 "'Malaika Arora had differences with Salman Khan over her outfit in Dabangg, they are conservative Muslims,' reveals Abhinav Kashyap")
In an interview with SCREEN recently, Abhinav Kashyap, director of Dabangg and Besharam, spoke about his experience of working with Salman Khan and revealed a lot of detials.
The filmmaker was quoted saying, “ Salman is never involved. He is not even interested in acting, and he hasn’t been since the last 25 years. He does a favour by turning up to work. He is more into the power of being a celebrity, but he is not interested in acting. He is a gunda (goon).”
The interview has gone viral and now, the _Dabangg_ director has spoken about the song Munni Badnaam featuring Malaika Arora.
Kashyap revealed, “Malaika had her own differences with Salman over her outfits. They want their women covered up. So, they didn’t want her to do the item song.”
He added, “Arbaaz wasn’t keen about Malaika doing it. He didn’t like the fact that his wife will be labelled as an ‘item girl’. Arbaaz and Salman, no matter whatever they say, are actually very conservative Muslims.”
The filmmaker continued saying, “But Malaika is a strong and independent woman; she makes her own choices. When she was offered this, she said yes. It took some persuasion for Arbaaz to agree.”
“She told him that it’s nothing vulgar, just dancing only, and it’s all family around in the song, what are you scared of? And of course, that song went on to break so many records,” added Kashyap.
On his brother Anurag Kashyap
Abhinav Kashyap explained why his brother took the step of moving away from the film that was eventually directed by late actor and filmmaker Satish Kaushik.
“The same happened with him (Anurag Kashyap) in Tere Naam. How would he guide or advise me? He told me before Dabangg that you won’t be able to make a film with Salman,” said the filmmaker.
