Salman Khan to shoot Dabangg 3 and Bharat simultaneously?

Salman Khan's fans are happy that the actor is returning as Tiger in Yash Raj Films' Tiger Zinda Hai but, believe it or not, his diehard fans are waiting to see their favourite superstar in the role of quirky Chulbul Pandey in the next instalment of Dabangg.

There have been many speculations around Dabangg 3 in the market. The film was supposed to mount floors months ago, but due to Salman Khan's packed date diary, producer Arbaaz Khan had to wait way too long.

But now it seems that Bhaijaan has finally allotted some dates to his brother for Dabangg 3. Salman recently revealed that he will be simultaneously shooting for Dabangg 3 and his brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri’s period drama Bharat. Both films are expected to start rolling from early next year.

While Arbaaz Khan directed the second part, Dabangg 2, after his fall out with Dabangg's director Abhinav Kashyap, the third instalment of the franchise will be directed by Prabhu Deva.

In a statement, Arbaaz said, "We had already announced some months ago that Prabhu Deva is directing the film and we met to discuss work."

Meanwhile, Salman Khan begins shoot for his next Race 3 on 9th November.
