Q.
Antim
is
getting
positive
response
from
the
audience.
Talking
about
the
budget
and
collection
of
the
film,
what
would
you
like
to
say?
A.
(Laughs)
The
budget
of
the
film
was
huge.
We
started
with
a
very
small
budget,
but
gradually
it
has
become
a
good
Dabang
budget
film.
And
when
it
comes
to
marketing,
earlier
people
felt
that
my
role
in
the
film
is
only
for
10-15
minutes.
But
now
people
are
watching
as
it
is
known
that
my
character
is
in
the
entire
film.
The
film
is
being
praised,
every
day
the
collection
is
increasing
so
it
is
a
good
thing.
Q.
Along
with
you,
Aayush
is
also
being
appreciated
a
lot
in
the
film.
What
would
you
like
to
say?
A.
Aayush
has
just
started
and
he
channelized
the
anger
he
had
in
him
at
the
right
places;
in
the
gym,
in
action
scenes,
during
rehearsals.
He
has
worked
really
very
hard
on
this
film
and
it's
visible
in
the
film.
His
role
was
very
good.
As
far
as
my
role
is
concerned,
I
had
tried
to
bring
some
other
big
actor
in
it.
I
approached
them
too,
but
I
didn't
saw
any
such
special
interest
from
anyone's
side.
Then
I
gave
up
hope.
But
I
loved
this
role.
I
knew
this
character
has
four
scenes
in
Mulshi
Pattern
and
I
knew
what
can
I
do
with
it,
that's
when
I
decided
to
be
a
part
of
this
film.
If
I
had
been
in
only
four-six
scenes,
I
would
never
have
come
forward
and
told
people
that
this
is
my
film.
It
would
have
been
a
complete
Aayush's
film.
But
now
I
don't
have
a
cameo
here.
Yes,
I
don't
have
any
romantic
songs
or
romantic
scenes,
but
if
you
watch
the
film,
it's
very
different
from
my
earlier
roles.
Actually,
we
had
shot
a
romantic
angle
for
this
film,
if
it
was
there,
my
role
in
the
film
would
have
been
20
minutes
more.
But
I
myself
did
not
like
it.
I
thought
the
picture
was
going
somewhere
else.
Then
we
deleted
that
track.
Q.
Mahesh
Manjrekar
said
that
it
was
in
his
mind
from
the
very
beginning
that
he
will
present
you
in
some
different
way.
What
do
you
think
about
your
character?
A.
From
the
beginning,
both
of
us
had
in
mind
that
this
character
will
not
be
like
Dabangg.
He
will
not
shout
or
scream,
but
there
will
be
a
maturity
in
the
character.
But
to
tell
the
truth,
when
I
started
shooting,
I
used
to
wonder
what
I
am
doing!
But
then
I
believed
in
my
character.
I
think
this
was
one
of
the
toughest
characters
I
have
ever
played
because
he
is
doing
a
lot,
without
doing
anything
physically.
We
had
already
thought
that
this
role
would
be
an
underplay.
Usually,
to
make
someone
appear
powerful,
we
make
him
very
loud,
but
it
was
not
needed
here.
The
power
was
in
him,
it
was
not
necessary
to
show
it.
Now
the
film
has
released,
people
have
praised
Rajveer
Singh
a
lot,
so
I
am
very
happy
about
this.
Mahesh
Manjrekar
has
been
praised
so
much.
I
am
very
happy
with
the
film.
Every
day
the
collection
of
the
film
is
increasing.
I
will
not
leave
Antim
till
the
last.
It's
not
just
about
the
film,
it's
about
people
coming
back
to
the
theatres,
enjoying
the
cinema.
It
was
very
important
to
create
this
atmosphere
again
in
theatres.
Now
that
more
and
more
people
have
taken
the
vaccine,
I
want
them
all
to
come
back
to
the
theatres
and
enjoy
our
films.
Q.
Some
of
your
fans
were
seen
bursting
firecrackers
in
the
theatre.
What
do
you
want
to
tell
them?
A.
Yes,
there
were
some
fans
who
have
burst
crackers
and
this
is
very
wrong.
Many
incidents
have
happened
in
the
past
such
that
there
has
been
a
fire
inside
theatres,
people
have
lost
their
lives.
So
what
is
the
use
of
such
a
celebration!
I
didn't
like
this
at
all.
I
respect
the
sentiments
of
the
fans,
but
it
is
wrong
to
burn
crackers
in
theatres.
Then
I
saw
another
video
that
fans
are
bathing
my
poster
with
milk.
I
understand
there
is
a
welcoming
sentiment
behind
this,
but
the
milk
you
are
shedding,
let
me
tell
you
that
my
poster
does
not
drink
milk.
I
don't
drink
myself,
why
will
my
poster
drink?
If
you
want
to
feed,
then
there
are
many
such
children,
who
do
not
get
food
to
eat,
you
can
go
and
feed
them.
Q.
Talking
about
hero
worship,
who
is
your
favorite
actor?
A.
As
an
actor,
I
loved
Yusuf
sahab's
work.
Then
I
loved
watching
films
of
Dharam
ji,
Dev
Sahab,
Shatrughan
Sahab,
Shashi
Kapoor
ji,
all
of
them
had
their
own
quality
of
acting,
due
to
which
I
liked
their
work
very
much.
Q.
Movies
are
also
facing
the
big
problem
of
piracy.
What
do
you
want
to
say
on
this
as
an
actor
and
producer?
A.
Look,
people
themselves
have
to
be
responsible
for
this.
If
someone
just
recorded
it
from
the
screen
and
gave
it
to
you,
so
it's
your
job
not
to
watch
it.
Talking
about
Radhe
itself,
we
had
kept
the
price
of
that
film
Rs
249
only.
I
heard
that
Radhe
has
become
the
most
pirated
bollywood
film
ever.
If
someone
went
to
see
that
in
the
theatre,
he
would
have
spent
250
to
300
rupees.
But
here
the
entire
family
can
watch
the
film
in
just
249.
10
people
can
watch
a
film
at
the
same
time
for
the
same
price.
But
now
if
you
will
do
piracy
after
this
too,
so
what
can
I
say?
Q.
Can
we
expect
a
movie
announcement
on
your
birthday?
A.
Don't
know
about
the
announcement,
but
currently
we
are
working
on
Dabangg
4,
it's
story
is
almost
complete.
Then
there
is
a
Sajid's
film,
at
the
moment
there
is
a
little
confusion
about
it's
title.
I
think
we
are
going
to
ask
the
fans
only
that
choose
between
'Kabhi
Eid
Kabhi
Diwali' and
'Bhaijaan';
decide
what
you
want.
Apart
from
this,
there
is
an
Anees
Bazmee
film
and
then
there
is
Tiger
3,
I
am
almost
done
shooting
for
it.
Also,
I
am
producing
2-
3
small
budget
films
under
SKF
(Salman
Khan
FIlms).
Q.
Will
new
actors
be
seen
in
SKF
films?
A.
Yes,
we
put
money
and
launch
new
faces
and
then
take
care
of
them.
We
don't
launch
big
stars
(Laughs).
Q.
Are
you
planning
to
come
with
a
Eid
release?
A.
Right
now
it
does
not
seem
that
any
film
is
going
to
come
on
Eid.
My
next
film
will
come
directly
either
on
Diwali,
or
even
after
that.
Although
a
film
of
SKF
is
going
to
come
on
Eid,
but
I
am
not
in
it.
It
is
a
very
lovely
film,
whose
name
is
Bakre
Ki
Eid,
the
story
of
a
boy
and
a
goat.
At
the
moment
it
is
such
that
when
the
film
will
be
ready,
we
will
release
it.
We
will
not
wait
for
Eid
or
Diwali.
So
many
films
are
backlogged
because
of
Covid
and
now
all
are
coming,
so
there
is
no
choice.
We
also
have
limited
cinema
halls.
