Preity Zinta had a huge crush on Salman

Shah Rukh Khan's not-so-good-friend and rival Salman Khan will be the first guest on "Up, Close and Personal With PZ", SRK's TV chat show to be hosted by Preity Zinta.

Preity chats up with Salman, her co-star in films like "Chori Chori Chupke Chupke", "Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega", "Jaan-E-Mann" and "Heroes", to bring a lesser known side of her star friend.

The first episode of the show, featuring Salman, will go on air on UTV Stars Sep 3. The show is produced by Shah Rukh's Red Chillies Entertainment.

On the show, Preity shares that she had the biggest crush on Salman, and that she was so upbeat about watching Salman's blockbuster "Dabangg" that she went in a burqa to watch it.

Salman too kept up the peppy mood and grooved with Preity on the title track of the show and even posed for a make believe film poster titled "Pyaar Mein Band Bajega Halu Halu" and for this special section Salman dressed as a bandmaster, while Preity as a coy bride.

This is not the first time that Salman has opened a chat show -- he was the first guest on SRK's once a upon a time close friend, Farah Khan's chat show "Tere Mere Beach Mein" as well. He came with his mother. - IANS
