Aamir Khan talks about ‘Sultan’ Salman Khan: Know what the actor has to say!

Mumbai: Aamir Khan and Salman Khan have been friends for long. The two have often heaped praises on each others’ films and have been supportive of their work. Interestingly, the two Khans will be playing wrestlers in their upcoming films.

As Aamir gears up to essay the role of Mahavir Phogat in a biopic titled ‘Dangal’, Salman is training hard to play ‘Sultan’ in Ali Abbas Zafar’s film based on wrestling.

However, there is absolutely no competition between the two. On the contrary, Aamir has some really nice things to say about Salman and his film ‘Sultan’.

“Salman's films are always good, so I have lot of expectations from 'Sultan'. Like how all wait with bated breaths for his films, I too wait for it. Definitely it'll be a very good film," said Aamir at the screening of Sonam Kapoor's film ‘Neerja’.

About his physique in ‘Dangal’, he said, "(It's) Not like '3 Idiots', but similar to 'Ghajini'. I gained 25 kilos in 6 months and the shooting of my overweight self has been completed. The same character is younger in the beginning of the film when he is a national champion wrestler like Sushil Kumar ji."

"I've been working hard on that look, it'll take 4-6 months to get there," Aamir said.

‘Sultan’ is slated for an Eid release while ‘Dangal’ is set for a Christmas release this year.

This will be Aamir’s third Christmas release after ‘Dhoom’ and ‘PK’.
