First SRK, now Salman?

SRK did the opening act in KAAL. The ‘Kaal Dhamaal’ song, featuring SRK and Malaika Arora-Khan, was one of the key reasons why KAAL took such a massive initial. Now Salman Khan might be seen as the ‘item boy’ in brother Sohail Khan’s home-production FIGHT CLUB.

Reportedly, Sohail has decided to request Bhai [Salman is affectionately called Bhai by his near and dear ones. Bhai means brother here, not a don, please note!] to perform on the opening track of his forthcoming flick FIGHT CLUB, which stars Suniel Shetty, Sohail himself, Zayed Khan, Dino Morea, Ritesh Deshmukh, Ashmit Patel, Aashish Chowdhry, Rahul Dev, Dia Mirza, Amrita Arora, Neha Dhupia and Yash Tonk.

How do you get to know these things? FIGHT CLUB director Vicky Chopra was caught unawares when this writer called to verify the development, Sohail may have discussed the idea with someone, but nothing is confirmed yet. We’ll request Bhai if need be. [pauses] If it benefits the project, why not? If it happens, expect a chartbusting number for sure!
