Salman Khan sports handlebar moustache for ‘Sultan’; first look revealed

Salman Khan playa the role of a wrestler from Haryana, Kesari Sultan, to be directed by Ali Abbas Zafar.  The actor has already begun training for the film, which is said to be incredibly high on action.

“Wrestling is not a sport. It is about fighting what lies within,” reads the image of Sultan.

According to recent reports, the gruelling training sessions had left Salman Khan in pain. “In ‘Sultan’, I am a wrestler who goes into MMA (Mixed Martial Arts). It’s a different league of fitness. I have been training for the past five days and my head, back and knee are hurting. Everything is hurting, actually,” the actor had said.

Salman Khan’s ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ was all praise for the actor’s intense look.
