With Himmatwala scheduled for a March 2013 release, director Sajid Khan is confident that audiences across India will love his film as it is a  family entertainer. Sajid has ensured  his film has a lot of action sequences considering it has Ajay Devgn in the lead but the  film is far from violent. “There is a lot of action in  Himmatwala but you’ll never see violence in my films. I don’t  like blood nor do I believe in putting anything  that you cannot  watch with women and children,” says Sajid.  “What you will see is hand  to hand fights which have not been seen on the silver  screen in the last 30-35 years. It’s not about a superstar fighting a  hero. In my film, the tiger’s character plays a very important  role and it also plays a positive sign in my life.”  Adding, “Animals are always a part of my films and  kids will love the tiger in Himmatwala. I’ve given a massive  role to the tiger as I’m a fan and I spent a lot of time with them in Mauritius where I visited  a tiger farm. I was amazed to see little kids play with them as  if they were their pet dogs.” “The action in my film is not what exists today. It’s proper Hindi cinema that has emotionally  driven heroic action.” With Himmatwala scheduledfor a March 2013 release,director Sajid Khan is confidentthat audiences across India willlove his film as it is a familyentertainer.
