People who will get a 'Kick' if Salman Khan's 'Kick' is a hit!

People who will get a 'Kick' if Salman Khan's 'Kick' is a hit!

Salman Khan- One person who will surely get a 'Kick' if the film 'Kick' becomes a blockbuster is none other than Salman Khan himself. After the debacle called 'Jai Ho', Salman may have understood that people will not flock to the theaters to see his films just because he stars in them. Salman enjoys a huge fan following and most of bhai's movies act as crowd pullers. His fans have made sure in the past that Salman's films enjoy huge box-office success. However, Salman did not get the same response when his last film 'Jai Ho' directed by his brother Sohail Khan released. The film flopped miserably at the box-office that left the film analysts shocked. However, the trailer off 'Kick' and the stills released so far have generated a good overall response. Let's hope that Salman Khan's "Kick' is a huge success!

Jacqueline Fernandez- She is a former beauty queen turned Bollywood actress but Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandez has never managed to strike the right chord with her career in Bollywood films. She isn't a top actress as of today and faces stiff competition from the likes of Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra and even the newcomers like Alia Bhatt and Parineeti Chopra. Even though Jacqueline was a part of 'Race 2' that went ahead and entered the coveted Rs 100 crore club, she wasn't the main lead in the film. But Jacky who shook a leg to 'lat lag gayi' got noticed by none other than Salman Khan who seems to be quite impressed with her. At the trailer launch of their film 'Kick' Salman gushed about his co-star and compared her to veteran actress Zeenat Aman. We have seen the likes of Katrina Kaif and Sonakshi Sinha who got Salman Khan's support and went on to become big stars today. If 'Kick' goes ahead and becomes a hit, Jacqueline's career will definitely be on the upswing!

Randeep Hooda- Randeep Hooda has everything that it takes to be a star. He is good looking, has a body to boast about and above all, acts well too. However, the actor hasn't quite achieved the star status we thought he will. Although Randeep Hooda's last film 'Highway' got both critical appreciation and commercial success but the film's leading lady Alia Bhatt walked away with most of the praise. If the Salman Khan-Jacqueline Fernandez-Randeep Hooda starrer 'Kick' kisses success, Randeep Hooda will definitely benefit from it.

Sajid Nadiadwala- Sajid Nadiadwala is not new to the world of films and freaky Fridays. But it's different this time as he turns director for the first time with the Salman Khan starrer 'Kick'. Although, the producer turned director has worked with Salman on various occasions before, this time Sajid Nadiadwala's 'Kick' has a lot running on its shoulders. Apart from Salman Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez and Randeep Hooda; Sajid has a lot more to worry to see that his extravagant star cast meets up to the expectations of the people. While Sajid confessed that his friend Salman Khan has helped him while directing the film, Sajid's directorial career depends on his debut film. Especially after Salman Khan failed to deliver with 'Jai Ho', the audiences have a lot of expectations from Sajid Nadiadwala's 'Kick'.

Newcomers- Newcomers waiting to get an entry into Bollywood usually side with Salman Khan as he is known for launching new actresses in the industry. While Daisy Shah in 'Jai Ho' wasn't appreciated much and Salman's favourite 'Bigg Boss' contestant Sana Khan too got sidelined after the film flopped, if 'Kick' becomes the blockbuster we are hoping for, then once again wannabe actresses will line up outside Salman Khan's door to be signed or recommended by him in the movie business. In the past, actresses like Katrina Kaif and Sonakshi Sinha's career got the boost after they were promoted by Salman. While Salman went on to date model turned actress Katrina Kaif who is one of Bollywood's numero uno actress today, Sonakshi Sinha's 'Dabangg' entry into films ensured that her kitty was full.

Villains- Salman Khan may have shades of grey in the film 'Kick' after we got to know this as his character is named 'Devil' in the movie. Even though our actors line up to play the male leads in big Bollywood blockbusters, playing a negative role surely has its own charm. And when the trend is revived by none other than Salman Khan, we know it is going to get a huge 'Kick'. Playing the bad guy means you get to do whatever you want on the big screen. From the coolest dialogues to the hottest girls, portraying a bad guy is way cooler, at least on the silver screen. Negative characters will get more profound if 'Kick' becomes a hit.

Sequels galore- It is common knowledge that Salman Khan starrer 'Kick' is a remake of the 2009 Telugu film of the same name. While 'Kick' was a huge success down South, the film has been remade only now in Bollywood. While 'Kick' readies itself for a release in Bollywood, the Telugu audience is gearing up for 'Kick 2'. While the original Telugu film starred Illeana D'Cruz and Ravi Teja, Sajid Nadiadwala's remake stars Jacqueline Fernandez opposite Salman. If 'Kick' gets the anticipated success at the box-office, we can be rest assured that Salman Khan will go on to do the sequel as well. After 'Dhoom', 'Race' and 'Golmaal' series; 'Kick' can also be on its way to become another Bollywood franchise!

Superhero films- Unlike Batman who has a batmobile, Salman Khan is seen just riding a simple bike in the trailer of the film 'Kick'. But with Salman's superhero (or rather super-villain) mask and that all black outfit, we are prepared for an action-packed film ahead of us. Even though Hrithik Roshan in the 'Krrish' franchise and Shah Rukh Khan in 'Ra.One' popularised the superhero concept in India, 'Kick' which isn't a superhero film takes the analogy further because of Salman's look in the film. The Rajinikanth-style stunts like Salman walking slowly in front of a speeding train is getting a lot of traction.
