Actor Prithviraj Sukumaran, who essays the antagonist in the film, recently opened up on how his ‘Salaar’ director Prashant Neel convinced him to be a part of the action entertainer, which he nearly rejected.
He said, “I was caught bang in the middle of 'Salaar' and also another film I'm doing. Also, I am a part-time filmmaker so I know how difficult it is to do a cast-heavy film like ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’, With Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Sonakshi Sinha, Manushi Chhillar, and Alaya F, so many people's availability and dates have to sync with each other. Then I told Ali (Abbas Zafar)I didn't want to come into this and then completely spoil the whole plan. I loved the narration. The very first narration just blew me over. I immediately switched off and told my wife and my manager that we had to make this film happen. But it just seemed like it was not going to happen."
He continued, "You won't believe I was shooting for Salaar's climax. I remember this because I was completely drenched in blood and was talking about 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' with director Prashant Neel. I was talking about the film for 10-15 minutes and then Prashant turned around and said, 'If you let this film go, you will be very sad' and I was like, 'Probably'. And then that night something happened that moved another film of mine a little bit. Then Ali really adjusted and moved around a few things for me. He got me to travel two and a half days to Glendale in Scotland to shoot for four hours and then two and a half days back to my location in Manali. So that is how particular Ali was."
Written and directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, and produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh, Jackky Bhagnani, Himanshu Kishan Mehra, and Ali Abbas Zafar, the film will be released in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.
