Salman Khan is the most bankable actor: Arbaaz

Arbaaz Khan, who makes his directorial debut this week with Dabangg 2, describes his brother Salman Khan as the most bankable actor today.

“Not only from a director’s point of view, but Salman is a star for everybody.. he is the most bankable actor currently,” said Arbaaz during one of the many promotional events for Dabangg 2.

“One can see it from his past few releases. He is clearly a winner and obviously way ahead of his contemporaries in terms of box-office collection”

When asked about the pressure of directing the second Dabangg film, Arbaaz said “Pressure is there as it’s (film industry) a very competitive line with huge fan following for Bollywood. So whether it’s the first film, second film or third film, everyone expects the film to be successful at the box office”

“As far as sequel is concerned, obviously there is a lot of expectation.. We only thought of making a soulful film with no business parameters involved” he added.

Arbaaz, who is also co-producing the film along with Malaika Arora, said actress-wife is returning in the sequel in her famous Munni avatar.

“Malaika is doing a brief appearance in one of the songs” he said.
