Salman Khan's Tubelight is all set to rule the theatres from 23 June. So the days are very busy for Salman as he wants no stone unturned for the betterment of film.

Recently when he was asked if he remembers dialogues, Salman said, "Yes, I do remember, but if there are some heavy-duty dialogues that I have to think about and say, then it doesn’t easily come to me. The dialogues that I have to feel and say come easily. So, I don’t say the dialogues the way they are written. If there is something flowery, I change thoda idhar-udhar. If there are some long lines, then there are always two cameras set up and there is one close and some long shot. I have someone say the lines aloud and I say it with full belief."

On remembering things from 20 years ago, he said, "Yes. Things have happened, that I remember. My school education, I don’t remember at all, because I rated it. (Smiles)" When asked whether he was a good student, he said, "I was okay. I mean, at sports and all, I was fine, studies I used to pass. So, I used to ratto it and as soon as I would come out of my examination and mum would ask, ‘Kya likha hai iske upar? ’ I would never remember. Even my dialogues I do not remember."

Talking abour Sanjay Dutt, Govinda and Shatrughan Sinha, he said, "Someone like Sanju, you give him a three-page dialogue, the guy reads it once or twice and he remembers it. He is phenomenal. I have done three films with him and I know. There was one film, Saajan, where he had all the dialogues and I had one last line... he used to look at me. So, I used to say my line, then cut, and then go for one more. He used to say, ‘Bhaijaan kya kar rahe ho?’ Govinda also has a phenomenal memory. He remembers each and every dialogue of his and he has done so many films and intricate dialogues, comedy punches, this, that, informatory lines, everything he remembers. If you are like, ‘Woh yaar woh dialogue kaunsa tha Aunty No.1 ka’, and he is like ‘Yeh wala, yeh wala, yeh wala’, outstanding. Shatru saab too. He had come on to the sets of Dus Ka Dum and he said, ‘Yaar ek woh dialogue tha mera and I used to reach late and woh din ka scene tha when I went there kuch aanth (eight) page ka dialogue tha, toh main make-up karte karte maine padha. The producer said, light jaa rahi hai. I said fikar mat karo, camera lagao and main karta hu’. He read it two-three times and he said it. I said, ‘Sir, woh kya dialogue tha’. He replied, ‘Yaar yeh kuch 30-40 saal pehle ki baat hai.’ I said, haan sir. He said, ‘Ruko ek second’. And he recited it. Eight pages from memory, straight out. I was shocked. I thought kiya hoga shows pe. But he said, ‘Pehli baar kar raha hu us din ke baad’. I forget lines, I forget locations, I forget all these unimportant things. I just delete them."
