Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Salman Khan today
said he wants his recently-released film 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan'
to be made tax-free.
"It has to be tax free. We want government to earn money
from this (film), but the government should put that money for
the betterment of the society, so that there is progress. But
if that doesn't happen, then the film has to be made tax
free," Salman said in an interview here today.
Directed by Kabir Khan, 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' is about a
little Pakistani girl, who loses her way on the Indo-Pak
border and finds herself in India. Salman finds the girl and
takes it upon himself to re-unite her with her family in
Pakistan.
Salman has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his
Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif to watch the film for a
"social cause".
The film star took to twitter saying, "Wld lv n respect if
the leaders of Indo-Pak see Bajrangi Bhaijaan bcoz lv for
children is above all boundaries @narendramodi #nawazsharif."
"I want them to see the film...I want all the other
leaders to watch it. It is a positive film. I want everyone...
the heads of the country to watch this film. As they are
dealing with this problem and may be their hearts will melt.
Till the time I don't get response I will keep tweeting about
it," Salman said.
Praising the social media, Salman added those who use in a
bad way must be taken to task.
"I think social media is lovely. There are a few people,
who take advantage in a very negative way...that is disgusting
and it has to be stopped. They should be taken to task as
later on it creates problem. So there has to be a law passed
for it," he added.
