As the 90s band prepares to mark it's 25th anniversary this year, Salman Ahmad thinks a film on Junoon might be next on the cards for him.
In a recent interview with the Times of India, the Sayonee hitmaker, who will be seen in the Bollywood film Rhythm directed by Vivek Kumar, said, "I really enjoyed working with Vivek. So, I think a film on Junoon might just be the next step for me."

Speaking about his foray into acting, Salman said, "Everything in my life happened because there was a whisper in my heart. I trained to be a doctor, but I followed my heart in wanting to be an artiste."
Talking about the film, he said, "Vivek read the film's synopsis to me. What I loved about the story were two things: the story follows a group of friends, pursuing their careers, but are equally passionate about performing. The film's message of following one's heart won me over."

He also shared the experience of his cameo appearance. "Shooting for the two songs was similar to how we shoot for our music. But the part where I play a mentor was challenging, as I had to get into character. However, it all fell in place after a few takes," he added.
Salman has sung two songs for the film, Yaaron "a powerful song" with Sunidhi Chauhan and Kaise Bolu has a "modern" yet "Sufi touch."
