After wrapping up the cop-drama, Salman will take a break with a trip to the US, returning to India in the first wee of September, after which he jumps into Sanjay Leela Bhansali’ Inshallah alongside Alia Bhatt. “The film was supposed to kick o by mid-August, however, owing t the tight schedules of both the leads, the shoot will now only commence in the first week of September in Mumbai,” the source informed.

After Mumbai, the romantic saga, which opens on Eid next year, will move on to the Varanasi and Florida schedules. “Like all Salman films, Inshallah will take around 100 days to be completed,” the source shared, adding that “the actor will be tied up with the project till February next year.” Incidentally, the last leg of Dabangg 3 and the beginning of Bhansali’s film will overlap with the shoot of Bigg Boss, which is returning with its 13th season next month.

The theme last year revolved around the beach. This time, it is a youth-centric set-up to lend the show a fresh touch,” the source added.
