'Dabangg 3' hit the theatres amid the anti-CAA protests in the country which seems to have affected the film’s total collection. To this end, Salman Khan said the security of people was more important than the film.
"In such troubled times (for the film) to do well is remarkable. All the credit goes to the fans. And fans have been very loyal to me and they have gone (to see the film). In North India section 144 was imposed so those collections have not come. But they will go and see the film. I mean first it is their security and then comes 'Dabangg 3'. In other states we have done pretty well," he said.
Sonakshi Sinha had earlier said, "I think people know what is more important and I am honestly happy about that. The entire country has come together and protested against it (CAA). It is definitely more important than a film. I am very proud about the people who have come out and voiced their opinion. I am with people."
Directed by Prabhudeva, 'Dabangg 3' marked the debut of Saiee Manjrekar.
