Bollywood actor Salman Khan's 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' will release on Diwali (festival of light) this year.

The makers of the Salman-Sonam starrer have blocked November 11 as Diwali gift for Salman fans.

The movie is a mid-week release but since it will be a public holiday in India the makers are not worried about movie goers.

Salman and Sonam starrer is a complete family entertainer that hopes to tug at the heartstrings of audiences with the 'Indianness' of love, and values it has in its core.

Directed by Sooraj Barjatya, the film also stars Neil Nitin Mukesh, Swara Bhaskar, Deepak Dobriyal, Armaan Kohli and Anupam Kher in key roles.

In the movie, Salman is said to be playing a character that he hasn't in a long time.

Deviating from his recent macho-man portrayal Salman will be seen in the quintessential love-boy image that made him a household name in the first place.

Audiences have loved and treasured his character 'Prem' in 'Hum Aapke Hain Kaun'; the actor will reprise the role in 'Prem Ratan...

Produced by Rajshri Productions and distributed by Fox Star Studios, the family drama marks the Dabangg Khan's return to a Barjatya film almost after over 15 years.

The duo last worked together in 1999's blockbuster 'Hum Saath-Saath Hain'.
