Don’t worry, we’ll reveal the other one too when the time is right. Have some patience, just a little. You’ll have to wait as much as I am. Honestly, whatever you’re feeling right now, I’m feeling the same… haha),” he wrote in the caption.
The announcement continues Salman’s long-standing tradition of Eid releases, a run that has included blockbusters such as “Wanted” (2009), “Dabangg” (2010), “Bodyguard” (2011), “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” (2015), “Sultan” (2016), “Kick” (2014) and “Bharat” (2019).
