Salman will be seen in a special appearance in Riteish’s second regional production, which also marks the latter’s debut in Marathi films as an actor. “He (Salman) offered to be part of the film. He was gracious enough to tell me that he wants to do a scene in the film,” says Riteish.

“Salman wanted to speak in Marathi as his mother is a Maharashtrian. He speaks great Marathi. We did a fun scene together,” he adds. Riteish is excited to get an opportunity to work with the Dabangg (2010) actor. “I have worked with most actors. He was the only one I did not work with. To do a film with him, that too his debut Marathi film, is special,” says Riteish.
