Salman Khan has the knack for recognising talent when he sees it and gives his 'discoveries' the breaks they deserve. The actor recently attended a talent hunt show to promote Dabangg and was so impressed by Daler Mehndi's slogan Yaara Di Toli Aaye for his team that he's now converting it into a song for his next film.

Says a source, "Daler sang Yaara Di Toli Aaye (the slogan of his team on Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Singing Superstar) along with his team. Salman interrupted to say that he liked it so much that he was going to use it for his next film. He also requested Daler not to use it for anything else. Since Daler is not a music composer, Bhai requested Sajid-Wajid to complete the song."

Ashish Golwalkar, non-fiction head, Zee says, "The three teams or gharanas have a slogan, which is almost like a war cry. The three mentors sing them. Salman liked Daler's so much that he wanted to use it in his next film. He also danced with Mehndi to hit Punjabi songs. He's a great entertainer and it's always fun to have him on the sets."
The episode will be aired on September 4.

A few months ago, the actor had picked up Mudassar Khan after seeing one of his acts at an awards night he had gone to judge. Later he promised the lad that he would let him choreograph him in his next film. True to his word, Sallu gave Mudassar a chance to choreograph Humko Peeni Hai for Dabangg.
