Vivek Oberoi's outburst against Salman:
Arbaaz Khan points to Aishwarya Rai

Actor Arbaaz Khan [ Images ] on Wednesday told Aaj Tak that Aishwarya Rai [ Images ] may have something to do with fellow actor Vivek Oberoi's [ Images ] outburst against Salman Khan [ Images ].

Vivek had on Tuesday alleged that Salman had telephoned him 41 times in a single night and warned him to keep away from actresses Aishwarya Rai, Rani Mukherjee [ Images ] and Somi Ali, or else he would kill him.

Salman left for London [ Images ] early on Wednesday, but before leaving denied Vivek's allegation and said he would issue a detailed denial on his return.

Arbaaz denied that his elder brother had threatened Oberoi and dismissed his allegations as 'false and baseless'.

"Salman is a bigger star than Vivek. To become a star everyone in the industry is targetting Salman," Arbaaz told reporters in Mumbai [ Images ].

He said that Vivek might be in love with Rai, a former Miss World, who was earlier close to Salman.
