I know Salman Khan doesn’t care.” In addition, he acknowledged that the legendary role of Circuit from Munnabhai MBBS did not appear to be particularly promising on paper, but he still agreed to act in the movie because he trusted Sanjay Dutt to “let me do my own thing.”

Jokes apart, I am very happy for Akshay. I am sure he and the team have done a great job. He and I keep talking about it. In fact, I am even promoting the film in my own way. I am yet to watch it but I am really excited about its release,” he told PTI.
