Tuesday, 28th Oct 2014, 4:17 PM IST Jackie Shroff played the lead role in 1983 release ‘Hero’. Salman Khan is producing the remake of the film which stars Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty in the lead roles, and now the superstar has roped in Jackie to play the villain in the film. The veteran actor will play the role of Pasha, which was played by Amrish Puri in the original. Salman felt that the ‘Hero’ remake will be incomplete without Jackie being a part of it. The superstar’s office contacted Jackie who soon gave his nod. A source close to the project said, "Nikhil loved Salman's idea. Jackie will shoot with Sooraj Pancholi, Athiya Shetty and the rest of the cast for 20 days." "Jackie is close to both Ghai and Salman. It will be nostalgic for him to act in the remake of a film which established him as a star in Bollywood," the source added.
