Mumbai: Salman Khan may be 59 years old, but many of his fans and well-wishers still want to see him walk down the aisle. Ameesha Patel is not among them.
The actress, who is happily unmarried at 49, wants the most eligible B-town bachelor to stay single.
During a recent interview with Filmymantra Media, Ameesha, while talking about marriages and divorces, shared that Salman is very loving and caring and she doesn’t wish to see him getting married.
“I have seen all kinds of relationships around me; I see harmonious ones like Sanju’s, and then there is someone like Hrithik, who has had a divorce, but he and Sussanne are co-parenting beautifully, and they are the best of friends now. So who am I to judge? Salman is a cool cat and honestly, I don’t want to see him get married; he’s a cool dude, he’s loving and caring, and he is good to everyone,” Ameesha said.
Asked if she is open to marrying Salman, the actress said, “I have to do a complete interview of Salman – ki aap sudhare ho ya nahi (whether you’ve changed or not). He is so loving as a friend that I have never seen him in that light because he has always been my buddy. A very naughty buddy. He plays a lot of pranks on me and even makes me cry. He kept my name Meena Kumari because I keep crying with him. So this is our relationship. I cannot even view myself like that. I am just happy being a good friend to him and the whole family.”
Salman and Ameesha have shared screen space in the 2002 romcom ‘Yeh Hai Jalwa.’ Directed by David Dhawan, the film also featured Sanjay Dutt, Shammi Kapoor, Kader Khan, Rinke Khanna, Rati Agnihotri and Anupam Kher.
The film, inspired by the American movie ‘Carbon Copy’, failed to impress the audience and tanked at the box office.
Salman was recently seen in ‘Sikandar’ along with Rashmika Mandanna and Kajal Agarwal.
He will next be seen with Sanjay Dutt in an action thriller and in Sajid Nadiadwala’s ‘Kick 2’.
