Salman Khan to not make cameo in Singham Again
According to a report in 'Bollywood Hungama', there were plans for Salman to reprise his iconic role as Chulbul Pandey from the 'Dabangg' franchise in a cameo, but now, with ongoing security concerns and the death threats against Salman, the makers have scrapped the idea of having Khan's cameo in the film.
"The one-day shoot was scheduled to take place at Golden Tobacco in Mumbai; however, owing to the sudden demise of Baba Siddiqui, the shoot was cancelled. Rohit and Ajay then had discussions internally and felt that it would be insensitive to request Salman Khan to shoot amid all the controversy. The duo was racing against time to submit their film to the censors and has decided to submit the film without the appearance of Salman Khan," a source told 'Bollywood Hungama'.
The source further continued, adding, "Shooting with Salman just a day or two after the death of Baba Siddiqui was insensitive. Rohit had to submit 'Singham Again' to the censors by Friday, October 18. That's when they took the tough call to move on and respect the privacy of Salman Khan."
