Katrina Kaif - Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya With Salman Khan Was Special

Katrina Kaif reminisces the fun time spent with Salman Khan on their first film together Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya (2005) because of the laughter they shared, and the way Salman made her feel comfortable despite being a newcomer.
"We had loads of fun while shooting. The scenes were so funny that we'd be laughing our heads off between shots and try to keep a straight face while shooting. Thankfully for us, the audience also found the film as funny. And it went on to become a big hit," Katrina told Mumbai Mirror.
Even though Katrina made her debut in 2003 film Boom featuring Amitabh Bachchan and Gulshan Grover, the film was a flop. She had a cameo in Ram Gopal Varma's Sarkar, but she tasted success with Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya in which she had a full- fledged role.
They went on to work together in Partner (2007), Yuvaraaj (2008), cameos in Hello (2008), Tees Maar Khan (2010) - a song with Salman and now the upcoming Ek Tha Tiger which headlines the two.
"Acceptance was important for me. I was still the outsider with no knowledge of Bollywood. Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya was important to me. Though later Salman and I came together for other projects, Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya was special. Perhaps because it was our first time together. Everyone associated with the project was very happy for me."
"It's very important to make a newcomer feel at home. Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya did that for me."
Soon after their first film together, the two became very close and though they did not admit it became a couple. They reportedly broke off sometime in 2009 but continue to be good friends.
