The pre-production works on Salman Khan’s movie ‘Radhe’ remake of Telugu movie ‘Stalin’, starring Southern superstar Chiranjeevi, have started and the cast for the movie is currently being finalized.

Salman Khan’s brother, Sohail Khan, who will be directing this eagerly anticipated remake, recently met with actress Tabu and veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah for two crucial roles in the movie upon Salman Khan’s request.

“Before leaving for Dubai on Wednesday, Sohail spoke to Tabu and Naseer for two important roles in the film,” said a source to TOI.

“It was at Salman's insistence that Tabu and Naseer were contacted. Salman felt that the supremely talented duo could give the film a touch of class. Also, the film sees him as a military officer who sets out to reform society and as Sohail, needs cerebral actors,” the source added.

But when contacted Sohail Khan said, “(The actors) have not confirmed yet."

If everything goes according to Salman Khan’s wishes, then this will be the fourth movie in which Salman Khan will be acting alongside Tabu. They previously acted together, if not romantically, in ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’, ‘Biwi No 1’ and ‘Jeet’. Even in this movie Tabu is being considered to play role of Salman Khan’s sister.
