While Salman will be seen playing a boxer in the film, it still hasn’t been decided which actress will play his leading lady. Several names like Deepika Padukone and Parineeti Chopra were doing the rounds but no official announcement has been made.
Interestingly Salman’s good friend Aamir Khan will also be seen essaying the role of a wrestler in the upcoming film ‘Dangal’, which is also scheduled for a 2016 release. Whereas, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman will be locking horns on Eid 2016, with both their films -- ‘Raees’ and ‘Sultan’ -- scheduled to release on the festival weekend.
