Director Divya Khosla Kumar says that superstar Salman Khan is her favourite actor but denied her third project is with him.

Asked about her third project after "Yaariyan", and "Sanam Re", which released earlier this year, Divya said: "I am currently planning my next project. You'll soon hear an announcement."

Considering she has often said that she wants to work with Salman, is her third film with him?

"Well, Salman is my favourite actor, but the next project is not with him," she responded.

Divya, who had started her career featuring in music videos, had also shot one with Salman for a song named "Honey Honey". Moreover, when she was planning to make her first directorial, she had plans to approach Salman for the film.

During the promotions of "Sanam Re" when she visited Salman's reality show "Bigg Boss" along with actor Pulkit Samrat, she had directed Salman for an emotional scene and made him dance to the song "Humne pee rakhi hai". The song from "Sanam Re" actually had Divya showcasing her moves and it was termed as her comeback on the big screen.

Divya was present at a special charity dinner on Friday to announce star cricketer Virat Kohli's charity Virat Kohli Foundation's tie-up with another well-known charity, Smile Foundation.

About the initiative, Divya said: "I'm joining hands with Smile Foundation. They're signing me on as a goodwill ambassador and there are a lot of activities that we have planned. So gradually we'll announce that."

She has also acted in the Amitabh Bachchan- Akshay Kumar starrer "Ab Tumhare Hawale Watan Saathiyo".
