Salman Khan concerned about ‘Bharat’ length?

Salman Khan is reportedly concerned with the length of his next film ‘Bharat’.

Deccan Chronicle reports that the superstar wants the film edited, without the narrative being messed up.

A source told the publication, “While a film’s length in the earlier days used to be close to three hours and a shorter film was always not considered ‘paisa vasool’ for the audiences. With the advent of the multiplexes and new generations, films now need to be compact. Salman is said to be playing multiple characters in the film. Unlike other films being made today, Bharat is a story told over many years. There will be flashbacks and references to the pre-Independence era in the film, which cannot be told in a jiffy because it will take away from the storytelling. And then you need the songs and dances for the typical Salman audiences, who want their star not just to fight, but also show his swag. Hence the length will be longer.”

Reports say that the film’s duration is said to be over three hours and could be chopped down to two hours and 45 minutes, on Khan’s request.
