Salman plays an unexpected role for his next!

Salman Khan ‘Sultan’ set a new benchmark for the Bollywood Box Office, not only in 2016, but also over the past decades. We’ve always seen the Bhai of Bollywood in badass avatars, breaking down doors, fighting crime and rescuing his lady love from the hands of villainous men!

Salman’s interview with a leading daily recently showed us a while new side of him. He revealed the character he will play in his next. Yes, the ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ actor is all set to play the role of a father to a 13 year old in his next!

 “I played a father in Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai when I was in my 30s. I’ve been there and done that. And in my next film, I’m playing the father to a 13-year-old girl. It’s a film about dancing. Like the Hollywood Step Up franchise. I’m going to be a properly trained dancer. You know how painful that is? Sultan was also painful. I had to lose 18 kilos of muscle. I’m not into diets. I eat ghar ka khana. And I don’t eat for taste. As soon as I’ve got my proteins and carbs, I leave the table. So, to lose 18 kilos of muscle was the most difficult thing on the earth. But I’ve always believed that effortless hard work should be seen onscreen. And that’s what I’ve been doing from Wanted to Sultan. I don’t see myself doing character roles. So what if I’m 51? Stallone is still Rocky and Rambo at 70. Filmmaking is the most beautiful industry. We sell dreams. Why shouldn’t I live mine?”

It will be interesting to see the ‘Wanted’ star in his new daddy avatar!
