Salman Khan’s father, Salim, was the first choice for ‘Bajirao’

We know that before Sanjay Leela Bhansali locked Ranveer Singh as Bajirao in his recently released period drama, Bajirao Mastani, he was considering Salman Khan to play the role. But with the project being on hold for over a decade and things between the two not quite working out, the role landed in Ranveer’s lap. However, we recently learned that Salman’s father, Salim Khan, was the first to have been approached for the role of Bajirao, though not by SLB. Reportedly, Salim was approached for a film on Bajirao which was to be helmed by Vishram Bedekar back in the 50s. Salim confirmed the news to BollywoodLife.com saying that owing the budget constraints the project was eventually shelved.

While that project might not have taken shape, SLB’s film is definitely something to look out for. Read on to find out what Shah Rukh Khan has to say about the film...
