Salman Khan's proclivity to take in female newcomer co-stars under his fold is well known.
This time, the film is Bodyguard and the PYT is Anglo-Indian Bollywood debutante Hazel. Inevitably, Salman's protective instincts and Hazel's nubility are in play.
Hazel plays the role of Kareena Kapoor's friend in the film being produced by Atul Agnihotri, Salman's brother-in-law.
A source from the production unit tells Mid-Day that Salman and Hazel seem to bond really well on and off set.
Salman is reported to be helping Hazel with her dialogs as she has a strong British accent, but there is more to it.
"Hazel is a British model and has a very heavy Brit accent. She is full of attitude, just like Sallu. They hit it off well from the word go," says the source. "She is very tomboyish and rides dirt bikes. One day, after finishing the shoot, the actor decided to bike ride with her from Symbiosis Lavale to their hotel in Pune, Marriott. Hazel was riding the bike and he sat behind her. Their chemistry is visible even in the pictures."
When quizzed about Hazel, Agnihotri played coy, "All I know is that her name is Hazel and her mother is Indian and she has moved to Bombay. She plays one of Kareena's friends in the film and will be seen in the college sequences."
Agnihotri says Hazel wasn't taking Salman for a bike ride; instead Salman was teaching her to ride.
Oh! Salman! When will you ever learn that even when you are teaching them young girls are still taking you for a ride. Listen to what your father tells you! They are looking for a career, and you for an ever elusive wife!
The first schedule of the film was shot in Pune. The film is currently being filmed in Bangkok
