‘Salman Khan was surrounded by 25,000 people in Chandni Chowk, had to hide him in a car’: Kabir Khan

Kabir said that they had to bring in some “decoy cars” and had to hide Salman in one of the cars to get him out of the area. “Then we had to bring some decoy cars, a few Innovas, we had to hide Salman in the car, found another way to get Salman out of that place, then we could leave. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to leave. 25,000 people were around us, that’s his stardom,” he recalled.

After Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Kabir and Salman worked together in 2017’s Tubelight, which did not impress the audience.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan also starred Kareena Kapoor, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Harshali Malhotra. Kabir also spoke about Harshali’s casting in the film and said that since Munni’s character in the film did not have any dialogues, he had told casting director Mukesh Chhabra to look at faces from across the country and a few countries abroad as well. “She should just look like she is from the mountains. Because language is not a barrier,” he said.
