10 Mar 2018

Its finally official. For months now, there has been speculation on the inimitable Prabhudheva and his association with Salman Khan over Dabangg 3.For the first time, Prabhudheva speaks about the project. I was in Mumbai last week to finalise all the details. Yes, I am directing Dabangg 3 for Salman and Arbaaz Khan.Who says no to them? Prabhu laughs affectionately, recalling his association with Salman since the historic Wanted in 2009. Weve been closely associated for the longest time. I share a warm friendship with Salman Khan and his brothers. When Salman and Arbaaz asked me to direct Dabangg 3 there was no question of saying no, says Prabhu whose Wanted had resurrected Salmans career after a series of box office duds. Not like that, Prabhu protests shyly. The biggest of superstars go through ups and downs in their career. Salman is Salman. Flops or hits dont matter to his career. As for Dabangg 2 , Prabhu says he hasnt seen the earlier segments of the franchise. Id like to give it my own spin. Of course we all know what Salmans Chulbul Pandey is all about. That sense of masti will remain in the cops role. As for the rest, nothing changes. Says Prabhu, Everything including the cast remains the same. Salman, Sonakshi Sinha , Arbaaz the music will be by Sajid-Wajid. Everything in Dabangg is unchanged except me: the director. Incidentally Dabangg 3 would be Sonakshis fifth film with Prabhudheva. Sonakshi and I share a comfort level. I think we will have fun making this film. Its been a while since Prabhu worked in Mumbai. My last Hindi film as a director was Singh is Bling with Akshay Kumar in 2015. Since then Ive been busy with my South assignments, adds Prabhu.
