Salman would be worried if fans who pay weren’t happy with his film: Sohail Khan

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s latest release ‘Tubelight’ hasn’t done well at the box office, but his brother Sohail Khan who had an important role to play in the Kabir Khan directed film, has said the actor would be “really worried” if his fans and people who pay for the ticket didn’t like the film.

“Salman Bhai would be really worried if his fans and the people, who pay money to watch his film, were not happy. Because, he really is concerned about the ticket-paying audience which must not feel let down at any cost” Sohail said.

He also asked the critics to review the film and not Salman’s life.

“Of course, the critics have every right to feel whatever they think right. And, Bhai accepts that without prejudice or suspicion. But, they should avoid personal comments and barbs aimed at an actor’s personal life. Please review the film, not Salman Bhai’s life” he added.

Defending his brother’s decision to play a ‘weak and dumb’ role, unlike his usual larger-than-life characters which his fans love, Sohail said, all that Salman fans expect out of the actor is his mere presence.

“It is said he just needs to come in front of the camera and stand on the screen to make his fans happy. He could do anything he wants on screen. Or inversely, do nothing at all. Yet, Bhai chose to play this character who is humble, weak and vulnerable. I think it takes a lot of guts to play this atypical hero” Sohail said.

  • @s.a.s

    If he’s bcm superstar from megastar just bcz of one underperformer Tubelight then what will you call srk, whose last 4-5 releases are huge underperformers? Srk doesn’t even deserve STAR title forget SUPERSTAR title… Isn’t it???

  • @8:45pm

    Abey jhandu, Tubelight has changed nothing….Bollywood’s top 2 highest opening day still belong to every star’s Baap Salman Khan… Out of 10 bumper openers of the decade 5 belong to the Baap Salman Khan…Out top 15 Khans openers 8 are Salman Khan starrers…. That’s Box office ka BAAP Megastar SALMAN KHAN for you..

  • When the producers knew that it was an emotional film which was unlike salman’s other hit movies,why did they release the movie during eid? Instead they could have released TZH. Why was this movie sold for such high price? Overconfidence?

  • Salman Bhai raises the bat for runs of flops, 50 comes up for Salman Bhai with tubelight. History created!!

  • Salman should keep his ego side. should focus on good story & good script that’s all.

  • Sohail, First time public is saying is You did your role sincerely in this Jaljaa Jaljaa Jajaa movie… Means, Public considered you as an better actor in comparison to your brother who is non actor / Eid made star…

    So congratulations to you and ya stop trying to gain sympathy by your such statements, Public are clever and they finally understood that it is just a foolishness to spend money on that Non Actor who is nothing without Eid and doesn’t know HOW TO ACT?

    And moreover ab to Eid ne bhi dhoka de diya, Jis par Uska career tika hua that aur Jis time ka wait Wo whole year karta Tha kyunki, Without Eid aane ki Uski himmat nahi this na aur aayega to auqaat pata chal jayegi…

    Lekin ab to EID bhi haath se gayi, So sad… Tch Tch Tch…

    Ek Tha Salmoron : (EID 2009 To Eid 2017)

  • Salman certainly superstar not megastar in India only three megastar Amitabh Rajnikanth and chiranjeevi

  • After reading, some regular Salman fans comments (not all) who knows to give only one way to talk about box office. I feel for them, Rassi jal gayi par bal nahi gaya. Dil ki tanhai ko awaz bana lete h, Chu**yapan jab had se Gujarata h to kisi ko bhi baap bana lete h.

  • 95 crs 4 days is below average for megastar Salman khan, just because his superstardom is unmatchable and trade expects more…..trade expects every salman starrer to be 300crs.

    But the same numbers are blockbuster for bhakt kumar and global phanka.

    Well India expects a lot from bhaijaan this EID he failed no doubt he will bounce back with TZH…

    TZH will be blockbuster no doubt……….. Tiger Zinda hai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No first look, no teaser, no trailer still 300 crs,,

    Global phanka waiting for a clean hit from 2015???? JHS is already counted as a flop movie.

    Bhakt kumar still thinking when will my turn come to beat Tubelight collections!!!!

    All the haters wait for TZH ????

    Th best action movie in the history of indian cinema!!!!

  • Salman has so many flops in his name, that this disaster will have to find its own place. You are right Sohail, distributors are not his fans any more. So Salman doesn’t care about their tears…

  • Karen Arjuna assemble cast

    MA: Zyada garam hain

    Srk: Fan doesn’t work

    Salman: Tublight bi katam ho gaya

    Aamir: Naya light Talaash karo

    Ajay Devgan : Kuch mein Tezz nehi hain

    Akshay: Brothers fight math karo

    Ranbir: Besharam log

  • @TIGER-The real King
    Ahem, okay
    Until 1997(Before border)
    Top-2 highest openers, both were SRK starrers
    -Koyla(SRK)
    -Trimurti(SRK)

    After Boarder
    -Boarder
    -Koyla
    -Trimurti
    -DTPH

    (3 out of 4 were srk starrers)

    From 2001-2004 december, top openers
    -Main hoo na
    -Veer Zaara
    -K3g
    -MSK(This one may be wrong, pardon)
    -Devdas
    4 out of 5 were srk starrers
    All top-3 were SRK starrtes

    We have such record since 1993(BOI update left).

    “U keep on talking about Pre-Eid. Well K3G was also pre eid, u know its opening, right?”-From a reader
    Don was pre-eid(Eid-deewali), u know its opening in clash.So pre-eid is just your “BAHANA”

  • Shame on you sohil khan . distubuter almost lost more then 70 cr and you are saying fans are liking the movie , this movie wrost movie of decade .

  • “If you are talking about Khans then it was SRK followed by Salman followed by Aamir. But the 90s overall belonged to Sunny Deol”-BOI

  • yesterdays collection is 5 cr put bhai own calculater is showing 7 cr for sure . that is the real collection of bhai stardom

  • @unmatchable mkki

    Hahaha…Zindagi bhar me 17cr ki opening and 135cr ki lifetime naa dekhnewale mkkitards ab Tubelight pe bakwas karenge…!
    Tubelight’s opening day – 21cr
    Mkki highest opening day – 16cr.

    Tubelight lifetime – 140-145cr
    Mkki’s highest lifetime – 130cr.

    Bhai’s washout Tubelight is doing much better than mkki’s best performers…. Sab AUKAAT AUKAAT ki baat…..!

  • @Pradeep : Who cares Whoever you are ?? Let Salman give 50 crs disaster we will still love & support him !!!!!!

  • It is not movie which made him a ‘Megastar’ so one flop or bad movie can’t snatch the title from it. Going by haters logic Hrithik, SRK & Akki should be called as side actors or local doubles !!!!! Lol

  • @unmatchable mkki

    Hahaha…Zindagi bhar me 17cr ki opening and 135cr ki lifetime naa dekhnewale mkkitards ab Tubelight pe bakwas karenge…!
    Tubelight’s opening day – 21cr
    Akki highest opening day – 16cr.

    Tubelight weekend – 62cr
    Akki highest weekend – 50cr.

    Tubelight lifetime – 140-145cr
    Mkki’s highest lifetime – 130cr.

    Bhai’s washout Tubelight is doing much better than Akki’s best performers….This is the aukaat of your gobar star in front of Bhai…..!

  • TIGER without EID holiday Tubelight will do at the same level of collection as fan 85cr even akki sir rejected film brothers do +80cr and just wait till AUG tepk will cross the lifetime collection of tubelight easily
