Mumbai, July 12

irked by anti-religious messages being spread in his name regarding his
forthcoming release "Bajrangi Bhaijaan", says police are taking required
action against miscreants.
He has also reached out to his fans
via social media, asking them not to believe the purported social media
messages which claim "Bajrangi Bhaijan" will prove to be a hit even
without viewership from his Muslim fans.
“Änti religious msg's
doing the rounds using my name don't believe these rumors, not true at

Sunday.
The actor went on to add that he is a firm believer of 'unity in diversity'.
“Always hv n vil respect all faiths arre have them all in my own house under 1 roof (sic),†he added.
"Bajrangi
Bhaijaan", which also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and Nawazuddin
Siddiqui, is an emotional story of a journey of man from India to
Pakistan with a dumb and mute girl.
The much-anticipated film is slated to hit the screens on July 17.
Why Marathi film 'Janiva' left Salman Khan worried?
Superstar Salman Khan, who is
usually unfazed by anything that comes against him, revealed that when
he got to know Marathi film "Janiva" was slated to release on the same
date as his "Bajrangi Bhaijaan", he became worried."Janiva" stars Satya Manjrekar, son of Mahesh Manjrekar, in the lead role.
At
the trailer launch of "Janiva", Salman said: “One day Satya came and
told me ‘Sir I’ve done a film and my film is releasing with your film
‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’'. I asked him, ’17 July?' He said yes. So, I told
him, ‘Satya, please shift the date as we are really worried for
‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’."
"So he went and told the producers and now their film is coming on July 31. Thank you Satya. I really appreciate it.â€
Salman came at the trailer launch to lend support for Satya.
Highly
impressed by the look of the movie, the "Dabangg" superstar said: “It
looks like a film from the heart. It looks like a film where everyone
has given their best. They have made a brilliant film with a great
concept."
"Even though the plot appears intense, there is a lot
of youth in the film. I think the film is going to do very well because
it rarely happens that while watching a promo, I get highly impressed.â€
Salman also joked about how Satya and he work out together and how laid back Satya is at the gym.
The film, directed by Rajesh Ranshinge, also stars Mahesh, Renuka Shahane, Salil Ankola and Kiran Karmarkar.
