After releasing the first motion poster of the film recently, the actor today introduced the villain of this action drama. South star Kiccha Sudeep is playing the role of Balli, the lead antagonist in Dabangg 3.

Introducing Sudeep Kiccha as Balli in Dabangg 3. #KicchaSudeepInDabangg3 (sic)."

Sonakshi Snha also took to social media to introduce the Kannada star. She wrote, "Meet Sudeep Kiccha aka Balli as Chulbul Pandey's nemesis in #Dabangg3! #KicchaSudeepInDabangg3 (sic)."

It was on Monday that Salman Khan announced the wrap of Dabangg 3 on the birth anniversary of veteran actor Vinod Khanna.

In Dabangg 3, Vinod Khanna's brother Pramod Khanna will be seen reprising the role of Prajapati Pandey.

The promotions of Dabangg 3 have kick-started with a bang. Recently, Salman Khan took to social media to announce that he will be promoting the film in his Chulbul Pandey avatar. In a quirky video, in which Salman Khan is seen in his Chulbul Pandey avatar, the actor reveals that the handsome police inspector will promote the film till its release.

He said, "Baat karte ho Pandeyji, Jab Chulbul Pandey se judey hai poore India ke emotions, toh Salman Khan kyun karenge Dabangg ke promotions? Picture humari, poster humara, toh promote bhi toh hum hi karenge na. Aaj se lekar 20 December tak aur uske baad bhi swaagat toh karo humara."

The third film of the Dabangg franchise is directed by Prabhu Deva. The first film was directed by Anurag Kashyap's brother Abhinav Kashyap, while Dabangg 2 was directed by Salman's brother Arbaaz Khan.

Dabangg 3 will also see Sonakshi Sinha reprise her role of Rajjo. Mahesh Manjrekar's daughter Saiee Manjrekar is making her big Bollywood debut with the cop drama. Salman Khan was seen with the debutante at the recently held IIFA awards. Dabangg 3 has two parallel tracks - one set in the present and the other tracing Chulbul Pandey's past, and fans are excited to see Salman Khan back on the 70 mm as Chulbul Pandey.

Dabangg 3 will be released in four Indian languages - Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam on December 20, 2020.

Los Angeles, May 24: Hollywood star Salma Hayek says her daughter Valentina Pinault is a talented 12 year old who wants to be a director and star as a lead in a film one day.

The Oscar-nominated actor shares Valentina with husband, French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault.

Hayek said she has confidence in her daughter's abilities and believes she has a long way to go.

"She has so many talents. She draws, she wants to shoot movies - both as a director and as the lead - and she writes great pieces. Sometimes when I read her work, I have an urge to produce these stories.

"But she tells me that she will do it by herself when she's older. I don't know what's coming next for her but it seems that she has a lot of ways to go," the actor told HELLO! magazine.

Hayek, 53, added she is concerned about Valentina who has always lived a sheltered life.

"Valentina has always done what she wanted, I've never made her do anything and this means she hasn't yet learned how to oppose pressure, how to overcome obstacles.

"I know by experience that only the overcoming of some difficulties can lead you in the right direction," she said.

Mumbai, Jun 9: Actor Sonu Sood, who has been arranging transport for migrant workers stranded in Mumbai and has faced criticism from the Shiv Sena for "enacting a political script written by BJP", was stopped outside the Bandra Terminus in Mumbai by police from meeting labourers.

A Mumbai Police official said the actor was stopped by the Railway Protection Force (RPF) when he reached the station on Monday night to meet some labourers, and added that they have not received any complaint so far in this connection.

The migrant labourers were supposed to take the Shramik Special train from Bandra Terminus to Uttar Pradesh.

Mumbai's Nirmal Nagar police station's senior inspector Shashikant Bhandare told news agency PTI that "The actor was stopped by the RPF, not by us. He wanted to meet labourers who were going to their native place. We have not received any complaint regarding this till now."

Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Sunday wondered whether the BJP propped up Sonu Sood to "offer help" to migrant workers from north India stranded in Maharashtra amidst the lockdown, with the political motive to show the Uddhav Thackeray government in poor light.

In his weekly column 'Rokhthok' in Shiv Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana', Sanjay Raut questioned the sudden rise of "Mahatma" Sood on the social scene of Maharashtra during the lockdown.

Mr Raut also referred to an alleged "sting operation" against Sonu Sood ahead of the 2019 general elections, saying he had agreed to promote the BJP-led government at various platforms through his official social media accounts.

However, later that day Chief Minister and Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray lauded Sonu Sood's initiative to arrange buses for stranded migrant workers.

The actor met Uddhav Thackeray at the latter's residence 'Matoshree' in suburban Bandra on Sunday night.

On Monday, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh backed Sonu Sood for his work for stranded migrant workers, and questioned the Maharashtra government's criticism of the actor.
