‘Hero’ screening: Salman hugs Zarina Wahab, clicks with Shettys
The bare-chested gimmick is no surprise, considering that this movie has been co-produced by Salman Khan Films. The performances by Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty are something to look forward to as they are the most talked about debutants this year.
“I must add that to look like a hero, you have to be fit”.
The film is a remake of Subhash Ghai’s 1983 eponymous romantic-drama which starred Jackie Shroff and Meenakshi Seshadri.
Mumbai: Actress Athiya Shetty and actor Sooraj Pancholi during a media interaction of their debut film Hero. In fact, the classic film of eighties was the debut of Jackie in B Town unlike the way this remake is for Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty.
Salman Khan is the producer of the film and he himself has sung the title track of the film.
Nikhil Advani has directed the Hero movie, and it will release on September 11, 2015.
Aditya Pancholi’s son continued, “In those 10 minutes that she was allowed to be with me”. He said, “It (established actor promoting newcomers) could also turn other way round Salman is producing the film but not acting in it. It could work against us.”
Salman Khan even went ahead to host a private screening for Sooraj and Athiya’s families. Same with Athiya, who is often touted as the next Bollywood fashionista due to her great fashion choices at events.
It is in this holy discotheque that Sooraj (Sooraj Pancholi), the leading henchman and foster son of gangster Pasha (Aditya Pancholi), first sets his eyes on Radha (Shetty), the daughter of the permanently unshaven Inspector General of Police Mathur (Tigmanshu Dhulia).
Salman Khan’s production house is bringing two news kids in the world of glitz and glamour. A lot, however, depends on the word of mouth after the first weekend.
