It seems he's quite right.
Randeep, who was last seen in Main Aur Charles, has bagged a role in Khan's much-talked about film Sultan.
"It’s a strong role of a Haryanvi character, though not of Salman’s coach, as reported," says a source.
"Randeep has been chosen for the part as he is Haryanvi and because Salman thought he is appropriate for the character," the source adds.
Randeep reportedly will not play a wrestler in Sultan.
Interestingly, the actor was supposed play a Haryanvi boxer in Tigmanshu Dhulia's Bhiwani but sadly, the film never took off.
