The 55-year-old actor Salman Khan has been hitting headlines due to the release of his film Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai and the controversies with his movie Tiger 3. Meanwhile, a word about another possible upcoming project of Salman has come ahead. The makers of the Hindi remake of Thalapathy’s Vijay’s Master have approached him for the lead role. Another report about the same has surfaced and claimed that the blockbuster star might announce things officially soon, via Pinkvilla.
According to the Mid-Day report, Murad Khetani and Endemol Shine India in association with Seven Screen Studios will produce the Hindi remake of Thalapathy Vijay’s Master. It further said that the actor was shown Thalapathy Vijay’s Master before the lockdown was imposed in 2021. The report claimed that the lockdown had slowed the process though Salman had ‘apparently agreed’ to do the film, via Pinkvilla. A report as presented by a source to a daily said, “Now, the producers will meet him again to discuss the minor tweaks in the script, the possible dates for the shoot and the director.”
The source further added that the makers are searching for A-listers to play the role of Vijay Sethupathi in Master. It informed, “By the month-end, the Khandaan will head to Goa for a vacation. If all goes well, after returning from the holiday, he will announce his new releases. Meanwhile, the producers of the Master remake are scouting for an A-list star who can reprise Vijay Sethupathi’s role and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Salman.”
About the movie, Thalapathy Vijay’s Master was a hit on screens when released in January 2021. It was also released on an OTT platform later and has managed to attract a good audience. It is an action-thriller revolving around an alcoholic professor named JD (Thalapathy Vijay) and a gangster (Vijay Sethupathi).
If everything goes well we can see Salman play Thalapathy Vijay’s role. Apart from this the actor already has Kick 2, Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali and Tiger 3 lined up for the shoot. He will also be seen in Antim: The Final Truth alongside Aayush Sharma.
