'Today you can't say if salman khan comes and stands on the scree

Salman Khan is busy promoting Tiger Zinda
Hai at Mehboob studios, Bandra. Despite a
persistent throat problem Salman is
ensuring that he meets every media person
and gives them his undivided attention.
While he's promoting a film that everyone is
already declaring a bonafide hit Tiger
Zinda Hai, the actor is coming back off his
last release getting a lukewarm response at
the box office. Tubelight was a
disappointment for not just his fans but
Salman too seemed to have taken the
verdict of his faithful admirers to heart. Also

In a year that proved both star power and
content (Judwaa 2 and Shubh Mangal
Savadhan) are trump cards for the industry,
Salman has his own take on lessons learnt in
2017. In an exclusive chat with
BollywoodLife he says, "Today you can't say
if Salman Khan comes and stands on the
screen the film will work!My take home
lesson is when people want to see me as a
hero I just need to keep playing the hero. So
for example Tubelight is an amazing film to
watch on television but on screen and
especially on a festive date it could be Eid or
Diwali or it could be Christmas you need to
come up with a celebration. You need to
have that excitement of people going in
because these are all happy people, they
want to be in that festive mood so when
they come out of the theater they have to be
twice as charged. So I think for Tubelight
both the aspects were there that don't miss
the Eid date, numbers are going to be high.
But I was not in favour of Eid because it is a
beautiful emotional film, when you watch it
on television and not on a festive date it is
phenomenal. When you go with a mindset
that three hours we want to enjoy and
suddenly you are finding moments where
you are crying that was a problem. But now
when it has come on television I am getting
calls. I knew that was a problem with the
release date. Tubelight was a sweet
emotional beautiful film but the audience
wanted to go and see Salman Khan as
Radhe.
In his exclusive chat with BollywoodLife,
Salman spoke about how he respects the
verdict of his fans and their word is final.
Salman also added that he's spending a lot
of time on getting the right script before
saying yes to a film. One of the reasons why
he agreed to do Tiger Zinda Hai is also
because it didn't seem like a sequel worth
doing just for the sake of it.
Salman says, "The most important thing is
that making a sequel just for the sake of
making a sequel as a proposal, you do not
have your script, it doesn't work at all. I
wanted to do Wanted. Title and all
everything was registered, there is no good
script. After Dabangg 2 it has taken us so
much time to work on Dabangg 3.
Stay tuned for our rest of our chat with
Salman coming up on BollywoodLife.
