Superstar Salman Khan compared his "Kick" co-star Jacqueline Fernandez with yesteryear's glamorous actress Zeenat Aman. The Sri Lankan beauty says it was the "biggest compliment" but confesses being under "tremendous pressure" too.
"Now I am under tremendous pressure because he compared me to Zeenat Aman. I told him not to do it, not say that again," the 28-year-old said here Wednesday at the launch of 'The Great Indian Wedding Book."
However, she is flattered with the compliment.
"But that was the biggest compliment I have ever received in my life," Jacqueline said.
If reports are to be believed, for the first time Jacqueline, who has done about half-a-dozen Hindi movies including "Race 2" and "Murder 2", has dubbed for her character in "Kick".
"Dubbing for the film was very tough. Actually Salman was the one who gave this idea and I think it's been amazing," Jacqueline said.
"Kick", which marks producer Sajid Nadiadwala's directorial debut, also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
It will release this Eid.
