First it was the news that the script of the film had been written by Salman himself which created quite a buzz, then it was Salman's beefed up, bronzed warrior look in the film which was talked about and then it was Mithun Chakraborty playing Sallu's father in the film which hit the headlines.
Now Veer has yet another veteran actor added to its already impressive starcast and the actor we are talking about is none other than Jackie Shroff.
The buzz is that Jaggu Dada would be seen playing a negative character in the film. We spoke to Jackie who confirmed the news but didn't reveal much about his character. "Yes, I have signed Veer. It's a very interesting and different role. I start shooting for the film in December."
Jackie has played the villain with aplomb in films like Mission Kashmir and Naksha. One will have to wait and watch if Jackie is a strong enough villain for Salman Khan's Veer.
