Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya were considered as one of the most successful duos of the '90s. Their last collaboration in 2015 for Prem Ratan Dhan Payo also created a buzz. Now, as Barjatiya plans his next, it is said that Salman has willingly come on board for the project.
The tender love story holds a special place in Barjatya's heart as it is inspired by his 32-year marriage to his wife Vineeta. "The film traces a couple, in a joint family, from their early days of marriage to the autumn of their lives. Sooraj has been working on the concept for almost five years. Salman had loved the idea and begged the director to develop it further. Since the superstar had a lot of free time during the lockdown, he revived the conversation around the movie and joined Sooraj as a co-writer in May," said a source.
