His last release Bajrangi Bhaijaan may still be playing to packed theatres, but Salman Khan has moved on to his next project, Sultan. The actor has been working with a team of trainers to build his physique for the film. “It’s too early for me to talk about Sultan. But I have started working out and need to put on some muscle fat to look beefy,” the superstar said.
We point out that his contemporary Aamir, who also plays a wrestler in his next film Dangal has put on oodles of weight to get into the skin of his character. “Nahi nahi! Aamir ke jaisa nahi kar sakta,” (No, I can’t do it like Aamir).
He continues, “We’re both playing wrestlers in our respective films, but there is no similarity between the two roles. We’re also building our bodies in our own way.”
Is there a special diet as well? “No baba. I don’t follow a diet. Everyone knows that I eat biryani, mutton, chicken or anything cooked at home. Actually food that comes from my house is enough to feed more than half the film’s unit,” says the actor who is known to treat unit members to his home-cooked meals.
