New Delhi:
Salman Khan is apparently too busy to feature in Katrina Kaif's sister Isabelle's Bollywood debut film. According to a
mid-day report Salman opted out of a special dance sequence from upcoming film
Time To Dance. The 52-year-old actor, who was
filming Race 3 in Ladakh recently, now wants to focus on his upcoming Da-Bangg tour and the Ali Abbas Zafar-directed
Bharat. In
Time To Dance, Isabelle plays the role of a ballroom dancer while Sooraj Pancholi (the film's hero) is a street dancer. A source told
mid-day: "The protagonists will be seen performing various dance styles including waltz and Tango. Salman is not comfortable with these dance forms. Also, he wants to focus on his Da-Bangg Tour, and then, Bharat. Since the movie will demand most of his time, Salman decided to bow out of the commitment."
Salman Khan launched Isabelle Kaif in Canadian film
Dr Cabbie, which released in 2014. He's also co-producing
Time To Dance, which went on floors in London in April. The film is directed by Stanley D'Costa.
Salman Khan is neck-deep in work with the upcoming tour and post-production work of
Race 3, which opens in theatres on Eid. Ali Abbas Zafar is scouting for locations for
Bharat, which is a remake of Korean film
An Ode To My Father. Once that's done, Salman Khan will start filming
Bharat. The film
also stars Priyanka Chopra (her first film after 2016's
Jai GangaaJal).
Salman Khan is also producing his brother-in-law
Aayush Sharma's debut film, titled
Loveratri, and he is expected to begin
filming Dabangg 3 with brother Arbaaz Khan soon.
