According to an Asian Age report, Salman’s character, Chubul Pandey, will be shown attending college in the movie. It added that Salman will feature in a new version of the peppy dance number. The report quoted a source as saying, “Malaika Arora’s foot-tapping item number ‘Munni Badnam Hui’ will be re-created and will feature Salman. This time, it will be presented to the audiences with a different twist. The lyrics will undergo a drastic change too. And Salman has decided to wear the overcoat of this Badnami himself and the song will be called Munna Badnaam Hua.”

Directed by Prabhudheva, Dabangg 3 also stars Sonakshi Sinha. Portions of the film were shot in Madhya Pradesh recently. Produced by Arbaaz Khan, Dabangg 3 will see Kannada actor Sudeep play the antagonist. The first film in the series, Dabangg, was directed by Anubhav Kashyap, while Dabangg 2 was helmed by Salman’s brother Arbaaz Khan. All the films have featured Salman and Sonakshi in lead roles. Sonu Sood was the antagonist in the first film while Prakash Raj played the villain in the second one.
