On Wednesday, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan joined the cast of Chiranjeevi-starrer Godfather, which is the Telugu remake of Malayalam hit Lucifer. And, the news was confirmed by Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi himself. Now, reportedly, the Dabangg actor is all set to make a big entry with his on-screen appearance in the movie.
According to a report in the Times Of India, Salman’s entry will be an interesting one. “This plan for Salman’s entry is going to be an interesting one. His opening scene will have a medley of all his action scenes from those South films which were later remade in Hindi with Salman. So fans can expect iconic action scenes from films like Pokhri and many more, recreated in Godfather.”
Chiranjeevi had posted a photo with Salman where the two are holding a bouquet of flowers as he welcomed the Kick actor on board. He captioned it as: “Welcome aboard #Godfather, Bhai @BeingSalmanKhan! Your entry has energized everyone & the excitement has gone to next level. Sharing screen with you is an absolute joy. Your presence will no doubt give that magical #KICK to the audience.”
