Pakistanis have been wondering if Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan will be coming to cinemas in the country when it releases on Eid. Well, add another question to ponder about to the list: Is Khan also coming to Pakistan?

In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, the leading man claimed that if there was a premiere for the flick here across the border, he'd be more than willing to hop over to promote it.

"If there is a chance, if there is a premiere, of course I'll go," said the actor.

Khan also shared in the interview that he is dying to sing a song and he's definitely going to be singing one track from the soundtrack.

The Bodyguard star claimed that he did not use glycerin in order to cry for certain scenes in the film: "That whole atmosphere was such that each scene reminded you of the film and the screenplay and tears automatically rolled down. It's never happened to me before."

The movie will release on Eid this year and go head to head at the box office with Pakistani filck, Bin Roye, starring Humayun Saeed and Mahira Khan.
