Salman Khan Locks Director Sooraj Barjatya's 'Prem Ki Shaadi' As His Next: Report
Mumbai, July 8 - Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has been in talks with his director friend Sooraj Barjatya for their next films together. The filmmaker has been working on the script for a long time and it was recently reported that it might take a few more months to complete the entire script work. ## During this period, the superstar was also interested in a film offered by producer Karan Johar, but now, according to a report in Mid-Day, the "Dabangg" star has made up his mind and picked Barjatya's film that is reportedly titled "Prem Ki Shaadi". ## It is said that Salman loved the script when it was first narrated to him in 2020 but due to the pandemic, the development of the film got delayed. Now, the duo is set to take the movie on floors next month in August as the pre-production reportedly commenced last month. ## "Romantic dramas, set in a family, are a success at the box office today, as seen with Zara Hatke Zara Bachke and Satyaprem Ki Katha. Salman is fond of such stories, which is why he had immediately given his nod to Prem Ki Shaadi. However, finalizing the screenplay took time. The team began pre-production last month, setting the stage for an August shoot", reports Mid-Day. ## As reported earlier, "Prem Ki Shaadi" revolves around a nuclear family. It tells the journey of a couple, starting from their marriage, to raising their children and going strong till their old age. While Salman plays the title role, the leading lady will soon be finalized. The first schedule is said to be kicked off in Mumbai and the makers are eyeing Diwali 2024 release. ## Meanwhile, Salman is currently gearing up for the release of his much-awaited "Tiger 3" which is slated for Diwali this year. ## Stay tuned...
