Salman Khan appeared on the sets of Kapil Sharma's "Comedy Nights With Kapil" around Diwali, to promote his movie "Prem Ratan Dhan Payo." On set, Khan saw a packet of firecrackers with ex-girlfriend, Katrina Kaif's image on it. "What purpose does it serve you to have her picture around? She is of no use to you," said Khan, to Sharma, according to SKJ Bollywood News. He followed it up by saying, "She was of no use to me also." His comments had the duo laughing uproariously. Kaif was unamused, and a repentant Khan apologized.

"He (Salman) lives in a parallel universe, always making these jokes about me publicly, which get the media really kicked. Like the comment he made on Kapil's show when he saw my pictures on a set of crackers- 'She is of no use to me.' I called him and yelled at him. I can do that, it is the sort of equation we have. He said, 'Okay sorry I will apologise to the media,'" Kaif said, according to International Business Times.

"I told him to do no such thing and maintain a dignified silence if that is possible," she added, according to The Union Oracle.

"The base of my relationship with Salman was correct, it was true. Which is why we are still able to be friends," she added, reports the International Business Times.
