Here's taking you back to 2012 when Katrina Kaif's vermilion set tongues wagging! It was during the screening of her movie, Ek Tha Tiger when Katrina Kaif landed up at the screening with 'sindoor' in her forehead. The movie released in August 2012 ahead of Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations when fans actually thought that she was MARRIED! To whom, if you may ask? Well, who else could it be other than Salman Khan? It was back then when rumours of Salman and Katrina dating were doing the rounds and this particular photo sparked a major controversy until Reshma Shetty, the then manager of Salman Khan clarified that it wasn't sindoor. Ganesh Chaturthi Throwback: When Sidharth Malhotra DITCHED Alia Bhatt for Jacqueline Fernandez! - See Pic.

 It so happened that Katrina went at Reshma Shetty's house for a puja where she the laal teeka was put on her forehead. Post that, the actress directly went to attend the screening of her movie. It was quite obvious for people to speculate otherwise considering Salman and Katrina were rumoured to be in a love affair! Hmmm Interesting! Fans did wish to see the two of them get married as they were just the perfect couple. However, the two parted ways and went on to date different people. But that didn't ever stop Katrina and Salman to be friends. The exes were last seen in Tiger Zinda Hai, a sequel to Ek Tha Tiger. They are currently prepping for Ali Abbas Zafar's Bharat.
