"Deepika Padukone has said that she and Salman Khan are like &amp;quot;star-crossed lovers&amp;quot; because they have not been able to work together. The actress, who  made her debut with Shah Rukh Khan in Om Shanti Om and has scored hit films with Saif Ali Khan, has yet to star in a film with Salman. Speaking to Glamsham, the 27-year-old star said: &amp;quot;I think Salman and I are like star-crossed lovers. Somehow we are always so close to doing a film and that sort of never happens. &amp;quot;There is no reason why I wouldn&amp;#039;t want to work with him. I love him. He along with Shah Rukh are actors whom I have adored since the start of my career.&amp;quot;  The Chennai Express star also said that Salman has always been supportive of her work.  &amp;quot;When he sees my film, watches an ad of mine or sees my poster somewhere while travelling, he lets me know what he feels about it. He is constantly in touch. Hopefully we will do a film together soon.&amp;quot;  A source added: &amp;quot;Deepika has been around for over half a decade but somehow her pairing with Salman is just not happening.  &amp;quot;Both want to work with each other and while Deepika is... naturally keen to be associated with Salman, even the actor (who is very particular about the leading ladies he pairs up with) has absolutely no issues around her being a part of his films.  &amp;quot;However, due to some reason or the other, just when it seems like roads have been cleared on their partnership, something or the other doesn&amp;#039;t quite fall in place, hence resulting in the duo waiting for another day.&amp;quot;  Salman was reportedly considering casting Padukone as the female lead in Kick.
