Scriptwriter Salim Khan is back in action and this time for his son`s next film Sher Khan. The veteran writer says it`s time to pass at the legacy and that he has a certain quantity of expertise that his son Sohail Khan is using for his directorial debut. He's going to officially supervise the scripting of Sher Khan, in an effort to star his son Salman within the lead role, while Sohail will wear the director`s hat for the primary time for the film.
"Jo maine seekha hai, jo haasil kiya hai woh deke jaana hai. (Whatever I`ve learnt I NEED TO pass on). It`s as much as my children in the event that they need to learn from my experiences or not. My advantage as a writer is that I`ve matured with the years. Stars get old, writers mature. So I SUPPOSE I'VE a definite wisdom of expertise that Sohail is using," said Salim Khan.
Two writers - Rumi Jaffery and Dilip Shukla - are on board for the film and Salim saab might be billed within the credit titles for his special creative contribution.
Salim Khan, who churned out hit scripts like Haati Mere Saathi, Zanjeer, Sholay and Deewar with Javed Akhtar, says he's lending his experience to his sons.
"I am there within the scriptwriting strategy of Sher Khan expressly to show their mistakes, to not breathe down their necks. I don`t need to do away with the credit from whatever those kids are doing," he said.
"I am a farmer by nature. I LOVE to nurture talent up to trees. It's important to have seen when saplings are planted, protection is placed across the saplings to maintain them clear of predators. I'M like that protection for these children who're doing Sher Khan, athough I`ve to confess they`re able to taking care of themselves."
Apparently prior to now on some occasions when Salim Saab`s suggestion was not accepted by Salman and Sohail the flicks bombed.
"I don`t intend to make them selfconscious by constantly questioning them. They're in a position to taking care of the script. But since they`ve asked me to assist them I presume they suspect I`m better informed and cleverer than them."
"The only thing that I certainly have which my sons don`t have is experience. It`s that have which I'M lending them. We`re friends working within the same team, plus there`s that regard they have got for me. They don`t cross that line of decorum and that i don`t demand anything from them."
Sohail says this father "is the script doctor at the project".
"He`s guiding we all. My other writers Dililp Shukla and Rumi search for to him up to Salman and that i. So there`s no clash of interest. All of us are reckoning on him to make `Sher Khan` one of the crucial special films in bhai`s (Salman) career. We`ve been engaged on the script for the last 365 days. And we`ve just locked it 10 days ago. I start shooting in October," said Sohail.
"However if Arbaaz bhai`s Dabangg 2 needs extra time, I`d willingly and gladly postpone Sher Khan. Arbaaz bhai is directing for the primary time. And on the moment, all of the family`s focus is on seeing`Dabangg 2 to the finish. I WILL BE ABLE TO afford to attend. Way to my father`s contribution, the screenplay of Sher Khan has turned out to be out of the world," he added.
