Dharmendra on Salman Khan’s ‘Mera Naam Joker’ scene

Dharmendra has been looked upon as a role model by many actors and one actor who has been forever in awe of him has been Salman Khan. In Khan’s next release ‘Bharat’, Khan has a circus scene that was inspired by Raj Kapoor and Dharmendra’s ‘Mera Naam Joker’ (1970), and Khan has enacted the scene just like Dharmendra’s from the classic.

When told about the ‘Bharat’ scene, Dharmendra said, “Salman is like my third son (after Sunny and Bobby). He has always shown the greatest love not just for me, but also for my entire family. I am very fond of Salman. I am not surprised if he has modelled his character on me. He always says I’m his role model, so nice of him,” as according to Deccan Chronicle. 

‘Bharat’ also stars Katrina Kaif.
