Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala

Even as his first release with director Ali Abbas Zafar, 'Tiger Zinda Hai', is underway, Salman Khan has already given his nod to his second outing with the director for a film called Bharat. Interestingly, the title of the film, which will be produced by brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri, belonged to Khan's friend, Sajid Nadiadwala, who was happy to give up his acquisition for the actor.

Talking about the title that had been acquired by Nadiadwala in the '90s for a patriotic outing, a source says, "When Atul wanted this name for his film with Salman, Sajid instantly gifted it since he had no plans of using it in the near future. He wanted to help them in every way possible." The development was confirmed by Agnihotri's spokesperson.
