"Salman is a seasoned actor... When he gives a shot, you would feel that he is not interested but he is the most interested actor on sets. He did a good job.
"He works from heart, there is 'thehrav' in his performance. We got that from him. It was my first film with Salman and it was superb working with him. He was 'natkat' and he still is," the director said at the trailer launch of "Judwaa 2" here.
"It is great that I am making this film after a gap of 20 years with my son. I was not writing a new script (with 'Judwaa 2'). People loved some eight to ten scenes in the original film and we have got some of it in this film as well.
"It is a today's film, the look and all is different. We have got two popular songs back - 'Chalti Hai Kya Nau Se Bara' and 'Ounchi Hai Building'."
