Bollywood megastar Salman Khan will be India’s goodwill ambassador for the 2016 Rio Olympics, which begins on August 5 this year.
It’ll be the first time that a Bollywood actor has been appointed as the goodwill ambassador for the national squad for an event as massive as the Olympics.
The announcement will be made in New Delhi in front of sporting stars like MC Mary Kom, Sardar Singh, Ritu Rani, Deepika Kumari, Archery, Apurvi Chandela, Manika Batra.
The announcement couldn’t have come at a better time because Salman himself will be playing the role of a sporting icon and a wrestler in his upcoming film ‘Sultan’ which releases in July this year.

@Indicine where is Shaggy, our old Indicine user who suddenly disappeared after the MAHA failure of PRDP. If he is operating with another name then please do let us know if he is operating with another name and same goes for Fasal Kerela.

Don’t worry India will do well this time for most of our people have extended love, forgiveness and acceptance to Salman and God will bless all those who care.
Remember always that love and forgiveness is the heart beat of God but hatred and spite comes from the heart of Satan.
God blessing upon India and it’s people and those who are taking part and multiple blessing on Salman and Sultan.

#OnlySultanThisEID2016
INDIAN AUDIENCE DESERVE SALMAN KHAN… NOT LEGENDARY ACTOR LIKE SRK..
Love salman for his various charities , both known and unknown .i have forgiven his every indiscretion(if any).may india emerge out with more medals this time .
He deserves it. Great timing!!
Just have that feeling that Sultan should cross BB collection this year. Like Aamir he breaks and makes records.
Thank you Indicine.

@ hrithk at 3:21 pm : Welcome.
I also hope u inspire yours.
Great news all salman fans.
Raees is. It getting a good date in 2016. Might shift to 2017… Sultan ka darr !!!
I understand if one more movie flops SRK will not be able to recover hence he is playing very safe but then generally the movies that get delayed anyways underperform
Buzz around raees is very low even though teaser was released a year back… Shooting was wrapped long time back but then sultan was announced and SRK running to hide in some woods
Awesome
God bless you salman and i dont know why some people think indicine is pro srk site where as i feel indicine is in awe of salman khans humanity works but try to be as much nuetral as possible so that srk fans not get offended but i love indicine you must be a great human being who operate this site god bless you and keep doing good work with love from new zealand
hahahahaha.. kya din aaye..
Proud of india ,salman khan unlike some haklu who find intolerance in india.

Salman is very Good choice ….©
Superb, Amazing, Fantastic news thanks Indicine you really made my day…..
Congratulation Salman Bhai….You totally deserve this….
This is really big news because Salman is 1st Bollywood star who get this honor and he deserve this..
Sabki Aan, Sanki Shaan, Sabka ek Bhaijaan…..SULTAN Salman Khan…
All hail the mighty Sultan Ali Khan!! For the first time ever!
While the meow bhai likes to lick the feet of the foreign white people, Salman serves the nation. And most of his movies today are shot in beautiful locations in India promoting tourism industry… that makes him a national hero.
Now there is no stopping for SULTAN…it’s gonna be Big Blockbuster….

See You In The Ring….
But Indicine, I’m really disappointed with u. You have blocked me on twitter? Dare you not face the truth? Sorry, easily blocking people is a behaviour of the cowards like krk & srk. Now, u have joined the gang….
