Salman Khan and Sonakshi Sinha starrer “Dabangg 3” shooting is going on at a rapid pace. There are a lot of interesting things connected with this third installment from the “Dabangg” franchise. After long years Prabhu Deva is directing Salman Khan. The South Indian icon first directed Bhaijaan in “Wanted” almost a decade ago. Another interesting twist is Kichcha Sudeep will be playing the antagonist opposite Salman Khan’s Robinhood-like cop Chulbul Pandey.

Salman Never Thought Sudeep Would Say Yes

Recently during an interview, the Kannada actor said that the entire team of “Dabangg 3” including the Bollywood superstar Salman Khan never thought that he will be saying yes to the project. However, Sudeep proved all of them wrong by giving a nod to the project.

While discussing how the project came to him, Sudeep says, “The credit goes to Sohailji for “Dabangg 3. He proposed everybody about me and everyone thought Sudeep will refuse. Salman sir also thought the same, thinking he is a big actor what will he come and do. But later the team, including Salman Sir approached me. Prabhu Deva Sir came to Mysore to narrate the story and he hand beautifully written that role.”

The actor further adds that after hearing 50% of the story he said okay because he was getting to work with a very big personality. Sudeep also cleared that he accepted the film not because it would serve as a launchpad for him in Mumbai but only because he would get to work with Salman.

“He Is A Blessing To Have In Life,” Says Sudeep About Salman

While describing his experience of working with the “Kick” actor Sudeep said it is a blessing to have him in life as he allows only very few people in his close quarters and one must enjoy the process. The “Pehelwaan” actor further added that very rarely you get an opportunity to meet people with such achievements.
