Salman Khan gave a miniature replica of Taj Mahal, a symbol of love, to American actress Ali Larter .
Before you jump to conclusions let us clarify that there is nothing brewing between the handsome Khan and Larter, who is the co-star of his movie Marigold – An Adventure in India .
While shooting certain portions of the film in Agra, Ali Larter went to see Taj Mahal and was captivated by the monument’s beauty, grandeur and grace. So much that she wanted to buy a marble model of the monument to take along.
Later on, when Larter went shopping in the bazaars of Agra, she was unable to find a replica that had intricate work and finesse to resemble the beauty of the real Taj.
Disappointed, Larter returned empty handed. When Salman came to know about this he rang up his contacts to arrange a good quality replica of Taj for Larter.
And before Larter left for America after shooting the film, Salman gave the model as a gift to her. Larter was reportedly very touched by Salman’s gesture.
‘Marigold’ has Ali Larter playing an American actress who comes to India and gets caught in unexpected circumstances that prompt her to take a role in a Bollywood musical movie. Salman Khan plays her choreographer.
