When Farah quizzed Salman about which Salim-Javed movie he would like to remake, the actor replied, “I’d make Sholay and Deewar.” When the filmmaker-choreographer asked if he would like to portray Jai or Veeru, Zoya Akhtar, Namrata Rao and Javed Akhtar unanimously stated, “He is Veeru.” Salman further said, “Also Jai, I can play both.
