Sajid Nadiadwala shares a long lasting relationship with Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar



Sajid Nadiadwala, who owns the banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment Pvt Ltd, is one of the top producers in Bollywood. He has worked with many male and female actors from the industry but Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar are two actors who are seen very frequently in his films. Akshay has worked with Sajid in movies like Housefull, Housefull 2, Hey Baby, Kambakkt Ishq and a few more. Sajid’s movies Judwa and Jeet had Salman Khan in the lead. The two have in fact even worked together in Sajid Nadiadwala movies like Mujhse Shaadi Karogi and Jaanemann. Salman will also be seen in Sajid’s next release Kick, which is his first movie as a director.  



When he was asked why he hasn’t worked with other superstars like Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, Sajid Nadiadwala said, "With Aamir it has never happened and there is no reason for it. And as far as Shah Rukh is concerned, it is only for me that he has done cameos in two films (Hey Baby and Har Dil Jo Pyaar Karega). This year when I decided to make five films in a year, there was an opportunity to work with him for 2 States, which is co-produced by Karan Johar and me. Shah Rukh was signed for it but then it fizzled out and did not materialize. And since I make one film in a year, so far I was happy working with Salman and Akshay. It is just that I have not worked with one or two stars, with the rest I have worked." 

Sajid further spoke about his relationship with his two long lasting actors, Akshay and Salman. He says that it has worked well whenever he has made films (individually) with these two stars and together, they have a 95% success rate. In the last 10 years, only once when Sajid worked with them, in Janemann, they could not deliver a hit. Sajid Nadiadwala believes that these figures are a major reason why he prefers working with these two. The other reason for this liaison is that he is absolutely comfortable working with Akshay and Salman and has a lot of faith in both the actors, which he believes is an absolute necessity for making a good film.
