seek advice from me."

Not only this, the generous Salman Khan is acquainting Ali with the ways of the film industry as well. Says he, "I have familiarised her with many things in Bollywood. She doesn't know how film industry functions here. She is quite inquisitive about our culture, tradition and rituals. She wants to visit Indian and know it as closely as she can. I am really impressed with her."

Says he further, "I like people who show interest in India. I am happy that we are getting along so well. She has told me that she will be in touch with me even after our professional relations get over."
