I don’t really understand what the big deal is. Yes, the Salman Khan flick made millions in the box office and spawned a recent Bollywood hit, “Munni Badnaam Hui,” but can Dabangg really become a long-lasting franchise?

How times can Salman Khan shake his tight police officer booty? Apparently, the answer is many. Bollywood execs have been fighting over the the cast and crew for Dabangg 2 (only a few months after the original released!), and recently decided to boot former director Abhinav Kashyap only to replace him with Salman’s kid producer/actor brother, Arbaaz Khan (who just so happened to play Salman’s spoiled little bro in the film).
So what’s the reason behind all the crew reshuffling?
As expected in Bollywood, mum’s the word. But what we do know is that Arbaaz is making quite some awaaz about his new title. He Tweeted last week:
Hey guys it true , I will be directing the sequel of Dabangg. Abhinav for some personal n professional reasons opted out. Inshallah Dabangg 2 will live up to all the expectations and be a huge blockbuster because of you all. God bless .Allah hafiz. Dabangg ho !
Hmm….”personal n professional reasons,” eh? I wonder if that includes nepotism.
