Salman Khan is all set to entertain the audiences with his first release of this year ‘Bharat’. The film, that stars Katrina Kaif opposite Salman, is directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. Today the song launch of ‘Zinda’, the film’s first promotional event, was attended by its lead actors. And Salman was seen in a very jovial mood, casually pulling his co-star’s leg and making funny comments.

Interestingly, today at the event, Salman once again took a subtle dig at Priyanka Chopra. For the uninitiated, PeeCee walked out of ‘Bharat’ just a few days before the film went on floors. Later, Katrina Kaif came on board and the makers were happy with the final outcome of the film.

During the media interaction, when Katrina was quizzed about her experience and preparation for her role, the actress said, “As an actor, I think it is definitely my most incredible experience working with Ali.. we have done three films together,  but I can honestly say that this film has been the best experience so far and I think we have got super super excited for everyone to see the film.” Suddenly interrupting Katrina, Salman said, “Thank You Priyanka.”  And that was enough for everyone to have a hearty laugh at the event.

Though Salman keeps taking a jibe at PeeCee, they are great friends and continue to be so. Salman had even attended the reception party of Priyanka and Nick Jonas’ wedding. Ali Abbas Zafar too had said that he doesn’t hold any grudges against Priyanka because she left the film for personal reasons (her marriage with Nick).

Coming back to ‘Bharat’, the film is all set to hit the silver screens on June 5.
