Salman Khan's largesse now comes in even bigger packages, and one of the recent beneficiaries is Prem Soni. Thanks to the actor, he is now is directing Sohail Khan Productions' "Main Aur Mrs. Khanna".

The story doing the rounds about Salman, who helped Govinda in reviving his career, is that when wannabe director Soni hesitatingly approached the actor with the desire to direct a film, he said: "Do you have any scripts ready? Okay, you've 10 minutes. Narrate me an idea. And you are on."

Soni nervously narrated an idea. And that's how he got the chance to direct "Main Aur Mrs. Khanna".
Sohail Khan, who has been shooting with Salman in Pangong and Leh for Samir Karnik's "Mera Bharat Mahaan", confirmed the news and said they are always looking for new talents.

"It is true bhai and I are on the constant lookout for scripts and directors for Sohail Khan Productions. Of course, we have friends like David Dhawan who has just done a great job in 'Partner'. But we need new talent," Sohail told IANS.

"When Prem Soni, who used to work for STAR India, approached Salman bhai he asked him to narrate an idea. He loved what he heard and sent Prem to me. We're now casting for the film," he said.

Govinda has already been given the go-ahead to play the male lead.

"Govinda is a part of our family now. He's free to be in all our films," he added.

As for his stint in "Mera Bharat Mahaan", Sohail said: "I'm shown going on a biking trip with Vatsal Seth. Though basically it is both of us throughout the film, we both have leading ladies."
