Salman finally breaks his silence about Jiah-Sooraj's affair

Mumbai, Jun 17: Salman Khan is upset that his name was unnecessarily been dragged in Jiah Khan and Sooraj Pancholi’s relationship. He said that he has nothing to do with their love affair and most importantly, he came to know about their relationship through a news magazine. He said that his full sympathy was with Jiah’s family but he disliked that Jiah’s motHero Rabiya Khan dragged his name in this whole controversy

"I was not even aware of Suraj and Jiah`s relationship. I got to know of it through a news magazine," Salman Khan said.

After Jiah Khan committed suicide, her mother Rabiya Khan told to police that Salman Khan has intervened between Jiah and Sooraj’s life and he persuaded Aditya Pancholi to distance his son from Jiah.

The ‘Dabangg’ star said that he never had any conversation with Aditya Pancholi asking to interfere in his son’s relationship. He finds the debate very ridiculous. He doesn’t know why his name was roped into the entire affair.

Salman said that he sympathizes with Jiah’s family and added that he has his own life and problems and has no time to think about other’s life.

Salman’s manager said, "We won't like to give any statement about this episode".

When asked why Jiah's family gave such statement about Salman, she responded, "You should ask her (Jiah's mother Rabiya Khan) this question."

Sooraj Pancholi who is in police custody in Jiah Khan’s suicide case was to debut with Salman Khan and Subhash Ghai’s movie, ‘Hero’ which is a remake of blockbuster ‘Hero’ staring Jackie Shroff and Meenashi Sheesadri. Sooraj has been cast opposite Suneil Shetty’s son Athiya Shetty.

With Sooraj being involved in Jiah’s suicide, time will say whether Salman Khan will reconsider his decision about casting Sooraj.
