Salman Khan has essayed a romantic hero in umpteen films, but the actor, who makes his female fans go weak in the knees, says he never felt the need to kiss on screen because he finds it uncomfortable.

The "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" star, who's now awaiting the release of "Prem Ratan Dhan Payo" spoke of many things about his personal life on hotstar Originals' show "M Bole Toh".

Upon being asked by the show's host Husain Dalal about the reason behind not kissing on screen, Salman said: "I am very uncomfortable. I'm not shy but I just don't like it. I just don't think there's a need to kiss on screen. Jis din aisi need hogi, kar lunga. But abhi tak to mujhe aisi koi zaroorat lagti nahin hai to kiss on screen (Whenever there is a need, I may do it. But I haven't felt the need yet)."

Salman and Sonam, who will be soon together in the Sooraj Barjatya directorial, shared many other thoughts about his film, star families, fan mails and first crush.

The superstar also went into flashback to recall working with Barjatya in "Maine Pyar Kiya" and "Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!".
