Salman wants Sonu Sood

The result is that the beefy actor is back in ‘Dabangg 2’!

If the rumour mills are to be believed then Sonu Sood may have to get his abs ripped once again for the ‘Dabangg’ sequel. Last year fans of the 38-year-old actor were upset when Arbaaz Khan announced that he couldn’t accommodate Sonu or his character Chhedi Singh in the script for ‘Dabangg 2’ because he had to introduce a new villain.

The news came as a bit of a shock for Sonu’s fans as Salman Khan had apparently suggested that the former would play Chhedi Singh’s identical twin brother in the sequel. But then came rumours that veteran south Indian actor Prakash Raj had been penciled in to play the villain.
There were also stories floating around that Sonu himself wasn’t comfortable playing second fiddle to another actor.

But now Sallu wants Sonu back. An industry insider revealed that Salman was very upset when Arbaaz decided to scrap Sonu’s role from the script as he felt the ‘Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap’ actor was perfect for the role. Apparently at his recent birthday party, Salman asked his pal to do a role in ‘Dabangg 2’ in front of Arbaaz. Sonu was in a fix and he felt very embarrassed since this wasn’t the first time he had been asked by Salman to be a part of the sequel.

Knowing the way Salman has the final say in any and everything, we wouldn’t be surprised if he enters a war of words with Arbaaz to ensure that his favourite is cast in the movie.

‘Dabangg 2’ is likely to hit the screens in December this year.
