After ‘Wanted’, actor Prakash Raj will be seen with Salman Khan once again. He will play the main villain in ‘Dabangg 2’, says actor-producer Arbaaz Khan.

"The extremely talented actor Prakash Raj is the main villain of 'Dabangg 2'," Arbaaz posted on his Twitter page Tuesday.

The southern actor-filmmaker is excited about the new role.

"Just heard the narration of 'Dabangg 2'. Arbaaz has a sureshot winner on hand. Happy and excited to join Salman bhai once again. Cheers!!!" Prakash Raj tweeted.

This has put a question mark on actor Sonu Sood's role in ‘Dabangg 2’, the sequel to the 2010 action blockbuster ‘Dabangg’.

Sonu played Chaddi Singh, the bad man in the original movie. But if Prakash Raj will play the "main villain" in the sequel, one wonders what will happen to Sonu.

But Sonu, who is repeating his villainous act in ‘Osthi’ Tamil remake of the film, tweeted: "@arbaazSkhan is a fab guy, I know he will make a great film. I will always be there with him may be not as an actor this time but as a brother."

However, what will be retained in the sequel is the pairing of Salman and Sonakshi Sinha.

‘Dabangg 2’ will release in December 2012.
