Salman Khan Is Launching This Star Kid In Dabangg 3

Salman Khan is going to play the godfather to yet another newcomer in Bollywood that too in Dabbang 3. Khan would be launching director/actor Mahesh Manjrekar’s daughter Saiee in the upcoming film.

The film will trace the journey of Chulbul Pandey from a good-hearted local goon to ultimately the super cop that he becomes. While Sonakshi Sinha will be reprising her role of Rajjo, Chulbul’s wife, Khan would be romancing Saiee in his younger avatar. A source close to the development revealed, “She plays Salman’s love interest and her role is primarily in the prequel. However, life comes full circle as the character has relevance to the conflict Chulbul is battling in the present.”

Salman Khan and Mahesh Manjrekar go back a long way and in fact responsible for giving Salman Khan his career-defining hit with Wanted, which he directed. He also played a short but memorable role in the first Dabangg as Rajjo’s father.

The shooting of the film is already underway and it is set to hit the screens later this year in December, in time for Christmas.  The film is being directed by Prabhudeva.
