At the trailer launch event of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan shared how people were apprehensive about his selection of a particular song for the action entertainer.
The much-anticipated trailer of Bollywood star Salman Khan’s upcoming film, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Jaan was recently unveiled in a grand way at an event in Mumbai.
Prior to this, the makers of this masala entertainer had dropped the film’s songs online. One amongst them is ‘Naiyo Lagda’ sung by Kamaal Khan and Palak Muchhal. Upon its release, the romantic number had received a mixed response from the audience. While some appreciated music composer Himesh Reshammiya’s tunes, a section of the netizens trolled Salman for his peculiar dance moves.
At the trailer launch event of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, the superstar opened up on how he was called names for approving ‘Naiyo Lagda’ song, but he stuck by his decision.
“Everyone was against me for the song. ‘He has lost the plot, this is an 80s-90s track, how is it going to do well, he has become arrogant.’ I was like, ‘No, I like it.’ This is my film; I’m using the song in it.” He further added, “And it’s not like if it didn’t work, you could come and interfere for the next film. You won’t get any such opportunity. So please chill. As long as the director likes it, heroine likes it and the hero likes the song. So, we used it,” Salman shared with the media at the event.
Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan marks the Bollywood star’s comeback on the big screen in a full-fledged role after his extended appearances in Aayush Sharma’s Antim: The Final Truth and Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathaan.
Calling his break from the big screen “unusually long,” Salman said that he would change this by releasing films “every six months”.
Helmed by Farhad Samji, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is reportedly a remake of Ajith’s Tamil film, Veeram. Besides Salman Khan, the film also features Pooja Hegde, Venkatesh Daggubati, Bhumika Chawla, Shehnaaz Gill, Jassie Gill, Siddharth Nigam, Raghav Juyal, Palak Tiwari and Jagapathi Babu in pivotal roles.
