"It's not the same. We are not copying and giving you the same picture. It's a different film," the 47-year-old said here Friday.
"'Dabangg' was of a particular genre and now a similar genre film is coming out 'Dabangg 2'," he said on the sets of "Bigg Boss 6" where he launched the item song "Fevicol se" from his new film "Dabangg 2". The song features Kareena Kapoor.
"Consider part one ('Dabangg') as the one before interval and this ('Dabangg 2') as after the interval," he added.
Earlier, the actor launched the promo of the new film.
Asked why he chose to promote "Dabangg 2" on "Bigg Boss", he said: "I am the host of 'Bigg Boss'. Wherever I get time and wherever the channel feels that 'Dabangg 2' promotions can be done, they do it."
Directed by Arbaaz Khan, "Dabangg 2" also features Sonakshi Sinha and is slated for a Dec 21 release.
