Salman Khan plays 'Agent Bhai Jaan' in 'Baby John'
The much-awaited Christmas release, Baby John, was released in theaters on Wednesday. The film has been making waves not just for its mass appeal and Varun Dhawan and Atlee's involvement but also for a special appearance by superstar Salman Khan. The cameo role was teased briefly in the trailer, adding to the audience's excitement. Now, it's revealed that Khan's character is named "Agent Bhai Jaan," a tribute to his real-life nickname among fans.
Khan's cameo in 'Baby John' promises action and comedy
In Baby John, Khan's character is not just a part of action sequences but also serves as a source of comedy. This is his second cameo in two months after a brief appearance in the Diwali release Singham Again. However, unlike his fleeting role in Singham Again which left fans disappointed, Khan has been given enough screen space in Baby John to flaunt his acting chops and entertain his audience.
This is how Khan said yes to the role
In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Baby John producer Murad Khetani revealed how Khan came on board. "Atlee informed me about the requirement for a star for a cameo. He asked if Salman sir could come on board." "I met Salman bhai; we sat and started chatting. It took me an hour to gather the courage to ask him. Finally, I told him 'Apni picture mein Varun ke saath ek din ka cameo shoot karna hai.' He replied, 'Yes, done.'"
Khan's birthday week brings more excitement for fans
Adding to the excitement, Khan will also be celebrating his birthday on Friday, December 27. On this special day, the teaser of his much-awaited film Sikandar will be digitally unveiled. Meanwhile, Baby John continues its cinematic run featuring Khan in a massy avatar through his cameo role. This last week of 2024 is going to be a treat for all Salman Khan fans with these back-to-back releases and announcements.
