Mumbai, June 24: Salman Khan will play a corrupt police officer from UP in brother Arbaaz Khan’s home production.
Now when was the last time we saw Salman playing an uncouth, unsophisticated character? In almost all his films, he’s dressed as an uber cool dude with a unique style statement.
But now, Sallu will undergo an image makeover for director Abhinav Kashyap’s film Dabangg. The movie will have him playing a corrupt and ill- mannered cop from UP. He will also mouth dialogues in vernacular Hindi.
“Salman’s fans have never seen him like this before,” Arbaaz said.
Interestingly, Abhinav, Anurag Kashyap’s brother, first approached Arbaaz for a role in the film. But Arbaaz liked the script so much that he offered to produce the film.
It would be his first film as producer.
While Salman plays the lead, Arbaaz, too, will have an important role. The female lead would be played by Shatrughan Sinha’s daughter Sonakshi, who has already started preparing for her role.
