Bollywood filmmaker Sohail Khan is a man of few words.

While the entire media is going ‘mental’ reporting that Sohail and his star brother Salman Khan is not happy with the title of his upcoming movie 'Mental', Sohail has chosen to keep quiet.

When he decided to talk, he spoke exclusively to Emirates24|7 here in Dubai to make it loud and clear that he is not changing the title and that there is no difference of opinion with Salman on the topic.

Sohail, who was in the emirate to shoot a promotional video for Burj Pacific clarified about how the name fits the bill: "It is a satire and we perfectly believe that it is the right title ('Mental') and is complementary to the script".

Both Salman and Sohail have expressed their love for Dubai on several occasions and the emirate is the destination of choice for Bollywood stars; be it for their movies or for investing money in property. The Khan brothers are no different.

Emirates24|7 had earlier reported that Sohail Khan purchased an apartment in Burj Pacific.

Asked why he bought an apartment in Burj Pacific, Sohail says, “I made the investment because Parvez Khan, the developer, offered me what I wanted. The price was reasonable and I got a good payment plan.”

During his promotional shoot for Burj Pacific, Sohail spoke how Dubai real estate meets his criteria. “Business Bay is an upcoming area, which is reasonably priced. Moreover, it is close to Downtown and Dubai Mall where we spend a lot of time whenever we are here.”

There has been occasions when big brother Salman expressed his willingness to invest in Dubai and Sohail asserts, “Yes bhai (brother) believes and supports my real estate investments. I do invest in Mumbai’s real estate and now I have started investing in Dubai."

Sohail doesn’t rule out moving to Dubai, which is just 180 minutes away from Mumbai, the Bollywood hub. “We love the city and this is one place where I would love to settle down in future and so I have made the investment,” he reveals.
