New Delhi: Actress Katrina Kaif has demanded a formal apology from the Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamna for saying that she was married to Salman Khan.

This after Saamna carried a special article written by Salman's father Salim Khan saying that his 44-year-old son has already tied the knot with his long time girlfriend Katrina.

Katrina has denied the report and Salim Khan now says he has been misquoted.

"Salim sahab has already said that he has been misquoted or perhaps the reporter who was taking the interview misunderstood. Let's give the reporter a benefit of doubt that it was a mistake," she told CNN-IBN.

"I definitely thinks that Saamna should issue a clarification if not an apology because it's not a small thing. It's not the news of a movie or some endorsement that one has signed. It's a big think to make a mistake about somebody's life like this. And I think a clarification is a must because I know for a fact that Salim sahab has definitely not said anything and one should be careful while reporting for such a major newspaper and while writing articles," she added.

She said that her managers have spoken to the editors at Saamna and that they were assured of a corrigendum.

"People who read Saamna are regulars so when they open the paper tomorrow, there should be a clarification in the paper. They should say that they were misinformed or the misprinted and that's it. I think the matter should be ended then and there," she stated.
