  • Everyone Is Aware Of 'Dangal' Before 'Sultan', Says Salman
Superstar Salman Khan, who is close friends with Aamir Khan, says everyone is aware of the latter's "Dangal" much before his own "Sultan".
 
Asked to comment on Aamir's marketing strategy of releasing the poster of "Dangal" just before the release of "Sultan", Salman told IANS: "Everyone is aware of 'Dangal' much before 'Sultan'."
 
A biographical sports drama film directed by "Chillar Party" and "Bhootnath Returns" fame Nitesh Tiwari, "Dangal" starring Aamir is, like Salman's "Sultan", based on wrestling.
 
Asked how he liked Aamir's "Dangal" poster, Salman said: "'Dangal' poster is nice.. Aamir sitting with four girls, it's very nice. It's a very nice. Have you seen his body, he is after me. I gave him advice 'do not make 6 pack abs it's a role of a wrestler'. He said (Olympian wrestler) Sushil (Kumar) has made it but I said you don't get 6 pack abs."
 
In a recent press conference, Aamir had said Salman is a bigger superstar than him, and Salman quipped that Aamir never lies.
 
"He doesn't lie about anything.. that is one thing about him he doesn't lie."
