Bollywood hunk Salman Khan turned nurse for Asin who fell ill while shooting for their upcoming film 'Ready'.

The actor who is reuniting with the Southern beauty after their 2009 film 'London Dreams' made sure that she got plenty of rest and ate her medicines on the sets of the film.

"Salman was extremely caring right through the shoot of 'Ready' and especially when I was ill. I caught an infection and even as I continued to shoot, I was on constant medication. Salman made sure that I ate properly, " the actress said.

The 'Dabangg' star kept a constant tab on his leading lady, who was down with an infection during the last days of the film's shoot. Asin's mother, who is a doctor, prescribed her medicine and it was Salman who made sure that she ate them on time.

"In a hectic day of shooting, one tends to forget taking medicines but he was always there to remind me of taking them on time. He forever kept checking that my fever was under control. That was so nice of him, " said the 25-year-old actress.

The actress who debuted in Bollywood opposite Aamir Khan in the 2008 hit 'Ghajini' said that Salman, 45, is a really "cool" co- star. The two stars had been linked in gossip columns while they were shooting 'London Dreams' and after his reported break-up from Katrina Kaif, the stories are circulating again.

"I am fond of Salman. Since we are working together in 'Ready' again, we spend a lot of time together. I understand the value and importance of a comfortable professional relationship and am well aware of how people perceive coming together of two actors, " said the actress.
