Salman Khan found losing weight after Sultan to be a painful experience

-
Salman Khan says it is not easy to lose and gain weigh for films as he prepares to do it again for Tiger Zinda Hai and Remo D’Souza’s dance film.


Superstar Salman Khan, who had put on weight for his role of a wrestler in his last outing Sultan, says the physical transformation from fat-to-fit was a painful experience.

In the film, Salman’s character Sultan was seen ageing from a young Haryana wrestler to an older man, for which he had to gain several kilos.



“There is a lot of pain in undergoing physical transformation. I have been training for Tiger Zinda Hai and there is another film that I am training - it’s a dance film (referring to Remo D’Souza film). For Sultan, I was 96 kgs. I have shed 18-20 kgs,” Salman told reporters here last night.

The 51-year-old actor was speaking at the Zee Cine Awards held here last night.

Dabangg Movie Review - It Has Blockbuster Written All Over It

-
Image
Review of Dabangg: The fight between good and bad has been the fodder of many a Hindi film of 1970s and 1980s. In fact, it wouldn't be erroneous to state that these films dominated the cinema of yore and a lot of us, who have grown up on masala films/wholesome entertainers, will vividly recall the serpentine queues outside cinema halls and a mad scramble to book the tickets of those films. Hardcore masala films were relished with glee by the audience then. Salman Khan and Arbaaz Khan in Dabangg However, for some inexplicable reason, masala films became extinct or should I say, disappeared from the face of Hindi cinema over a period of time. GHAJINI and WANTED revived this genre, bringing back memories of the bygone era. Now DABANGG takes this genre one step ahead. Be forewarned. DABANGG is rustic, has loads of action, harps on the age-old mother-son and varied relationships [half-brother, step-father], eventually turns into a vendetta fare, has a number of songs placed smartly in t...
