In the film, Priyanka plays an item girl who is obsessed with filmmaker Karan Johar . She wants to work with him. So fixated is she in getting a break with Johar that she adds an extra ‘k’ to her name, Kkamini.
Nikhil Advani says he was earlier toying with the idea of roping in Karan for a cameo in the film.
Nikhil directed his first movie Kal Ho Na Ho for Karan Johar’s company Dharma Productions. After that he broke away from the production house, but he insists that there are no cold vibes between him and Karan.
Throughout the making of ‘Salaam-e-Ishq’, Nikhil got “moral and creative support” from Johar. In fact, Johar even allowed two songs that were originally meant for ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’ to be used in ‘Salaam-e-Ishq’.
By the way, this is not the first film in which Karan is playing an inspiration for an actress. In last year’s Home Delivery , he played his real self who is pursued by the movie’s hero (Vivek Oberoi) and heroine (Mahima Chaudhary).
