Salman Khan and Amitabh Bachchan TEAM UP for Dangal directors’ next!

Salman Khan and Amitabh Bachchan have successfully (and one would even think, effortlessly) taken India to a global scale and are also part of some cutting-edge feature films. While we have seen Salman in all his glory in Tiger Zinda Hai, his Baagbaan ke bapuji, Amitabh Bachchan will be seen in a ferocious medieval warrior avatar in YRF’s Thugs Of Hindostan.

But, it’s been a while to see them share screen space, right? Well, for one reason or the other, we haven’t seen much of these guys on screen. But now, that string is going to break as the director of Aamir Khan’s Dangal is getting the two together!

But, hold your horses there! Not for a film (at least not yet), but, for the commercial of Emami’s edible oils.  Emami has three brands in edible oil business – Emami Healthy & Tasty, Himani Best Choice and Rasoi apart from Bake Magic, a specialty fat brand. A new commercial starring Salman is expected to go on air soon.

The director of the Emami group, Aditya Vardhan Agarwal is of the opinion that, “Salman Khan has a huge fan following which is evident from his slew of box office grossers like ‘Sultan’, ‘Kick’, ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’, ‘Dabangg’ and ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’. We felt he will be the right fit along with Big B to take our brands to a wider consumer base,” 

Wow. Well, if not in the film, at least we will get to see them together for a couple of minutes for now, right?

Here’s hoping that the two sign a full-length feature film soon!
