"I feel 100 percent - a remake of Zanjeer should be made. It was a super hit film," said Salman, while speaking to the mediapersons. Salman's father was the scriptwriter of Amitabh starrer Zanjeer. Salim Khan strongly feels that the cult status and the storyline of the original should be retained.
When asked about the reservations his father has got over the proposed remake Zanjeer, Salman replied,"Even 'Don' (Salim Khan was also the scriptwriter of Amitabh starrer Don) was remade (Shahrukh's Don) and a sequel (Shahrukh's Don 2) had also come out. My father has never objected. Don has been made twice."
Till date, the makers of Zanjeer feared that Salman's father may approach the court to stall the shooting of Zanjeer remake. But now with Salman's clarification, they breathed a sigh of relief and a major hurdle for the Ram Charan's Bollywood debut has been sorted out.
