Prabhudeva and Salman Khan team up for Dabaang 3

Salman Khan’s ‘Dabaang’ is one of the most popular franchises in Bollywood. Salman plays an eccentric cop, Chulbul Pandey in the series. After the superhit success of the first two parts, the third instalment has formally been kick-started today. Prabhudeva is directing the movie, which is expected to be an out and out mass action-packed entertainer on the lines of the first two films.

Salman will be reprising Chulbul Pandey’ part. Sonakshi Sinha and Kannada actor Sudeep are also part of the cast. ‘Dabaang 3’ is more of a prequel that will show how Pandey became the Robinhood like cop. Salman is quoted saying, “The story starts in the present and then it goes back to the past, and then comes back to the present day again. It will have a prequel portion, but only as a flashback.”

‘Dabaang 3’ is produced by Salman Khan Films and Arbaaz Khan Productions. This is Salman’s second film with Prabhudeva. They had earlier teamed up in 2009 for the blockbuster movie ‘Wanted’. Prabhudeva has also made other mass entertainers in Bollywood like ‘Rowdy Rathore’, ‘R… Rajkumar’, ‘Ramaiya Vastavaiya’, ‘Action Jackson’ and ‘Singh is Bling’.
