Did Salman Khan just admit Priyanka Chopra gave him a false reason while leaving Bharat?

There's a lot that was being said about the rift between Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra over the latter walking out of Ali Abbas Zafar's Bharat. The director hinted at PC's rumoured fiance, Nick, as the reason behind her leaving the film. It didn't appear like the real reason later.

Salman Khan finally talked about the entire hullabaloo at the trailer launch of Loveratri. He said that he doesn't know what's the real reason behind Priyanka's exit from the film. However, he will always wish her luck for all her future ventures.

Salman answered all the questions once and for all when he said, "I am really happy for her. Uss waqt hum ko ye pata chalta ke unhone wahan par koi bahut badi film sign ki hai aur hume thoda pehla pata chalta to hum waise bhi usko kabhi rokte nahi. [Had we knew that she has signed a big film there, a little earlier, we would have never stopped her anyway]".

He added, "End moment pe pata chala, shooting ke 10 din pehle pata chala. Shooting shuru ho gayi thi meri, par unke schedule se 10 din pehle pata chala ki who picture chhodna chahti hai. [We got to know about it at the very last moment, just 10 days before the shooting of the film. We had begun filming the film. She told us that she wanted to leave the film only 10 days before she was scheduled to shoot with us]".

Salman also mentioned that he doesn't want to find out about the reason and all he knows is that the actress is making her country proud with whatever work she's taking up. He went on:

"We said of course, if you don’t want to do it, don’t do it. Uss waqt kuchh alag reason diye gaye the hame. Jo bhi reason hai, shaadi ka reason ho, ya picture ka reason ho, ya unko India main nahi kaam karna, ya mere saath nahi kaam karna, sirf Hollywood film aur TV show karna hai, wo unka reason hai".

[We were given some other reasons then. Whatever the reason is though -- the marriage, a big Hollywood film, that she doesn't want to work in India, she doesn't want to work with me, she only wants to work in Hollywood films or TV shows, she's entitled to have them all]. We are really happy and supportive about her doing good work".

He added, "Agar yahan pe kaam nahi kare to kya hua, waha pe to who Hindustan ka naam roshan kar rahi hai. Agar Salman Khan ke saath kaam nahi karna, waha ke kisi bade hero ke saath kaam kar rahi hai to Hindustan ka naam to roshan hota hai na. [Even if she isn't working here, she's working there and making India proud. What if she isn't working with Salman but with some other big actor there?... whatever she's doing, she's making our country proud]".

Well, you heard him!
