As per a recent report by Pinkvilla, Salman Khan has not charged a single penny for his appearance in the Chiranjeevi-starrer Godfather. A source close to the development of the film told the entertainment portal, “The makers of Godfather were keen to pay a handsome amount to Salman as they expect some footfalls in Hindi belts due to his presence. However, the actor was clear from the first day that he will be doing this film due to his love and respect for Chiranjeevi.” The source added, “He had put forth a clear condition – ‘I will do the film, only if you don’t pay me’.”
Talking about the sequences featuring Salman Khan in Godfather, it is said to include a solo action block for his introduction, a combination action scene with Chiranjeevi and a dance number featuring the duo. Talking about it and some of the interactive sequences with Chiranjeevi, a source said, “Salman’s bond with Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan goes beyond films. It was always expected that he would do it for free.”
Though an extended cameo, Salman’s role in the film is said to be one of the most important characters of Godfather. The source added that Chiranjeevi and Salman have been bonding well on as well as off the set beautifully. As per the site, the actor will be shooting at ND Studios in Karjat for a week.
