What's the story

Chitrangda Singh, who stars alongside Salman Khan in the upcoming war drama Maatrubhumi, has defended him against rumors of unprofessionalism. Speaking to NDTV at the Yuva event, she dismissed claims that Khan is difficult to work with or often late. "People said a lot of things about Salman, like schedules would be stretched and he might not be on time," she said. "People used to say he is unprofessional, but he is amazing."

On-set behavior

'He treats everyone with love, looks after others'

Singh further lauded Khan's behavior on set, particularly his treatment of the crew. "He treats everyone with love, looks after others, and shows concern even for crew members," she said. "He was very approachable and has that amazing quality of noticing the least visible person on set, whether it is a lightman or the fourth AD. He would ask whether they had a break and their food on time, and how they were being treated." "To still have that concern after so many years in the industry is amazing."
