"It's a great opportunity for two countries to come together. All the best," she said about SAIFTA. The press meet was also attended
by John Abraham, Manoj Bajpayee and Suniel Shetty.
SAIFTA, an annual event, will take place in Durban Sep 6 and Saif Ali Khan will host it. "Shootout At Wadala" and "Shootout At
