Actor Nikhil Dwivedi was in for a pleasant surprise when Salman gifted him six leather jackets from his personal collection, and a painting to boot.
A source close to Nikhil says, "The two have been bonding for some time. In fact, Nikhil was in the front row at the Being Human show in Mumbai.

One day, Sallu told the young actor he had something for him and got him two jackets. He then got him four more.

In fact, he's even worn some of them in his films like Saajan and Hum Aapke Hain Koun. In those days, Salman would often wear his personal stuff on screen, too."
'Be positive'
Apart from the jackets, Khan also gifted Dwivedi a painting. The source adds, "Nikhil had asked Salman to write down something for him.
But instead of writing a message, he painted something on the spot and gifted it to him. During their last meeting, Salman even encouraged the youngster to always be positive about his work."
Nikhil refused to comment saying it was a personal matter.
Buzz is that he plans to wear a couple of those jackets in his future projects, hoping Salman's luck might rub off on him! He will next be seen in Ekta Kapoor's Shorr, with Tusshar Kapoor.
