Mumbai: Salman Khan had visited Kapil Sharma’s show a number of times in the past to promote his film. Interestingly, the latter shared stage with the Bollywood heavyweight while promoting Firangi on Bigg Boss 11.
Kapil, who shares a great relationship with a number of Bollywood biggies, had apparently shown rushes of Firangi to Salman. And the superstar was mighty impressed.
According to a report in India.com, Salman is extremely happy for Kapil.
During an interaction with India.com, an elated Kapil said, “Salman bhai pleasantly surprised me. He had already seen the Frirangi trailer and even before I could talk about the film, he congratulated me.”
“He said that he loved the production value and loved the fact that I was not just sticking to comedy,” he added.
Firangi is Kapil’s second film as an actor and first venture as a producer. The trailer of the film garnered massive hits and fans of the star comedian are thrilled to watch the film which is slated to release on December 1.
In the film, Kapil exhibits a variety of emotions and it will be interesting to see him do something out of his comfort zone.
“Salman bhai pointed out that the best part about Firangi is I have moved away from what the audience would already be expecting from me. They will go in or ignore the film thinking that it is yet another comedy affair since that’s all they have seen me doing so far. But in Firangi, they will get to see me doing more than just cracking jokes or acting funny and witty,” Kapil said.
Abbas-Mustan had launched Kapil in Bollywood with their film Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon. The film did moderately well at the Box Office.
