Everyone is waiting for Salman Khan ’s Dabangg 3 with bated breath. Previous installments of the film had turned out to be massive blockbusters at the ticket window and fans are sure that the third installment of the movie will also take the box office by storm. But what is worrying the fans most right now is the fact that even after months of speculations, the film has not gone on floors yet.

The project is in news once again. If latest reports are to be believed, filmmaker Sabbir Khan , whose latest directorial Munna Michael hits screens today, might come on board to direct Dabangg 3. Earlier, Prabhu Deva’s name was doing the rounds as the director, but now it seems Sabbir Khan has been entrusted with the responsibility of taking the successful franchise forward.

Sabbir was recently quoted as saying, "Yes, I have started working on a plan for Dabangg 3 but I can't say anything until the paperwork is finalized. I am in talks and am really happy that I was one of the directors selected to work on the final script."

However, producer of the film, Arbaaz Khan , has rubbished rumors of Sabbir Khan directing the third part. He took to his Twitter account to rebut the rumors. He tweeted, “Sabbir Khan was never approached to direct or write Dabangg 3. His statement in Mumbai Mirror is untrue and rubbish. Extremely disappointing.”

Well, if not Sabbir and Prabhu, then who will eventually direct the film? Keep guessing!
