He is the man of his words. Often panned for his odd mood swings Salman Khan won oodles of praise and appreciation
from fans when he went to re-deliver a promise he had made to organisers in Kolkata.
According to sources, Salman had gone to Kolkata on September 26 for a live show but was unable to perform as the
venue was over crowded with his innumerable fans and there was a mad rush which resulted in a stampede.
The event was held at the Mohammedan Sporting Club which could accommodate 20,000 people but over 40,000 fans
turned up there. Consequently, the organisers had no choice but to cancel the show.
That's when Salman promised his fans to rework the show schedule and come back with a bang. The actor will now go
to Kolkata on October 23 and will be performing at the Salt Lake Stadium which has the capacity to accommodate
around 1,25,000 people.
As for the actor he is just too pleased to honour his word, "I am very happy to go back to Kolkata because I had
committed to my fans and once I make a commitment I stick to it no matter what happens. And that is why I am going
back to celebrate the success of my recent release `Wanted` and the launch of my forthcoming film `London Dreams`",
said Salman.
