Unseen pictures of Salman Khan's rumoured Romanian girlfriend lulia Vantur

Born on July 24, 1980, Iulia Vantur hails from Iasi, Romania. Starting a career at a very young age, Iulia was a model, television presenter and anchor in Romania. She was 15 when she did her first modelling assignment. Iulia became popular in India when she was linked to Salman Khan in 2011.

It all started when a Romanian magazine carried a love story between Iulia, who was then introduced as a Romanian TV news presenter, and Salman. In the magazine interview, Iulia claimed that she met Sallu when she was in Mumbai and ever since is in touch with him. She had even posed for the magazine in Being Human tees.

Back in Romania, Iulia Vantur had made a name as a TV presenter, model, a model instructor and singer as well.

In 2016, Iulia Vantur collaborated with Himesh Reshammiya for his album Aap Se Mausiiquii, where she lent her voice in the song Every Night And Day. When her song was launched, the first thing that everyone noticed about Iulia Vantur was her impressive Hindi.

She recalled speaking to Himesh for the first time after close friend Salman Khan made the composer hear out her rendition of 'Teri Meri Kahani' from 'Bodyguard' (2011).

There were rumours that Iulia Vantur was briefly married to producer-musician Marius Moga, but they ended their marriage in 2009. When rumours of Iulia and Salman Khan's wedding started doing rounds in 2016, few intimate snapshots of Vantur with Marius went viral.

Asked about her equation with Salman Khan, Iulia Vantur said, "He is a very good friend and not just to me, but to everyone he meets. He is a great man with a good heart."

Currently, Iulia Vantur is spending her time at Salman Khan's Pavel farmhouse, amid lockdown imposed due to Coronavirus pandemic. She seems to be enjoying the farm life with the Bollywood superstar.
