As of now, the superstar will be seen in Tiger 3 alongside Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi, as well as a cameo appearance in Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback film Pathaan. Soon he’ll be shooting for Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali, No Entry 2, Bajrangi Bhaijaan 2 and many more.

Salman Khan said, “It has been a wonderful experience working with him. I have known Chiru Garu for the longest time. He has also been a friend. His son (Ram Charan) is also a friend. He has done such a fantastic job in RRR. I just wished him on his birthday, and on the success of his film. I am very proud of him. It feels so good that he is doing so well. But I wonder why our films are not doing so well in the south. Their films are doing so well here.”

Talking about why South films work and what should Bollywood filmmakers do about it, the actor said, “They (the south Indian film industry) have always believed in heroism, so have we. When you come out of the theatre, you need heroism. Here, apart from one or two people, we are not making heroism films. We should restart making those larger-than-life heroism films. I am doing that only.”
