In the world of Bollywood, Emraan Hashmi has long been associated with the tag of a “serial kisser.” He is known for incorporating kissing scenes in almost all of his films. This reputation has become a trademark of his filmography with a few exceptions. On the flip side, Salman Khan, a stalwart in the industry, has maintained a different image. Salman, known for his family-friendly films, has never engaged in an on-screen kiss with any of his leading ladies, citing a sense of responsibility toward his audience.

During an episode of Koffee With Karan in Season 4, Salman expressed his perspective on on-screen kissing, stating that it is “not fun” for him. However, at the recent Tiger 3 Success Meet in Mumbai, where Salman, Emraan Hashmi, and Katrina Kaif interacted with the audience, Salman revealed a different facet of his approach.

Salman candidly confessed that he refrains from on-screen kissing out of respect for the sentiments and feelings of the audience. He emphasized the importance of maintaining a balance, doing more action and less romance to cater to a family audience. Salman playfully mentioned that since Katrina is part of the film, a bit of romance is inevitable. He went on to jest that while he was never into kissing scenes, it seems Emraan Hashmi is letting go of that habit.

In a lighthearted moment, Salman staged a mock kiss with Emraan, who blushed in embarrassment while Katrina watched with amusement. The camaraderie between the actors added a playful touch to the success celebration. Directed by Maneesh Sharma, Tiger 3 has achieved remarkable success, crossing the ₹300 crore mark globally since its Diwali release on November 12. The film continues to captivate audiences with its high-octane action and engaging storyline.
