Superstar Salman Khan, currently busy promoting his forthcoming production "Hero", will be seen crooning the song "Main hoon hero tera" from the film in the forthcoming episode of dance reality show "Dance +".

According to a source from the set, Salman, who visited the show's set on Thursday along with the film's actors Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty, was elated with the performances and even shook a leg with the show's host Raghav Juyal.

"Salman was taken aback with the impromptu jokes and gags by Raghav. He was rather surprised to know that the anchor is also an actor and has bagged appreciation for his role in 'ABCD 2'," the source said.

"To test Raghav's dancing skills, Salman came on stage and asked him to dance on the tunes of Salman's song 'Main hoon hero tera'. Salman was not only shocked by Raghav's dancing style but also ended up doing slow motion dance with him," the source added.

"Dance +" features ace choreographer-filmmaker Remo D'Souza as the 'Superjudge', along with captains Shakti Mohan, Dharmesh Yelande and Sumeet Nagdev.

The episode featuring Salman, Sooraj and Athiya will be aired on Sunday.

"Hero", which is directed by Nikhil Advani, will release on September 11.

Jason Tham gets nostalgic after shooting in Delhi

Choreographer-actor Jason Tham, who will be seen as agent Bikram in TV show "Agent Raghav", got nostalgic when he visited Delhi while shooting for a few episodes for the new crime-drama series.

Jason, who was born in New York and brought up in Delhi, remembered his childhood days while he was in the capital earlier this week.

"Jantar Mantar is one of the most prominent tourist places but for me it's a flashback of my childhood. I have come here so many times with my family and friends and every time I would stare at every structure here with great wonder.

"All of them still have the same effect on me. In fact, more since I hardly get to see them now," Jason, who currently resides in Mumbai, said in a statement.

Jason has previously appeared in shows like "Dil Dosti Dance" and "Dosti... Yariyaan... Manmarziyan".

"Agent Raghav", which will feature actor Sharad Kelkar in the title role, will premiere on Saturday on &TV.
