  • Salman Khan's Unfunny Joke On Priyanka Chopra's Dating App Bumble: 'Why Does She Need That Now?'

Salman Khan is going all out for the promotions of his latest film ‘Notebook’. With this project, Salman has welcomed two new newbies in Bollywood Industry: Zaheer Iqbal and Pranutan Bahl.


The 53-year-old, who will next be seen in ‘Bharat’, has lent his voice for a romantic song, "Main Taare for the film 'Notebook'.


During the promotional event, Salman was questioned how about his upcoming love story; in which two people fall in love without meeting each other and how it can happen with today’s generation, where it is all about meeting people through dating apps.


He added that he doesn’t have any of those dating apps on his phone.


Salman revealed several things. But, the most interesting thing was when he said he finds it very amusing that actress Priyanka Chopra launched a dating app post her marriage to Nick Jonas.


When Salman was asked about his views on Priyanka launching a dating app in India, Salman, jokingly replied that why does Priyanka need an app now considering she recently got married to Nick Jonas.


Salman and Priyanka were supposed to work opposite each other in ‘Bharat’, but due to person reasons Priyanka left the project and Katrina Kaif was replaced.


After Priyanka exited ‘Bharat’, Salman's statements indicated that Priyanka had hit a nerve. Salman said: "Whatever may be the reason - be it marriage or picture or her not being willing to work in India or with me, it's her reason and we are really supportive about her doing good work. If she does not want to work with Salman Khan, it's okay; she's working with a big hero in Hollywood".


In order to work with Salman, Kaif even walked out of her dance flick opposite Varun Dhawan. ‘Bharat’ directed by Ali Abbas Zafar will hit the theatres on Eid 2019.
