February 22, 2013, (Sawfnews.com) - Sooraj Bharjatiya has completed scripting his film headlining Salman Khan and the actor has confirmed his participation in the project, but Salman's dates calendar is full this year.

An industry insider tells the HT, "Salman and Soorajji have discussed the script, but it's next to impossible that he can take out time for it in 2013. In fact, he is yet to start shooting for Sohail Khan's Mental, which will be his first release this year."

Sohail Khan's Mental will start production in Dubai in March. In July, Salman will start filming for Sajid Khan's Kick. Further ahead, Salman has Anees Bazmee's No Entry Mein Entry and Prabhudheva's next lined up.

Bharjatiya's next, tentatively titled Bade Bhaiyya is the story of two brothers. The younger brother being a rebel and the older brother, played by Salman, mentors him to settle down in life.

Barjatya describes his film as a family drama with lots of characters. Each character has been written carefully.

"It would convey all the joys and sorrows of a joint family. It will have tears and laughter and of course celebration. But at the same time it'd be a little different from the family films I've made in the past. The definition of family values has changed in recent years. My film would have to reflect that change."
