Salman Khan has convinced brother Arbaaz Khan to have the second schedule of Dabangg 2 in the scenic locales of Kashmir.

A unit source said, "After having completed a major portion of shooting of the sequel in Mumbai, the second schedule was to be at a location somewhere abroad. Arbaaz was keen to shoot at a place in the Middle East. But Salman insisted otherwise. He felt that it made more sense to shoot the film in Kashmir as it would also give the place a boost in tourism. Also, he realised it was economically a better option." 

In the recent past Imitiaz Ali shot major portions of Rockstar in the state and adjoining areas and the footage looked incredible on screen as per a TOI report.

Buzz is that Arbaaz has agreed and the unit will soon plan a rece to the state and finalise locations.
