Salman Khan is bringing new talent - Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty - to the world of showbiz with his forthcoming production venture "Hero". The superstar says he is already on a lookout for scripts to cast the lead pair again.
"I will cast them again 100 percent. In fact we are already looking for script to cast them . And the decision doesn't depend on the fate of 'Hero', " Salman said here.
The actor, who was here on Saturday for the promotion of the Nikhil Advani directorial with the lead pair, expressed his faith in the newcomers by saying" both of them are brilliant in their art".
On Teacher's Day on Saturday, while Sooraj and Athiya said that they consider Advani as their teacher in the industry, Salman played with the question with his wit by naming his teachers from his kindergarten.
On a serious note, the "Kick" star said his parents and his brothers have been his teachers, guiding him at each step of his life.
"Hero", a remake of the 1983 film of the same name, is being produced by Salman under his banner Salman Khan Films and Subhash Ghai.
It will hit the screens on September 11.
