Salman Khan to make low-budget films

Salman Khan

MUMBAI: Ever since he co-produced the edutainer Chillar Party under his banner Salman Khan Being Human Productions (SKBHP) with UTV Motion Pictures in 2011, the actor has been lying low on the production front since he was shooting for two of 2012‘s biggest entertainers Ek Tha Tiger and Dabangg.

Meanwhile, last year there were talks that Salman was keen to produce Hindi remakes of two of Mahesh Manjrekar‘s Marathi films: Shikshanachya Aaicha Gho (2010) and Mi Shivajiraje Bhosale Boltoy (2009). But nothing transpired.

But now, Salman has indicated that he would remake the two films. "I loved both his (Manjrekar‘s) films. We are working on them (script for the Hindi versions) right now," he revealed.

But, the important aspect worth noticing is that the actor, who is known to be adept to big budget films, wants to make films on smaller budgets. "Technically, the money that goes into production isn‘t the foundation‘s money, since it goes from our pockets. Still, the idea is to make a good film with little money that brings in big business and helps our foundation grow," he maintained.

Interestingly, the aim of SKBHP is to make films for kids, which are quintessentially feel-good in nature.
