  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,November 23 2012]

Few days back speculations were rife that Sohail Khan’s ambitious project, the Salman Khan starrer ‘Sher Khan’ is not going to take off.

Besides Salman, the movie boasts of having a tiger as the other lead. Talks were that owing to lack of availability of a Bengal Tiger the project has been canned. However of late Sohail clarified to sources that ‘Sher Khan’ is indeed happening.

Talking to sources in an interview Sohail revealed that ‘Sher Khan’ in fact is a two-hero project - one being Salman, the human tiger and the other one the animal.

Apparently since there will be issue for roping in a real tiger, the filmmaker is opting for computer-generated one. The team ‘Sher Khan’ is keen not to attract any problem from the Animal Welfare Board and so they are willing to go for the unreal tiger instead.

Besides they are also being cautious about Salman’s neurological condition, which can trigger off from any kind of stress and hence they don’t want to take any chances and are playing safe.

According to Sohail, ‘Sher Khan’ will go on floors in Jan 2013.
