'Tubelight': Salman Khan REVEALS the reason for doing this Kabir Khan directorial

Salman Khan's 'Tubelight' has undoubtedly been one the most talked about movies of the year with its trailer winning a lot of praises for the team. While everyone is having high hopes for the movie, Salman has recently revealed that there was a special reason for him to do 'Tubelight'.

During a recent chat session with his fans on micro-blogging site Twitter, when one his fans asked him about if 'Tubelight' is something Salman has never done, he replied affirmatively and admitted that is the reason he chose to do this Kabir Khan directorial.

He also averred that the movie is special because he is sharing the screen space with his brother Sohail and said that the two just behaved they do in their real lives.

"A film like this I have never done and that's the reason why I wanna do it. The best thing about this film is that I get to play this character with my real brother. So there is no acting involved, its just how we are in our real lives, we played exactly like that," Salman said in the video he posted on Twitter.

 


During the chat session, the 'Sultan' actor also spoke about the toughest scene of 'Tubelight' and said, "Everything was really simple but emotionally it was quite disturbing because Sohail was playing my real brother and Sohail goes to war and I am just wondering where he is going to come back to me, to be with me or I am going to be left alone all my life. And that is one emotion, as brother, that really hurts."


Interestingly, this is isn't the first time Salman will be sharing the screen space. The Khan brothers have earlier worked together in 'Veer', 'Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya?', 'God Tussi Great Ho' etc.

Talking about 'Tubelight', the movie is based on the backdrop of 1962 Indo-China war. Apart from Salman-Sohail, the movie also stars Chinese actress Zhu Zhu. The movie is slated to release on Eid this month.
