Salman Khan makes an appeal to multi-national employers: “Increase the salary of your employees this month so that they can watch Sikandar, L2 Empuraan, Jaat!”

Salman revealed, “I love Mohanlal as an actor. And a very big actor is directing it, right?” When reminded that Prithviraj Sukumaran is directing it, he replied, “I think it’s going to be an excellent film. I would like to appeal to all multinational companies that they should increase the salaries of their employees. Unko bonus bhi de dena chahiye so that people can watch L2 Empuraan, Sikandar and also Jaat!”

The superstar was informed how South superstars speak highly of them and the brotherhood he shares with them. At this point, a journalist pointed out that even heroines of the South praise him. Salman Khan raised laughs as he quipped, “That’s really sweet. If the heroines think I am like brotherhood to them (sic), that’s really sweet (smiles).”

He then said on a serious note, “Ram Charan, Taarak (Jr NTR) etc. have grown up in front of me. They were just starting out at that time. I knew Venky (Venkatesh) really well. We have been friends for 30-35 years. I also know Chiru garu (Chiranjeevi) well. I even did a Thums Up commercial with him. In fact, I was the first one to start working with South directors from our generation. I have worked with K. Murali Mohana Rao. I also did Love (1991) and Jaagruti (1992) with Suresh Krissna.”

Sikandar releases in cinemas on March 30. Jaat, meanwhile, stars Sunny Deol in an action-packed avatar. It's all set to arrive in theatres on April 10.
