'Never read a script': Salman Khan makes surprising confession
What's the story
Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has made a surprising revelation about his working style. In an interview with Variety India, he confessed that he has never read a full screenplay in his over three-decade-long career! "I've never read a script in my entire life. I've written them...but I've never read them," Khan said. "I listen to scripts because when I start reading them, I've got this problem that...I'm reading the third line and my mind is on the fifth," he added.

How Khan works with the director during the narration
Khan explained, "What I prefer is to hear the script from the writer or director. So I know [his vision]." "Otherwise, if I read it, then it goes into how I would make the film, and my vision would be different from the director's or the writer's." The conversation also touched upon Khan's collection of luxury watches. The actor clarified, "You see me wearing watches; that doesn't mean that those are mine. Either it belongs to one friend or another."
