Superstar Salman Khan, who is basking in the success of his latest film "Sultan", will now be seen in a Marathi film "Chhatrapati Shivaji" which is being produced by Riteish Deshmukh.

"I am doing a Marathi film '...Shivaji' with Riteish Deshmukh. It's a good five to six days of shoot and Riteish is producing the film," Salman told reporters in a group interview.

"I forced myself into the movie and to know what I am doing in the film, you will have to watch it," he added.

Riteish along with his actress wife's production banner Mumbai Film Company will be producing the film.

When asked will his mother Salma Khan help him to learn Marathi, Salman said: "No, I think the dialogue writer and Riteish will help me out because my mother's Marathi is a mix of Marathi, Hindi and English."
