Mufti, who was present here in Mumbai to promote tourism in
her state and a trailer launch of a film "Sargoshiyan" by actor-turned-director
Imran Khan, urged all Mumbaikars to visit Kashmir this year.
When asked if she wanted any Bollywood actor to become the
brand ambassador of the state tourism, Mufti told the media: "Given a chance,
I would like to choose Salman Khan to promote tourism there."
Extending an open invitation to everyone to visit Jammu and
Kashmir during the spring as the state government was planning to host a tulip
festival at Asia's largest Tulip Garden in Srinagar, Mufti said: "Visit
our Kashmir. Our state is safe for tourists."

of Kashmir and Kashmiriyat. The film features Tom Alter, Imran Khan, Farida
Jalal, Alok Nath, Inderneil Sengupta and Aditi Bhatia, among others.
