Salman asks team to construct walls around 'Dabangg-3' sets. Why?
What's the story
Currently filming Dabangg 3, actor Salman Khan is having a tough time keeping the shooting a secret. Ever since it began rolling, pictures from the sets have been going viral on the Internet on-and-off. To prevent any further leaks, Salman has apparently asked his team to construct huge walls around the sets in Pune. But, will it work?
Leak
Pictures from the film's Jaipur schedule were leaked online
According to a Mid-Day report, the superstar took the decision after videos from his dance sequences with co-actor Sonakshi Sinha from their Jaipur schedule were leaked on social media last week. This isn't the first time that pictures from Dabangg 3 found its way to social media. Earlier, Salman's new look as the younger Chulbul Pandey also went viral on the Internet.

Information
Salman asks his team to increase security on sets
Expressing his disappointment over repeated leaks, Salman called a meeting with his team to increase security on the sets. "He also advised the production team to increase height of the walls around so that ardent fans cannot scale them during Pune schedule," a source said.
Precautions
'Dabangg 3' sets also has a strict no-phone policy
Salman has also, reportedly, enforced a no-phone policy on Dabangg 3 sets, and has asked the cast and crew to refrain from carrying mobile phones to the filming area. This move has been taken to keep Mahesh Manjrekar's daughter Saiee's look under wraps, who's making her debut with this film. "Salman wants to personally reveal her first look from the film," the source asserted.
Story
The film will show how Chulbul became present-day Robin Hood
On a related note, Dabangg 3 will have two parallel tracks focusing on the past and present lives of Chulbul Pandey. "For the prequel portions, Salman will have to look younger as the scenes will be about the time when he hadn't become a police officer," the source revealed. For the younger and leaner look, the Bharat star also, reportedly, lost 7 kgs.
