Salman Khan

People have loved Salman's picture. It's just being Salman. I wanted that James Dean, smoking, walking-on-the-street kind of a thing. He was shooting at Borivali National Park so I said I'll come there and do the shot. I loved the way the light was pouring in through the trees. I wanted to capture that he is coming out from the shadow into the light.
