When it comes to script writing, Salman is definitely not his father Salim Khan’s son. After his last failed attempt at script - writing, the actor has decided to sail uncharted waters again.
Salman’s love for historical characters gave rise to the debacle that was Sooryavanshi, the actor who wrote the script of the film had high aspirations of himself as a writer. The film was a pathetic rip off of Conan The Barbarian which tanked at the BO without a whiff in the air. With no original ideas, Salman hadn’t learnt his lesson and went on to make script changes in the film Baaghi (1990). The film did an average job and Salman went around town boasting, even when the scene of him in a woman’s underwear was a direct lift from a Hollywood flick.Surprisingly Nikhil Advani was not the only one to blame for the disaster that was Salaam-e-Ishq. Salman Khan was the actual culprit who went on to make changes to the script of the film by coaxing the director to remake Love Actually; the actual script of the film was nothing close to the hit British film. We should have known!
Salman’s upcoming film Veer is his baby alright; the actor who has written the script of the film had eventually wanted to direct it but roped in Anil Sharma to don the director’s hat. Still the script isn’t as original as one would think; it’s an adaptation of Nikolai Gogol’s, Taras Bulba, a romanticised historical religious novel.
Looking at Salman’s scripting graph, our sympathies with the audience and all those poor old investors.Salman is not sitting glum, when not painting, when not acting, when not dating hot women; he's penning scripts we have to worry about.
