Salman Khan, the handsome hunk of bollywood who is in his mid- forties, has refused to star as an youngster.
In Abhishek Dogra’s film after patiently listening to the script for almost ninety minutes at his pad in Bandra.
However, Sallubhai did not discourage the young filmmaker, who is Ahmed Khan’s assistant, and suggested some changes in his script.
Which was readily agreed to. Salman Khan, who has one of the fittest physiques in the tinsel town, felt
that the role did not suit his age and personality. And hence the filmmaker should excuse him. But, insiders reveal another story about the whole rejection of the script.
They point out that the film had three main heroes in it and Salman Khan would have to share screen space with three other heroes and this was not to the liking of Salman Khan, and he opted out of the project. Though Salman Khan may have reservation about playing a college kid or other young role but bollywood’s perfectionist Khan, Aamir Khan, does not have any reservation.
In fact, Aamir Khan had essayed the character of a college kid in ‘Rang De Basanti’. Even Amitabh Bachchan played the part of a school kid ‘Auro’ in his critically acclaimed flick ‘Paa’.Though Salman Khan rejected the proposal on the basis of age but even brawny Khan never objects to be parried opposite heroines half of his age. The latest example of this is Salman Khan starrer ‘Dabanng’, wherein the brawny star has been paired opposite Sonakshi Sinha, who is even less than half of his age.
