"I have a lot of friends in the industry both male and female, birds, animals all. Whose name should I take? All are my friends here (in the film industry)," Salman told reporters here at an event.
"But among close friends, I have Sanju (Sanjay Dutt) who I have known since childhood...Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan," he said.
The 50-year-old star who was talking at the trailer launch of brother Sohail Khan's upcoming directorial film "Freaky Ali", said in a lighter vein that his male friends might not be of interest to the media.
"These all names you are finding boring right? Should I give names of some girls? Katrina Kaif is my friend," he said.
"Her film ("Baar Baar Dekho") is releasing with our film (Sohail Khan's "Freaky Ali"). So I am both the ways (as Sohail's film is also there, and even Katrina's film is there)," the actor added.
