Salman Khan To Play Indian Spy Ravindra Kaushik

In what is  clearly  a first for Salman Khan, the  busy actor will now play his first-ever real-life  character.

Hard to believe, but Salman Khan has  never played a real  character in the entire length of his 23-year career. There were shades  of  a real character in the Haryanvi wrestler that he played in Sultan, though the makers denied it.

But now  in director Rajkumar Gupta’s proposed bio-pic Salman Khan will star as Indian spy Ravindra Kaushik who  infiltrated  the Pakistani army and  gathered  vital  military intelligence for  the Indian army at a huge risk  to  his life.

A  source in the  know tells me, “There will be no concealing of the real identity. Salman Khan will play Ravindra Kaushik and he will be named the same.”

From Who Killed Jessica to  Raid to India’s Most Wanted,  Gupta’s films are all based on real characters and  incidents. Black Tiger—the title  is likely to be  changed, as  it sounds  like Salman’s Tiger series where too he   plays an Indian spy—is being produced by Salman’s  sister Alvira and  brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri.
