'Dabangg 3' has more to it than just masala Salman Khan

Salman Khan said that a film's sequels are often not able to replicate the success of the original and that is why he has worked extra hard on "Dabangg 3". The film, directed by Prabhu Deva, brings the 53-year-old superstar back in the avatar of Chulbul Pandey, the Robin Hood-like cop which he first played in the 2010 original. "The third one should be the biggest of the lot. Usually sequels don't do as well as the first one so we have really worked hard on this one, not just on action but it also has a story. When you see the film, you will get to know that there is a lot more than just masala to this film," Salman told reporters at the film's trailer launch.
