Couldnt' Do Radhe Due To Date Issues, Says Deepak Dobriyal

Actor Deepak Dobriyal on Tuesday said he was going to collaborate with superstar Salman Khan on his upcoming film "Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai" but couldn't sign the project due to scheduling conflicts. Dobriyal played a negative role in Salman's "Dabangg 2", the two came together for Sooraj Barjataya's "Prem Ratan Dhan Payo", in which he played his best friend.

"We were going to collaborate on 'Radhe' but I couldn't be part of it due to date issues. It was a positive role. It would be unfair now to talk about the role. We couldn't adjust the dates as I had the promotions of 'Angrezi Medium' and then another film of mine got pushed so things didn't work out," Dobriyal told PTI.

"Radhe" will be produced by Sohail Khan and Reel Life Production Pvt Limited, under the banner of Salman Khan Films.

Dobriyal, who is busy promoting his upcoming release "Angrezi Medium", said he is always ready to do a film with the 54-year-old actor as they share a close bond.

"I do one film at a time and Salman knows this. If anything interesting comes up will surely work with him," he added.

The actor said he shares a great equation with the superstar both on and off screen.

"During 'Dabangg 2' we were cordial but then we started getting along towards the end of the film. Then during 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' we became good friends as we were working for a year and half on the film. We would play football, cricket, table tennis, swimming, we would talk a lot. It was great fun."

"Angrezi Medium" stars Irrfan Khan, Radhika Madan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Kiku Sharda, Pankaj Tripathi and Ranvir Shorey. The film directed by Homi Adajania and produced by Dinesh Vijan is scheduled to to be released on March 20.
