Salman Khan on 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan': The movie is a complete package
Mumbai: Salman Khan is set to make a comeback to the big screen in a leading role after four years with family entertainer ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’ and the superstar hopes audiences will appreciate their effort. A ‘Salman Khan Film’ (SKF) production, it is directed by Farhad Samji.
The 58-year-old actor said the movie is a complete package with elements like action, romance and family drama at its core.
“I just hope it pays off, that’s it. People just appreciate the film, like the film and go and see it. It is a typical Hindustani film. It has action and you put the Sooraj Barjatya type of film (family drama) and the romance that Sanjay Leela Bhansali films have. It is today’s film,” Salman said at the trailer launch event for ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’.
The event was also attended by other cast members, including Pooja Hegde, Jagapathi Babu, Bhumika Chawla, Vijender Singh, Raghav Juyal, Siddharth Nigam, Jassie Gill, Shehnaaz Gill, Palak Tiwari and Vinali Bhatnagar.
Star Indian boxer Vijender Singh plays one of the antagonists in the movie and Salman said he had to remind the sports star not to hit him hard during the action sequences.
“In the last shot, he learnt that he had to hit it slow,” he quipped.
The film, scheduled to be released on Eid 2023, also features veteran Telugu star Venkatesh in a pivotal role. A popular production house will be releasing the movie worldwide.
Salman, who was last seen in a cameo appearance as spy Tiger in superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s blockbuster ‘Pathaan’, said after the pandemic-induced break he is excited to have back-to-back releases. After ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’, the actor will next be seen in Yash Raj Film’s ‘Tiger 3’, slated to hit theatres in December. The film is part of YRF’s spy universe and will also feature a cameo by Shah Rukh’s Pathaan.
“We released ‘Radhe’ on Eid on OTT. Then ‘Antim’ came. In the next six months, I have another release (‘Tiger 3’) and then one more after six months. It was a long break of four years,” the actor said.
