THE RUMOURS:
1 Salman Khan wants ex Katrina Kaif back and was wooing her with flowers, phone calls and SMSes.
2 This week, the buzz is that Kat wants to be back in Sallu's life!
THE FACTS: Katrina's Tees Maar Khan tanked. Dostana 2 is on the backburner. Her film with Hrithik Roshan is complete. Ayaan Mukherjee's film with Ranbir Kapoor has Deepika Padukone in the lead. She has no film with any of the Khans. All that remains, is a Kabir Khan project for Yash Raj with Sallu in the lead.
But to bag that role, she needs to patch up with her ex, at least professionally, as he has the last word in the matter. She has sent him several texts and has even asked Sal's sis Alvira Agnihotri to put in a good word, irritating the actor's family and friends to no end.
THE REASONS: While Katrina is a YRF favourite, Sallu is calling the shots for this particular film. To get the actor on board, Aditya Chopra visited him at his residence several times to persuade him to do the film. Kabir went to Pune on the sets of Bodyguard to convince the actor. So, Sallu's choice will matter.
THE NAYSAYER: The actress' friend says, "She is in touch with Kabir but his film hasn't been offered to her. She remains fond of him but they haven't been in touch for months now. She was even offered Alvira's Bodyguard but she refused as she feels they need some time and space apart from each other before they can do another film together again."
