“I knew in my head what I wanted to do with this character,” Salman Khan on playing cop in Antim

“I knew in my head what I wanted to do with this character,” Salman Khan on playing cop in Antim

Starring Salman Khan and Aayush Sharma in principal roles, Antim: The Final Truth has been performing well at the domestic box office in India ever since its theatrical release on 26th November, 2021.

Directed by Mahesh Manjrekar, the film started off on a low note, but the business grew considerably on Saturday and Sunday. The audience has been raving about Salman Khan and Aayush Sharma’s performances in the film. The Dabangg (2010) actor is happy to know that the film has found audiences’ acceptance.


Antim: The Final Truth features Khan in the character of a cop. The actor has played a cop in several successful films before, including the Dabangg franchise, but his cop character in his latest outing is different in more ways than one.

When asked if he was nervous about playing Rajveer Singh in Antim, the actor said, “I knew in my head what I wanted to do with the character; I wanted to play it exactly how it was narrated to me. Mahesh also had the same thought. But when I started playing the character, I got scared that I am not doing anything. But then I drew confidence from the fact that Aayush was playing his character in the way that I thought I should play mine. And if I would play my character that way too, then his character would get overshadowed.”

The superstar adds that both could not have played the characters the same way. “Both of us could not have played our characters the same way. Aayush plays a powerful man but he has got that anger in him. My character in Antim sports a smile. Even if he’d exercise his authority, he would do it with a smile. So he knows his power. Even when he is having a conversation with the politicians, he will still have a smile on his face. That is the way I portrayed my character. It was good fun,” he concludes.

Antim is running successfully in cinemas in India.

‘Really Absurd’: Streaming giants are deleting fan-favourite 'Premalu' to force-feed its Hindi remake

Highlights

  • Premalu has disappeared from JioHotstar just as the trailer for its Hindi remake Prem Keetanu was released.
  • Fans have questioned why the Malayalam hit was removed ahead of the remake’s October theatrical release.
  • The remake’s trailer has already faced criticism from viewers who compared it unfavourably with the original.

There is something particularly awkward about launching a remake while the film it is based on has suddenly become harder to watch.

That is exactly what has happened with Prem Keetanu, the Hindi remake of Malayalam blockbuster Premalu. The trailer for the Veer Pahariya-starrer dropped on Monday, but instead of simply debating whether the remake can live up to the original, fans found themselves asking another question: where did Premalu go?
