Recently, Salman talked about how stardom depends on theselection of projects, among other things. “We will go, somebody else will come up. I don’t think that era of stars will go. It will never go. It will always be there. It now depends on a lot of things, selection of movies, what you are in real life, and more. It’s a whole package of things. This younger generation will have their superstardom,” he was quoted as saying at a press conference by Pinkvilla.

We will not hand it over to them. ‘Mehnat karo bhai, pachas plus me mehnat kar hi rahe hain, toh aap bhi mehnat karo (Work hard, we are working hard at the age of 50, you should also work hard)’.”

Salman’s new film, Antim: The Final Truth, released on Friday. The film is directed by Mahesh Manjrekar and will mark Salman’s first onscreen collaboration with his brother-in-law Aayush Sharma.
