I am doing a romantic film soon, action is tough: Salman Khan

In an exclusive interview, Salman Khan talks about his health, future film and the record breaking collections of Ek Tha Tiger!

On his health and why he can’t make excuses

I am the Tiger, I can’t make excuses like ‘I am unwell, I can’t do it. I have done all the things like running, beating, falling, jumping from one place to another.. if you are physically fit, you can perhaps do all this. But it takes a lot of toll on your body as you are doing the same thing the whole day.

On his future plans

I am doing a romantic film soon (Sooraj Barjatya’s next). Action is very tough.. One has to get up at odd hours, like early morning, to do action films, work till late night, do action in worst conditions like in hot weather, fighting on rooftops and dirty places. It is difficult.

On the record breaking collections of Ek Tha Tiger

The exact collection starts from single screens and multiplexes in cities and small towns. With ticket prices and number of theatres also increasing, the films are likely to do a huge amount of business. Soon, this Rs 100 crore will be like Rs 10 crore. And talking about the overseas business, who knows what business the film is exactly doing in overseas? Once the distributor starts giving actual figures, the numbers will definitely go up.
