One of Bollywood's most eligible bachelors, Salman Khan has admitted having a lady love in his life - his "Kick" co-star Jacqueline Fernandez. Recently, the superstar jokingly gave her his surname Khan, and made her blush when he revealed his admiration for her.
While this is the first movie that two are doing together, they seem to have hit it off really well. They made a joint appearance to promote their film "Kick" on Zee TV's "India's Best Cinestars Ki Khoj".
Making an entry on the show, Salman introduced Jacqueline as 'JFK' on the sets, said a source.
When the show's hosts - Vishal Malhotra and Hussain Kuwajerwala - quizzed him about Jacqueline being called 'JFK', Salman decided to keep mum while Jacqueline blushed.
Putting their thinking caps on, the two thought that Salman was probably making a reference to John F. Kennedy. When they tried reasoning this with Salman, he was quick enough to tell them that it stood for Jacqueline Fernandez 'Khan'!
While Jacqueline couldn't help blushing at this comment, Salman just laughed off any further questions.
Pampering her to bits on the sets of the show, Salman constantly ensured that his on-screen lady love was comfortable at the shoot. Having limited understanding of Hindi, it was quite difficult for Jacqueline to get some of the acts and give comments in Hindi. This was when Salman would jump to her rescue.
He would help her with a few important Hindi words that he'd whisper in her ears each time.
"India's Best Cinestars Ki Khoj" airs every Saturday and Sunday.
