OMG! Did You Know Salman Khan Was Offered A Film On TALIBAN?

Salman Khan‘s recent performance in ‘Antim: The Final Truth’ has fans swooning over his handsome cop avatar.

But there was one particular shelved film that Salman was offered prior to this and it’s quite a surprise!

A Bollywood Hungama report has revealed that Salman was offered a film on the Taliban by director Neeraj Pandey. A source quotes, “Neeraj Pandey had once offered a script to Salman Khan. The name of the film was Zindabaad. Like some of Neeraj’s ventures, this one, too, was based on global terrorism. It had something to do with the Taliban and how the terror outfit kidnaps the character, which was to be essayed by Salman. How Salman escapes from the clutches of the Taliban formed the crux of the film.

However, Zindabaad never actually made it on floors. This seemed like a very promising subject. Neeraj Pandey has certain sensibilities and it is nice to see how he merges content with entertainment. His films like Special 26 (2013) and Baby (2015) were much loved. Special 26, in fact, gave a new direction to Akshay Kumar’s career. The same can be said about the Special Ops web series, created by Neeraj Pandey and which turned the tide for Kay Kay Menon. Who knows, if both had joined hands that too for such a large-scale subject, it could have hugely benefited both. Nevertheless, here’s hoping Zindabaad materializes someday,” the source continued.

Neeraj is known for directing and producing some of Bollywood’s biggest hits like M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story, ‘Rustom’ and more.
