Salman Khan denies going under the knife

Bollywood actor Salman Khan, who has been recently clutching on to his sunglasses for dear life, may have triggered rumours that he went under the knife to ward off eye-bags. But the Dabangg star is unfazed and has taken to Twitter to set the record straight.

"Thx fr the concern. It was jst a small scratch near the eye but b cs of all the commitments vit big boss, launch of being human watches," Khan posted on Tuesday.

The actor was rumoured to have headed to Dubai for a nip and tuck, with some in the Indian media claiming he had flown in doctors from Singapore to perform age-defying procedures last week. But sources in Dubai close to Khan told tabloid! that the last time the actor was in the city was two months ago.

Meanwhile, Khan is making the most of the situation. Apart from posting gory pictures of his condition (inset), he seems intent on making light of the situation: "Yaar sm body has blue eyes , sm green , black , hazel, brown , lite brown etc , so fr a few days I hv 1 red n 1 lite brown hehehe enjoy...," he tweeted.

Last week, his confidence was on full display as he strutted down the ramp with his sunnies on at the HDIL Couture Week with a bevy of Bollywood beauties, including Rani Mukherjee and Preity Zinta.
