Superstar Salman Khan Advises Younger Actors To Do Two-Hero Films

Mumbai, April 21 - Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's long-awaited family action drama film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has been released in theaters today and is expected to do well at the box office.

Salman Khan stars in the film alongside Telugu actors Venkatesh, and Jagapathi Babu, among others. There was a time when two-hero films used to be the norm, especially in Bollywood, but the trend died down in the last 15-20 years.



Post the covid-19 pandemic, the chatter about making two-hero films has been peaking pace as most people feel that this is the need of the hour for the betterment of the industry. Recently, Salman Khan played a vital cameo in Shah Rukh Khan-fronted "Pathaan" which also stars John Abraham.

The cameo of Salman was a major highlight and played a big role in "Pathaan's" box office success. The two heroes will now be sharing equal screen time in "Tiger Vs. Pathaan" which begins next year and before that, SRK will be seen playing a cameo in Salman's "Tiger 3" which releases on Diwali this year.

Salman Khan seems to be a big supporter of two-hero films and he has also advised younger actors to follow this path. During a recent interview while promoting KKBKKJ, he said that whenever he faced a lull and gave a string of flops, he had no problem sharing screen space with the actors like Jackie Shroff, Sunny Deol, Akshay Kumar, etc.



The "Tiger" actor further said that if an actor feels insecure about doing two-hero films, it's quite foolish. Salman added that some actors don't want to do two-hero films as they fear that their role might get reduced if the other actor is close to the producer or director.

However, he assured the younger actors that such things never happen as everyone works for the betterment of the film. Salman also emphasized that multi-starrers also result in bigger box office collections. Hence, he advised them to not fear multi-starrers and that they should embrace this trend for their own benefit.

Interestingly, we are already seeing top actors coming together, be it Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR in "War 2" or Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff in "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan" and more such collaborations are bound to happen in the near future.
