>Playing Fool: Why Salman is desperate to act in Joker?

>

Fascinated by the 3D technology that Shirish Kunder will use for his next superhero flick, Joker, the actor wants a role in the film too

First it was a cameo in a song in Om Shanti Om, then another in a song in Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif starrer Tees Maar Khan. For husband wife duo Shirish Kunder and Farah Khan, Salman Khan’s face seems to be a lucky mascot.

While we know that Khan will play the lead in Kunder’s film Kick, the beefy actor is also keen to show his face in Kunder’s 3D project that’s in the pipeline. Titled Joker, the superhero action flick will star Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha, and although the first schedule began on February 14 in Chandigarh, Khan wants Kunder to scribble a quick role for him too.

Why? Because the actor is fascinated by the technology.

“Shirish has already locked in on Akshay for the lead in Joker with Sonakshi Sinha. But when Salman heard Shirish was making a film in 3D, he got excited. He told Shirish to get him into the picture even if it is for just a cameo, ” reveals a source.

Kunder is busy trying to find a good enough role for Khan to play in Joker. “Salman is fascinated by 3D.

Creatively, this technology allows filmmakers to give viewers a more lifelike experience, as if they were actually in the world of the film and can reach out and touch the characters. Both Salman and I love 3D.

Plus, it discourages piracy, as viewers have to go to theatres to see the film. In Joker, I intend to take the audience to a world they’ve never seen or experienced before, ” says the director.

Kunder admits efforts are on to write Khan into Joker. “I would love to include Salman in Joker. But it has to be a role that would do justice to him.”

Apparently, Khan is not willing to take no for an answer. If it’s a three-dimensional experience, he would like to join the crew as the fourth.

>Get ready for her bold moves in ‘Joker’

We only saw Sonakshi Sinha dance for about 45 seconds in ‘Dabangg’ but it was plain to see even in that little time that the girl sure knows how to move. The actress has been looking for a chance to show off those skills with an amazing number for a long time now, and looks like her moment has finally arrived.

Sonakshi stars in Shirish Kunder’s ‘Joker’ and we hear that Farah Khan will be choreographing one fantastic number for her. And it’s not just Sonakshi who will sizzle in the song, she’ll be joined by Sheila aka Katrina Kaif!

‘Tees Maar Khan’ might have flopped but Kat’s ‘Sheila Ka Jawani’ was a big hit, and Farah is looking to get that vibe on again for her hubby’s next.

So, with Sonakshi and Kat sharing an item song, who do you think will come up on top? Tell us what you think!
