Overview
- Trade reports say Ghai and his writers are shaping a police-officer character that was sketched with Salman Khan in mind for Khalnayak Returns.
- The role is described by unnamed insiders as a helpful cop who would support Sanjay Dutt’s character and affect the film’s narrative.
- Subhash Ghai has told reporters it is too early to confirm any casting because the screenplay is still being written.
- Salman Khan’s potential involvement remains unconfirmed and would mark a second collaboration with Ghai after their 2008 film Yuvvraaj if it proceeds.
- Khalnayak Returns is in early development and the makers plan to finalise casting only after a complete script is ready, with the project drawing on the 1993 film’s legacy.
