While Salman Khan's rumoured girlfriend Iulia Vantur has always maintained discretion in India, her interview in Romania created waves...

In this season of break-ups, Iulia Vantur's prolonged absence from India gave rise to speculation about her alleged relationship with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan biting the dust. Adding more fuel to fire was an interview she gave to a Romanian media portal which indicated that she had to change her lifestyle to adjust to Indian culture. And just when it looked like yet another chapter of Salman's love life has come to an unfortunate end, Miss Vantur discreetly slipped into India well in time to be part of Helen's birthday celebration where the entire Khan family including Salman was present.

So are they on again? "They never broke up in the first place," informs a source and adds, "Iulia went back to honour her professional and personal commitments. Also, she was away from home for a long time and it was the perfect time to meet her family and friends. She had accompanied Salman for the shooting of Tubelight. Post that he got busy with Bigg Boss and Iulia has already been on the sets of the show in past and decided she could use this time to visit her hometown for a much-needed break. But she was always in touch with Salman and his family."

." I started to sing in Hindi and took singing lessons. I worked hard for many years and it bothers me that only my private life has been discussed. The last time I stayed in India for five-six months, it indicated a lot of things that I do not want to address. But the Indian mentality is really different, the culture, the people. Everything is different. You do not have as much privacy because you stay with many people in one house. I also did not realise that I had to dress a certain way on the streets. Now, I understand that my clothing was too low cut," Iulia had said in the interview.


Dissecting the interview, our source says, "What she said is how Indian culture is different from Romanian one. That doesn't mean she couldn't adjust here. If that is the case she wouldn't have been back. Salman's family is a cosmopolitan one. Women are treated with utmost respect and they have the freedom to do what they wish. It's about dressing in public that she is talking about in the interview. Iulia has great regard for Indian culture. She understands it well now and is acquainted with all important occasions which are the reason why she posted a picture of Karwa Chauth on her Instagram."

The only line of discord was apparently stuck when reports of Iulia having already married Salman appeared and many on social media and back in her own country started addressing her as Mrs Khan. "That was a distressing moment for Iulia as she couldn't fathom why such gossip reports alluded to her. And that what she meant when she said in her interview - when I was in India, neither did I marry, nor did I part ways with anyone. God forbid!".

So will Salman and Iulia ever marry? "For the moment, there is nothing happening on the marriage front. Salman has to make up his mind. He does have plans of settling down. When that is for him to decided. And knowing him, one could well expect surprises soon."
