Salman Khan's Sikandar had high expectations, but Bhai didn't deliver what fans had hoped for, especially considering it was one of the most expensive Indian films ever made.
Salman's last few projects have been disappointing. Fans expect much more from their superstar, but the actor doesn't seem to connect with audiences like he used to.
Why Akshay Kumar is Superior to Salman Khan?
After a series of underwhelming films, we can only hope that Bhai will make a grand comeback. Here are five directors he could team up with for a stellar return.
Salman Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali were supposed to collaborate on Inshallah, but the project was later shelved. However, after Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, fans would undoubtedly be excited to see the duo work together again.
Akshay Says NO to KJO: Haunted by Past Disaster?
Among Salman Khan's top five highest-grossing movies, two, Tiger Zinda Hai (his highest-grossing film) and Sultan (his third highest-grosser), were directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. The filmmaker knows how to present Salman in the best light on the big screen, and fans hope this actor-director duo reunites soon.
With Kabir Khan, Salman delivered two blockbusters: Ek Tha Tiger and Bajrangi Bhaijaan. Even though Tubelight didn't perform well at the box office, Salman's performance in it was well-received. This pairing could once again create magic.
Akshay Announces Kesari 3 Already: Publicity Stunt?
This list would be incomplete without Sooraj Barjatya. Fans want to see Salman as Prem again on the big screen, making a family drama the perfect way for him to stage a comeback.
Salman Khan has worked in films produced by Aditya Chopra, but the filmmaker has never directed him. A romantic film helmed by Chopra with Salman in the lead would be something audiences would love to see.
All these directors have the potential to bring out the best in Salman and help him deliver something spectacular once again.
