As for her home after marriage, Katrina sure believes in traditional values as she has stated that she will go to her husband’s adobe post wedding. “I’ll get married and go to my husband’s home.

Eros International announced that Salman Khan starrer – VEER in its opening weekend, has had gross collections of Rs. 41 crores worldwide at the box office. VEER did a first weekend business of Rs. 32 crores (Rs. 19.50 crores net) in India with Rs. 9 crores coming in from overseas. Salman’s last hit WANTED netted Rs. 17.25 crores for the same period.
An Anil Sharma film, VEER, starring Salman Khan, Mithun Chakraborty, Jackie Shroff and debutant Zarine Khan released across cinemas worldwide on 22nd January 2010. The film released with 1,300 prints & digital cinemas all over India and 236 prints overseas.
A spectacular treat for Salman fans, VEER has emerged a high grosser in circuits like Rajasthan, Delhi/UP, Bihar, Gujarat etc. with the single screens doing good business over the weekend, which again demonstrates Salman Khan’s power to connect with the masses.
Nandu Ahuja, SVP, India Distribution, Eros International Media Ltd said, “Audience reactions to VEER have been extremely heartening.

With the opening weekend followed by the Republic Day holiday teamed with Salman’s star power, we are looking forward to the film’s positive run at the box office”.

Salman Khan has his fingers in too many pies. He’s an actor, a painter and now he’s even penned a story for Veer. Interestingly, it was on the sets of this film that a hidden skill of Salman the painter came to the fore – his knack for painting with his fingers.
We hear that in between the shots on the sets of the movie, Salman would get his fingers smudged with paints and create exotic, spiritual faces on canvases.
Producer Vijay Galani was particularly struck with Salman’s nifty finger work. Not just the canvases, Salman also helped the film’s art director in painting the sets.
And now that the film is set to release on January 22, we hear that Galani is thinking of putting up for auction the canvases Salman painted on the sets. The idea is still tentative, but there’s a strong chance that the paintings will go under the hammer.
