Salman Khan to work with Pulkit Samrat

He is known to mentor youngsters (like
Katrina Kaif and Arjun Kapoor among
others) in Bollywood. And now, it looks
like Salman Khan has taken yet another
actor under his wing — Pulkit Samrat
(who is engaged to Shweta Rohira, Salman's rakhi-sister).

Pulkit has already been roped in to play the lead in Atul Agnihotri's
political thriller, O Teri.
And now, news is that Salman has signed
on the Delhi lad for his next, Mental,
which is being directed by his brother
Sohail.

"Salman has been impressed with Pulkit
since he did Bittoo Boss, and now with
Fukrey too. So when a role came up that
suited him, he wanted to him to be a part
of Mental. As far as we know, Pulkit has
already shot for the film with Salman in Hyderabad," says an industry insider.

For the past several days, Salman has
been stationed in Hyderabad to wrap up
Mental. Salman had even tweeted a
week ago: "Fukrey Going to see it vil
pulkit one of these days wen he is
shooting vit me heard its amazing he is supposed to be fantastic in it (sic)."

Meanwhile, the shooting of O Teri where
Pulkit will be seen opposite Sarah Jane
Dias is almost over. Only Salman needs to
shoot a song and a few scenes for the
film.
