Just a couple of months ago there was a buzz that things are no longer as cordial between Salman and Aamir as they use to be. And that's because incidentally both of them have landed in the same battle territory with their respective films based on a somewhat similar theme.
Another buzz about their alleged tiff in the recent past further exposed the severity of the situation. Though we considered it as some floating rumor, but now after seeing the recent developments don't know why we are feeling that Salman and Aamir are genuinely competing with each other.
And what made us think so is the just released first look of Salman's upcoming cine flick "Sultan" in which he is playing the character of a 40-year-old Haryanvi wrestler, Sultan Ali Khan. And believe me unlike many of the avatars which Sallu played in recent time in this one he is looking far more fierce.
On the hind side you can either call it a coincidence or our observer bias, but up till some extent even these looks of Salman are reminding us of Aamir's "Dangal" avatar. Isn't it guys? Anyhow.
While unveiling this first look from his twitter handle Salman wrote: "Here is a picture that was taken while training."
Besides it is also pertinent to mention here that in order to make his avatar fully authentic, Salman has already started pursuing training in wrestling and mixed martial arts with international fight coordinator Larnell Stovall for this movie.
Produced by Aditya Chopra under YRF banner this directorial venture of Salman is expected to clash with SRK's Raees on Eid next year.
