In the first image, the 51-year-old star can be seen hugging Matin, with the child actor's back towards the camera.
"Backed by Matin Rey Tangu," Salman captioned the image.
In the second photograph, Salman announced that Matin is a part of "Tubelight".
"Introducing Matin Rey Tangu," he tweeted.
"Tubelight", which has been directed by Kabir Khan, also features Chinese actress Zhu Zhu and late actor Om Puri.
