Tubelight teaser: Salman Khan was up for the challenge, informs Kabir
Narrating how Salman Khan was roped in for ‘Tubelight’ during its teaser launch, director Kabir Khan says that the celeb star informed him that he himself was up for the challenge
The first teaser of Salman Khan-starrer ‘Tubelight’ has upped the ante and the excitement quotient in the Hindi cinema as well as for fans. Celebrity director Kabir Khan promises a never-seen-before avatar of Salman Khan. He says, “Salman Khan’s role in ‘Tubelight’ is something that he hasn’t done in his career every before. As a director when I went to explain him the role, I told him it was an extremely challenging character and that he should be really true to it. He said, ‘I am up for the challenge’. Sallu has pushed the boundary as far as craft and acting are concerned.”
Sohail Khan plays Salman Khan’s brother in ‘Tubelight’ and Kabir explains how it was a cakewalk to shoot the brothers together! “If I have to establish love between the two brothers in the film, it happens in a second. You can see it immediately as there is a lot of love between Sohail and Salman. Sohail has a very special role in this film,” adds the filmmaker. Salman, Sohail and Chinese actress Zhu Zhu-starrer ‘Tubelight’ will hit the screens during Eid in June this year.
