Does Katrina Kaif talks about Salman Khan with Shahrukh?

Mumbai: Katrina Kaif has all the luck because she gets 'protection' from not one but two Khans even though her protectors are themselves rivals.

According to reports, while shooting for their film in London, Shahrukh Khan was so caring about Katrina that he assigned his own bodyguards to keep her away from overzealous fans. Katrina is believed to have not employed her own bodyguards while shooting for an untitled romantic film under Yash Raj productions.

London being her home, Katrina loves travelling without security but due to her immense popularity among the sizeable number of Indian community, she needed some protection. That was when the 'large hearted' SRK decided to provide his own bodyguards for her safety.

Not only this, reports say that Shahrukh also asked his team to get some warm clothing for Katrina to beat the chilly London weather.

Buzz is that Katrina has grown close to SRK to the extent that she discusses her personal life with him. We wonder if she mentions her other 'protector', Salman Khan, in her conversations with Shahrukh.

She looked ravishing in a bright red gorgeous saree styled in Maharashtrian way and standing alongside Mr. Bachchan, she answered media's questions.

When asked if she wasn't supporting Kolkata Knight Riders this time around as last year. The actress however gave a smart reply as she said, "I have many Bollywood friends who own IPL teams. There is Preity, Shilpa so I am going to be cheering for all of them."

Priyanka and Shahrukh Khan's friendship not only ends in personal front but on professional front also. She has been highly targeted by stars wives as well as filmmaker Karan Johar. Karan who is a bosom friend of Priyanka did not like the rumor that has been doing about SRK and the actress and has blamed the actress for using PR machinery to justify her stand.

On looking all those facts, it can be assumed that in future, it's very hard to see SRK, Priyanka together on-screen.
