"Dabangg" (2010), in which Salman had played the lead, marked the Bollywood debut of Sonakshi Sinha. The film produced by Arbaaz Khan and directed by Abhinay Kashyap was a blockbuster.
Its sequel saw the "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" actor and "Rowdy Rathore" actress reprising their roles. It was directed and produced by Arbaaz. Now the third part of "Dabangg" is being planned.
"This is the man (Salman) who will give me the window (dates) otherwise he will show me the door," Arbaaz said.
The film stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Amy Jackson, Arbaaz and others.
On the occasion, Salman said in a lighter vein, "Why did you (media) remind him (Arbaaz) about the film. Had forgotten about 'Dabangg 3'. But yes, we are working on the script."
About his character in "Freaky Ali", Arbaaz said, "I play Maqsood in the film who is a side kick. He is a gangster, a petty thief, extortionist and when Ali (Nawazuddin's character) is in trouble, he helps him. Ali and I share up and down equation."
