The Kabir Khan film is about a little girl from Pakistan named Shahida, who loses her way on the Indo-Pak border and finds herself in India. The girl finds solace in Salman Khan aka Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi, alias “Bajrangi,” who she finds trustworthy and thus, goes behind him.

The film star also took to Twitter and urged Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Pakistan’s Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and every other leader to watch the film for a social and positive cause.
He tweeted:
