Zaheer Iqbal hailing from a non-filmy background happens to be the first member from his family to set his foot in Bollywood.
The whole movie begins and ends in Kashmir and the makers shot for 43 days in the valley. Notebook is produced by Salma Khan, Murad Khetani and Ashwin Varde. It is slated to release on March 29.
Reportedly, Pakistani singer Atif Aslam has been removed from Notebook, following the blanket ban on Pakistani artistes imposed by All India Cine Workers’ Association.
The producers associated with the film have reportedly decided to contribute Rs 22 lakh for the families of martyrs of the terror attack. According to a Pinkvilla report, Salman Khan Films and Cine 1 Films made a joint statement that the entire crew could shoot safely in the Valley primarily due to the efforts of the CRPF, the Indian Army, and also the people of Kashmir, who have constantly ensured that law and order prevail in the region even under the most extreme circumstances. Condolences to their families.
Salman Khan’s Tweet:
