"Salman Khan has admitted that many of his films have failed in the past.  In an interview with Mid Day, the actor said that a film could not ride on his name alone.  &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a whole package,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;Salman Khan ne bahut badi badi bhi di hai [flops]. Now if I do a pakao film, which has lot of bhashanbaazi [sermonising], no one will come to watch. Dabangg is a film which people can watch with their friends, family and girlfriend and have fun.&amp;quot; The 46-year-old actor, who celebrates his birthday on December 27, said that while initial reactions to the trailer of Dabangg 2 have been good, there would only be cause for celebration if the film does well.  &amp;quot;If people enjoy the film then it is a Christmas and birthday treat. Agar picture nahi chali to kaunsa treat? [If the film doesn&amp;#039;t run then what treat will that be?] Jis hisaab se humko reactions mille hai [According to the reactions we have received so far], they are similar to what the first Dabangg was, so I think we are in the safe zone,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;I think emotionally, ethically and principally this film is correct. It is larger than the earlier one but neither very similar to the first one, nor very different.&amp;quot;      Khan reprises his role as Inspector Chulbul Pandey in the forthcoming sequel to the original hit film.  The character is said to be even more violent than he was in Dabangg.  The actor, who has scored several blockbuster movies including Dabangg, Bodyguard and Ek Tha Tiger, has said he is confident that Dabangg 2 could reach the 200 crore mark, and he believes it won&amp;#039;t be long before  a film crosses the 300 crore barrier. Also starring Sonakshi Sinha, Prakash Raj, Vinod Khanna and Arbaaz Khan, Dabangg 2 releases on December 21.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
