Sallu protg snags SRK

Salman Khan sacrificed his relationship with his best friend Govinda, when he chose to help Shatrughan Sinha's daughter Sonakshi mark her debut in Bollywood over Govinda's daughter Narmada.

And while Sonakshi has been reveling in her success post Dabangg, thanks to Sallu, her recent career move has got the entire industry questioning her way of showing gratitude towards the actor. Reportedly, the actress has agreed to share screen space with Salman's archrival Shah Rukh Khan in Dabangg director Abhinav Kashyap's next directorial venture.

A source informed us that the film, which goes on floors at the end of the year, is a love story that will be shot in Australia. "Abhinav wants to move away from the rustic action genre of Dabangg to an urban love story in his next.

It is an unusual love story about two people, who meet under extremely trying circumstances. Shah Rukh will play one of his most intensely romantic roles of his career," said the source.

The source added that Sallu's protg, who has ventured to the other Khan camp, does not have any qualms about working with Abhinav, who Salman also had a fallout with during the filming of Dabangg.

Interestingly, Sonakshi is the second girl in Salman's life who dared to cross over.

The actor's ex-flame Katrina Kaif also decided to work with SRK in YRF's upcoming project.

Despite repeated attempts, Kashyap remained unavailable for comment.
