Salman Khan back as Prem, sports ‘desi’ look

Mumbai: Superstar Salman Khan on Tuesday literally teased his fans with an initial poster of his forthcoming collaboration with Sooraj Barjatya, “Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo”. Back as a character named Prem, the actor sports a truly desi look in tune for the film’s Diwali release.

“Good afternoon. Welcoming Sooraj Barjatya’s Prem again #PremRatanDhanPayo @Rajshri @foxstarhindi,” Salman posted on his Twitter page on Tuesday afternoon.

He shared this with a trailer poster of the film, which marks Salman’s reunion with Barjatya after 16 years.

“Iss Diwali Prem is back,” reads the poster, while also revealing that the film’s trailer will release on Thursday.

Salman is seen with his back towards to the camera, but it’s easy to guess that the fit star looks suave in a royal blue kurta with a dhoti and a stole.

“Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo” is likely to portray Salman’s “sincerity and innocence”, and perhaps a notch higher than his last bumper success “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” did.

The much-anticipated film will release on Nov 12, a day after the festival of Diwali.

Presented by Fox Star Studios, “Prem Ratan Dhan Payo” is produced By Rajshri Productions, with whom Salman has earlier worked in films like “Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!” and “Hum Saath-Saath Hain”.
