An ardent cricket fan, the noted scriptwriter, along with his sons Salman and Arbaaz Khan and their wives, were seen receiving the guests. And the story goes that at the end of the delightful evening, the cricketers got a feel of the famous 'Salman Khan generosity', when Sallu gifted them each a Rolex watch.The guests included Sri Lankan captain Mahela Jayawardane, Sanath Jayasuriya, Farveez Maharoof, Malinga Bandara and Nuwan Zoysa. The programme for the evening involved drinks and an informal dinner.Talking about the dinner, the noted scriptwriter said, “It was a very private dinner. I had not really planned out anything as such. We're a bunch of cricket lovers and we just wanted to have our cricketers over.”So, what did they talk about?“I chatted with the Lankan skipper and Sanath Jayasuriya. Other boys like Farveez Maharoof, Malinga Bandara and Nuwan Zoysa were also good to talk to. I've been closely following these boys on the cricket pitch for so long and finally, I met them. In fact, my entire family including my sons and their wives interacted with them.”Conversations veered from the international cricket scene to Salman’s shirtless act and even home-cooked biryani . Interestingly, the Lankan cricketers have seen films penned by Khan Sr., and are quite fond of Salman's flicks.“Just as I'm fond of watching these boys play cricket, they also have seen our films. My son Arbaaz is particularly fond of the game. I used to wield the willow myself, about 10 years back," says Khan.Finally, when it was time to say good-bye, Sallu handed out Rolex watches to the cricketers. Sources reveal that the Khans have a tradition of handing out gifts to first-time visitors to the Khans’ house.“We wished them luck as they left for Kolkata. I'm looking forward to the international ODI that they're going to play with the Men in Blue,” Salman’s dad said.</blockquote>
