Veteran screen writer Salim Khan has reviewed some of his son’s films, including the recent Eid release, Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, which he says he did not like.
In an interview with Dainik Bhaskar, Salim Khan said, “Radhe is not a great film at all, but commercial cinema has a responsibility that every person can get money. From artists to producers, distributors, exhibitors and every stakeholder should get the money. The one who buys the cinema must get the money. Due to this, the cycle of cinema making and business goes on. On this basis, Salman has performed. Stakeholders of this film are at advantage. Otherwise, Radhe is not that great a film.”
Salim Khan, however, also had word on Salman’s previous movies. “The film prior to this Dabangg 3 was different. Bajrangi Bhaijaan was good and totally different,” he said in the same interview.
Radhe, also starred Randeep Hooda, Disha Patni, Jackie Shroff, Sangay Tsheltrim, Gautam Gulati and others. The film had a hybrid release in theatres and ZEE5’s pay per view service ZEEPlex simultaneously.
The movie received mostly negative reviews, and even became Salman Khan’s lowest-rated movie on IMDb.
A statement from Salman’s legal team, DSK Legal clarified on Thursday, that the superstar is suing Kamaal R Khan aka KRK for defamatory claims in his Radhe review. KRK said that here on, he will not review any of Salman’s films.
