MUMBAI: Actress Preity Zinta has recalled that she was a bit scared of Salman Khan to begin with, and also in awe of the superstar.

The actress shared clips from the song "Aate jaate jo milta hai", which was picturised on Salman and Preity for the 2000 film "Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega".

“This is one of my favourite songs from one of my most favourite movies. Most favourite because I met my closest and dearest friend @beingsalmankhan during this shoot," wrote Preity.
