Salman Khan is on a make up spree these days. Many of his close friends believe that Salman at 40 is now mature enough to let go the old grudges and start a fresh inning in Bollywood.

We got to see his softer side just a few days back and must admit that it shocked us like many other journos present there. His recent change of attitude was visible to one as he calmly fielded questions even about his ex-girlfriend Ash with whom he shared an extremely volatile relationship.

Salman alleged that very often he is misunderstood to be brash and blunt and often his personal life is splashed across the tabloids. As for his prior relationship with Aishwarya Rai, the star claims that he does not believe in bad mouthing anyone and so he remains silent and is also ready to accept all the blame.

Salman even said, "I don't mind doing a film with Aishwarya."

When queried about how many girlfriends he had in the past, the normally hot-headed Salman kept his cool and politely answered all the questions on his personal life.

Salman also claimed that he is friends with the other two Khans of Bollywood, Aamir and Shahrukh. He claims that they even call him up during his time of crisis and are always willing to lend him support.

Salman says "They do call me, but I myself tell them not to come out in support of me for you might land in trouble yourself."

Salman claims that while Aamir and Shahrukh are the King and Badshah of Bollywood "I am the joker of the pack."

According to the buzz, producer Vinay Kumar Sinha who produced the comedy Andaz Apna Apna with Salman and Aamir in the lead is interested in now making a sequel of the film with the two stars.

The two Khans broke apart when Aamir went ballistic and declared that he would never act with Salman again. The buzz was that Aamir was not willing to put up with Salman's so-called temperamental and errant ways.

Whatever be the real reasons for the two falling apart, Salman has never commented on the issue while Aamir has remained categorical that he would not accept any role with Salman.

But Sinha is making an all-out effort to ensure that Raj Kumar Santoshi gets to direct the duo once again in a movie, after a long hiatus. The move is aimed at reinventing the magic that Salman and Aamir wove in Andaaz Apna Apna.
