Salman Khan in 1990s Sanam Teri Kasam?
When asked who would star in the film if it was made in the 90s, he said, “100% it would have been Salman! The innocence in his eyes, the way he looks at and holds the girl, the purity of thought and emotion—he was the perfect romantic hero of that era, and he would be our perfect Inder. When Salman sir is in a film, he makes his co-star look special because he is so special. Anyone we could have cast opposite him would be special and, of course, it would be a newcomer. His presence alone elevates his leading ladies. He was the ultimate romantic hero of the 90s!”
Vinay Sapru lauds Salman
Praising Salman, he added, “Who wouldn’t want to work with Salman sir? Like Radhika mam says, he is an institution in himself. He has been a superstar for over 30 years, and his longevity is unmatched. We are just waiting for the right script and the right time. Whenever our mentor decides, we would be honoured to work with him again.”
Salman and Vinay have worked together in the 2005 film Lucky: No Time For Love. The romance film was written and directed by Radhika and Vinay. It also starred Sneha Ullal.
