Salman Khan goes gaga over 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' team

Salman Khan will be seen embarking on an action-filled journey from India to Pakistan in forthcoming film "Bajrangi Bhaijaan". The superstar lauded the film's script and praised film's director Kabir Khan and his female lead Kareena Kapoor Khan.

The 49-year-old actor shared his views about the film's cast at the trailer launch here on Thursday.

"I really loved the script. The director is superb and heroine is superb. But Nawazuddin (Siddiqui) is theek-thaak (average). The casting was pretty simple as all of them are quite professional. There was only one person who was a bit unprofessional, who would come late on the sets -- the producer Salman Khan," he said.

The "Dabangg" star is also producing the film under his banner Salman Khan Films. And Salman says he didn't get between the creative process of the film.

"I didn't have much of an involvement in the production matters of the film," he said.

The film narrates a tale of a man's journey out on a mission to take young Pakistani girl, who is mute and is lost in India, back to her country. The film spins a story around his experiences and the people he will stumble upon during his travel. Nawazuddin plays role of a Pakistani journalist in the film.

"Bajrangi Bhaijaan" is slated to hit the screens on Eid this year, which is likely to be on July 18.
