After two big hit Sultan and Tiger Zinda Hai, Salman Khan and Ali Abbas Zafar are collaborating yet again in Bharat which is being produced by Atul Agnihotri. For the uninitiated, Bharat chronicles the life of a man between the ages of 18 to 70. According to a leading daily, Ali is trying to recreate Salman's Maine Pyar Kiya look for the movie. Ali revealed to the daily, "We have just locked the script. The idea is to make Salman look the way he appeared in ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’ from the time he began his career to now. But we will know how much we can achieve only after our complete research is done." For the same, Ali and the makers will be taking help from the VFX team of the Brad Pitt movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which saw the actor as an old man and even as a baby. Interestingly, the same VFX team was behind Shah Rukh Khan's look for Fan.
Salman is not the biggest fan of prosthetics as it aggravates his nerve disorder and Ali is trying his best to design something that does not bother the actor too much given he is the titular character of the movie. Getting candid about Salman's commitment to his craft, Ali stated with a smile, "He’s such a good-looking man. He will work a little harder, as I keep pushing him to lose more weight and look younger. He can reduce weight and look 10 years younger within four weeks" Meanwhile, Salman will start shooting for Bharat from April 2018. Bharat is slated for an Eid 2019 release.
