Salman Khan

is known for not just his on-screen aura and magic but the actor is loved by his fans for his swag and attitude off-screen! The actor who's spent more than 30 years in the industry has been a part of many memorable movies. Many of his co-stars have interesting anecdotes to share about the actor. For instance, Salman's co-star from '

Jaanam Samjha Karo

',

Grusha Kapoor

shared an incident which happened on the set.

Grusha recalled a day on the film when Salman was 10 hours late for the shoot. In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, she said that she was called for a 9 am shift, for which she reached the location at 8:30 am. Other cast members including

Urmila Mantondkar

were also there but Salman was late. "Now all the angles were done, whatever we could do without Salman. Salman was still not there. In the evening, at around 7 or 8 pm, Salman came," she said.

Later, Salman was sitting on the sofa with the director and they were chatting for a bit. That's when Grusha lost her patience. "He was sitting on the sofa in a ganji and jeans and he was talking to the director. Suddenly I realised that they have been discussing this scene for far too long. I thought, 'What is this great scene that is about happen'? Me being me, there was no fear, I had nothing to lose. I just turned and snapped at the director, 'What are we waiting for? It's almost 9 pm'."

The actress said that nobody had the guts to tell Salman that the shot was ready since so many hours. Here's how Salman reacted when Grusha got a little angry. "Salman was sitting right there and he just looked at me and (looked away) and said 'Haan, meri costume le aao. Chaliye ma'am scene karte hain'. I got up and I did the scene. I thought I have made it easy for the director. No one could gather the courage to tell Salman that the shot has been ready for five hours. I don't think this was Salman's fault. I feel that when the director is more capable than the actor, they can control everything."

'Jaanam Samjha Karo' released in 1999 and it was a love story with beautiful songs which are remembered over the years.
