Contrary to the intelligent speculation in the press about Salman's post-incarceration activities, the mega-star hasn't taken a holiday after the Jodhpur experience.

"I think Bhai has rested enough in Jodhpur," laughs Salman's devoted brother Sohail. "He's eager to get back to work. He's concerned about the delay in the Rock Stars concerts and is making every effort to get his schedules back on the track."

Rather than rest , Salman has been busy rehearsing rigorously for Rock Stars, as much as six hours every day, since his return from Jodhpur. "It's almost like a junoon for Bhai. This feeling of commitment going awry is troubling him," says Sohail.

In fact Salman will be doing his level-best to make up for lost time. Next month when he goes into the Rock Stars concerts he will also be shooting for David Dhawan's Partner with Govinda, Katrina Kaif and Lara Dutta which is a home production.

Reveals Sohail, "The schedules for the concerts have now been worked out. The first five shows that were supposed to happen in April have now been moved to the end of the tour, that's all. During weekends he'll be performing at the concerts. Weekdays he'll be shooting for Partner."

The Partner crew will shoot with Salman in Canada wherever it's convenient for him to fly down.

"We'll first shoot with him in Vancouver and then later in Toronto when the concerts would be closer to that part of Canada," reveals Sohail.

This must be the first instance of a whole crew following an actor to shoot wherever convenient for him! The work permit that Salman has been granted after the bail is most likely to be extended beyond June.

"In fact between July and December Bhai shoots for just one month in India. The rest of the schedules are all abroad," says Sohail.

Says Sohail, "We're just happy to have Salman Bhai back. Mom is now back at home, completely recovered."

About the news report that Salman wants the toilets in the Jodhpur jail to be renovated, Sohail says, "Yes, it's true. Bhai is keen to do what he can for the inmates. He has seen the conditions they live in. He even wants to install ceiling fans in the prison. But the authorities feel that would excessive. So yes, the toilet renovations are definitely happening."
