Over the past couple of days, speculation has swirled around Chulbul Pandey being a part of the Singham franchise. Several clickbait social media handles and media outlets have been buzzing with rumours suggesting that they have witnessed the iconic role of Chulbul Pandey from the âDabangg' franchise in the upcoming film. However, an industry insider has firmly dismissed these claims, labelling them as "untrue and baseless rumours."
According to the source, "All the stories surrounding Chulbul Pandey being a part of Singham are fake and baseless rumors. No such announcement has been made by any production house regarding the same, nor has megastar Salman Khan shot for any such cameo."
The source further added that there has been no official announcement from the makers of the production house producing the film. This statement aims to quell the frenzy surrounding the casting news, emphasizing that any claims about Chulbul Pandey's involvement in the screenplay are unfounded. The fake news has gone viral, as fans have long wanted to see Salman Khan in this cinematic universe since Rohit Shetty revealed his desire to include him. Unfortunately, fans will have to wait some more time to see this union happen.
