Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, who is known for his philanthropic and humanitarian works apart from ruling the box office, was spotted on the sets of âBigg Boss 18' as he arrived to shoot the promo for the upcoming season. However, while entering the set's premises, he met an old woman who asked him to give her a saree ahead of Ganesh Chathurthi.
The heartfelt interaction between Salman Khan and the old woman has surfaced on social media. She tells him, "Ganpati is coming. I want a saree." She also tells him how she's prayed for his well-being. Check out the video below.
Salman will be seen headlining 'Sikandar'. The film marks the reunion of Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala after their previous successful collaborations 'Kick', 'Judwaa', and 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi'. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss, the film is set to release next Eid. In May 2024, the production house officially announced that Rashmika Mandanna was also a part of the film.
Salman will also be sharing screen space with Shah Rukh Khan in âTiger Vs Pathaan'. The film will reportedly have Tiger (Salman) locking horns with Pathaan, played by SRK. It will mark their full-fledged collaboration after 'Karan Arjun'. An official announcement regarding the project is still awaited.
Murugadoss considers these sequences as the film's highlight and is planning to mount them on a grand scale. A source revealed to Mid-day, "The first is an aerial action set-piece that sees Salman suspended from a height as he engages in hand-to-hand combat. Its choreography will blend aerial acrobatics with close-quarters combat. This scene, which also includes special effects, is expected to be one of the most visually stunning parts of the movie."
While the second scene in question is an elaborate car chase, complete with cars exploding and high-speed crashes, the third is the climactic battle. "Here, Salman's character will have a face-off with the primary antagonist in a brutal brawl. The director wants it to be raw and bloody," added the source.
