Before drugs investigation took over Maharashtra, we already completed shooting 'Radhe': Salman Khan

In his soon-to-be-released film Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, Salman Khan plays the titular role of a cop who is on a mission to wipe out the drug menace in Mumbai. The film has Randeep Hooda playing the main antagonist and the trailer gave a glimpse into the whole drug problems in the youth and how Khan is leaving no stone unturned in cleaning the city from it.

During a virtual press interaction, Salman revealed that the shooting of Radhe was completed before Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) started its probe in Mumbai. The superstar stated, "It has been a problem for a long time. Even before this drugs investigation took over Maharashtra, we had already completed shooting the film. But now it became relevant. I have always been against drugs. Here, people are misusing it. We have nieces and nephews who are very young and might get influenced."

Salman further said, "As soon as you take it (drugs), you are done...your body and mind both will want it so you will have to be ten times stronger. But most of them don't have that in them to do that. Families go through problems, then siblings go through problems. So in Radhe, we have touched upon this subject...a man who goes on to clean up the city."

Talking about the drug probe, it kickstarted after the death of Sushant Singh Rajput. Several Bollywood celebrities namely Deepika Padukone, Shraddha Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, Sara Ali Khan and others were grilled by the NCB.
