Salman Khan wished himself a very happy birthday as his cop avatar from Dabangg 3, Chulbul Pandey. In a video shared by Salman Khan Films, the superstar’s “lookalike” sends him a special birthday wish in his signature style.

“Janamdin ke shubh avsar par hum humare lookalike, bina Dabangg moochon ke actor ko janamdin mubarakbaad wish karne aaye hai. Toh gaur farmaiye: ‘Tum jiyo hazaaron saal, hai yeh aarzoo, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you.’ (On the auspicious occasion of his birthday, I want to wish my lookalike, the actor without a ‘Dabangg’ moustache, a very happy birthday. Please pay attention: ‘May you live a thousand years, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you,’)” he says in the video.

Dabangg 3, directed by Prabhudeva, crossed the Rs 100-crore mark in just six days of its release. The film also stars Sonakshi Sinha and newcomer Saiee Manjrekar.

Salman rang in his birthday with his close friends and family at a party hosted by his brother Sohail Khan. Among the attendees were Katrina Kaif, Iulia Vantur, Shah Rukh Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, Tabu and Randeep Hooda.
