"Salman ke saath toh hamesha hi woh darr rehta hai. More than fear, intimidation. But Salman is such a good person, he never made me feel that way. I was like a creep around him during the shoot. I remember in-between shots, in the resting period, he would sit outside his vanity with the crew and I would sit there with them too."

Zareen Khan further revealed that she would keep staring at Salman Khan while sitting outside the vanity van. When the superstar would ask her what happened, she wouldn't stop fan girling him. Recalling the time, Zareen said:
"Salman would be doing his thing and and I would keep staring at him and he would ask me, ‘kya hua?' and I would say, 'I can’t believe I am sitting opposite you. I’ve only seen you in movies and my whole family is a huge fan'."
Zareen, who had seen immense fame right after her first film, revealed that she was a big fan of Salman. Before entering films, she would chase Salman when he would ride a bicycle on Carter Road in Bandra, Mumbai. Zareen added that Salman wouldn't remember it as she was double or triple her size. She was quoted as saying:
"When I was in college, I remember how he would ride his cycle on Carter Road (Bandra, Mumbai), and I had chased him. I am sure he doesn’t even remember because I was double or triple my size. And suddenly I am sitting opposite Salman Khan. So I would keep thinking about all that and would keep staring at him."
