Salman's aide launches promo of 'Bodyguard'

Mumbai, July 21 (IANS) Salman Khan knows how to make people close to him feel special. The actor Thursday asked Shera, his bodyguard for 15 years, to launch the promo of his upcoming film 'Bodyguard'.

'This is a very big honour that bhai (Salman) has given me by giving me an opportunity to release his film's promo. I have been with bhai for 15 years now. I used to tell bhai that I can take a bullet for him. But the reality is that he protects his close ones so much that even he can take a bullet for them. He is the real life bodyguard,' Shera told reporters here.

The actor, who was also present at the event, said: 'I can trust him with everything - with money, girls, family and even my life. He is very trustworthy. Apart from guarding me, his duty has also been to go with every girl who has been in my life. I knew he will take good care of them wherever they go.'

'Bodyguard' is romantic action film directed by Siddique and it is a remake of the director's 2010 Malayalam movie of the same name. The film is being produced by Atul Agnihotri and is slated to release Aug 13. Kareena Kapoor plays the female lead in it.

She was all praise for Shera and Salman.

'Shera has known me since I was 10 years old. And today, he is launching the promo of my film. He has known me before I was an actress, so it is a very special moment. It's all thanks to Salman,' said the actress.
