Salman Khan with his stunt double on the sets of Sultan

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan prefers to do most of his stunts by himself, but has been using stunt doubles when filming challenging action sequences, especially those that require him to just from building to building (remember opening action sequence from Ek Tha Tiger?)

In the picture below, we see Salman’s body double who has a similar physical shape. Don’t mistake him for Jimmy Shergill.

The story of Sultan revolves around Salman, who is called Haryana Ka Sher. He falls in love with Haryana Ki Shaan, Anushka Sharma. Both actors have been taking professional wrestling training to make their scenes look realistic on screen.

Sultan releases in theatres during Eid this year. The teaser of the film will be out with FAN on April 15 and the theatrical trailer, sources say, will be out late May / early June.

  • @Sunny Tattiholic, Ajay Devgn is nothing less than Akki when it comes to actions. Get your brain right! When it comes to intense acting, Akki is a big zero before Ajay! Fact!!!

    Coincidentally, most of the films you have mentioned Akki doing some real stunts were flops because audiences found them unconvincing or didn’t like them. E.g. CCTC, Blue Film, Bhojpuri Brothers etc were big disasters.

    Yeah, try to know the differences between actions and stunts. Yes, he used to do a lot of dangerous stunts like in Khiladi420 by himself. Because, he used to be a spot boy for cast and crews of a film. And later, he meant nothing more than a stuntman to directors/producers then.
    He does fewer stunts than he used to do earlier because now, he means something to directors/producers now as he has achieved a status of a chotey Star at least. Got it?

  • @Challa u mean accepted? Or u want me to accept it? ? If u mean tht I should accept ur bullishit then even for me shahrukh & Saif Ali khan r best romantic heroes . Both r romance king . Accept it now .

    I hve nvr seen anybody taking actors like ajay John’s name when it comes to action. Everybody openly takes only one name that IS AKSHAY KUMAR. From media to bollywood industry to public. Many khan fans can’t give akshay alone credit where he deserves because of jealousy especially on indicine .FACT

    On the trailer launch of race 2 John nd saif Saif said when it comes to action there is one close to akshay. He is action king . This is just a small example BTW.

  • completly agree with @sunny akkihlic.. akshay is only in top category of best action heroes…Tiger shroff is also awesome, he has to do many more movies to earn the name in this category ..

    salman has also done stunts himself many times. Waiting for Sultan on eid.

  • @sunny akki himself told in one show of zoom tv that ajay is the best action hero after him.if you born after 2000 than go and watch some of ajay’s ninetees action film like phool aur kante, vijayapath; jigar, ekhi rasta, shaktiman, dibyashakti etc.in one interview of sunil shetty., he said akki and ajay are two best action heroes of bollewood where akki is all about marshal art and ajay is all about stunt.akki, ajay and sunil shetty revolunized action in bollywood

  • Some idiots are predicting sultan to ckrss 250 Cr. LOL. They better pray that sultan crosses 100 Cr with clash. Salman’s honeymoon is over which incidentally started in 2010 to 2015. This year will only belong to real megastar aamir khan followed by srk. Dangal will take record breaking opening and cross 400 Cr in India and sultan with clash is highly unlikely to cross even 150 Cr forget 250 Cr.

  • @Anand 8:05 pm : Don’t get into such arguments you fool. Go change your diaper.
    From which angle , SRK looks “Haddyon Ka dhancha” or skeleton ? He is fit and healthy even at his 50s.
    And if you can’t engulf the opening scene of HNY, how did you bear and engulfed the actions scenes of crap movies like Dabangg, Wanted etc , where a 400 kg bulky bhabhijan ,with her 250 kg of stomach (not sure what was she holding there –> probably Shera’s love) was beating the goons red and blue ….?
    Double standard caught red handed again.

  • Hrithik roshan also one of those actor who did action without using a body double and he also best action hero of Bollywood wid akshay kumar

  • Yeah that’s good @challa

    @Anand

    Wht about his other hit action movies like Sbse bda khiladi, m khiladi tu anari, Khiladiyo ka khiladi, rowdy rathore, holiday, Gabbar? ??? Just watch a single action scene of holiday or gabbar or rowdy rathore or his entries in award shows or stunts in his many movies. There r lot of things to say which nobody has even done in bollywood.just feel the difference between akshay nd any other bollywood star action stars .
    Nd yeah ajay is very powerful actor. That’s it . I will agree where u should be .

    Nd watch the difference between akshay kumar thumbs ad nd ur lallu salman khan’s body double thumbs up ad ??

    @Asit wht about other bollywood actors who says that akshay is hands down biggest action hero and no one is even close to him ?
    Nd I think even hrithik has done more Action then ajay in short period of time. Apart from his early career 90s movies which I haven’t seen ,ajay hasn’t done anything in action .singham was there but it was only about kicking nd punching . Sound effects made it look good .

  • @XZone, from every angle, meow bhai looks like a Skeleton!! He has lung infections as well possibly Tuberculosis due to chain smoking habit…
    Well, don’t babe, I will buy a new kind of diaper for you.

    How can I digest a fragile skeleton (who was once hospitalized for one plastic door fell on him during a shooting) beating up a huge muscular man??? LOL

  • LOL!! @Challa got defeated by Sunny Leone’s bro @Sunny Tattiholic! Too much fun!! He badly bashed meow bhai too. But no prob!

  • SULTAN is look like another Blockbuster of Salman Khan, eagerly waiting for this movie.

    @Indicine if he uses Body Double than can you plz tell me why there is cable behind Salman Khan in 2nd pic.

  • I think no one has notice this that there is cable behind Salman Khan in 2nd pic that means he is not body double for all of his stunt.

  • Those who are commenting on Salman using body double, I want to tell you that every actor uses body double it’s not a big deal even Akshay and Ajay uses body double even though there fans won’t accept this, but it’s truth.

    Some Akshay fans shouting here that Akki never use body double then let me tell you that he uses body double in Talaash: the hunt begins, Chandani Chowk to China (these are just two name there are many other movies) and those who don’t believe me than go and search in Google for the same you will find it easily. I know that Akshay and Ajay are well known for their Actions Avatar and I also agree that they both are great Action Hero in industry but even they uses Body Double for some stunts and it’s a fact.

    And for Srk fans I want to say just “Shut Up” even to hit a punch srk uses body double, its look just unrealistic when Srk (Haddiyon Ka Dhancha) hits any villain in movie.

    Salman Khan prefer to do most of his stunts by himself and this he himself said in interview that in SULTAN he did not use any body double for stunts which perform inside ring. Definitely he cannot do all his stunts like jumping from rooftop to rooftop, because he cannot take chance to get injured for long time. And we can’t even imagine that Srk doing such stunts (jumping roof to roof) because if he do that than, wind will blow him away in middle because he looks like “Sukhi Lakadi” sometimes even Kareena looks healthier than Srk.

  • @Sunny makkiholic, but irony is that the stunt man joker boy is best in stunts due to his secret circus practice as he was a circus joker and did some stunts in ? so may be. ???. But another irony is that none of joker boy’s action movie where he did his own stunt managed to be a semi hit and all were flops. ???

  • @Challa yes you seem like a sensible to no longer argue with that idiotic kid @Sunny alcoholic. But I agree with your first comment, ajay and akki both are best action heroes and srk is best romantic hero.

  • @Challa : In that case how did SRK as a common man managed to defeat an yokozuna in RNBDJ ?? Where was sense at that point of time ? sheer jealousy !!!!!!!!!!

    @xzone : Why dont you try for Mr. International if you are more fitter than Salman ? or may be try a stint in some Bhojpuri movie if you can. Can you or just keep blabbering ?? Grow up !!!! Every actor have limitations including your idol. When you reach 50 your stomach will be 500 kgs for sure (if Salman tummy is 250 kgs), thats my sure shot prediction unless you suffer from SRK disease !!!!!!!!!!!! Lol

  • @Funny : There is a difference between a MEGASTAR (Salman) and a mere stunt man (Akki). You realized it today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol

  • @Babaji : Remember Kick ?? Was it Akki (as a stuntman) or Hrithik who jumped from a building in Warsaw ?? Every actor have some limitations including your idols !!!!!!!! It is better avoid risk of injuries than injuring your head or brain !!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Fasal & @Kaali : I really want to see you guys on Indicine after Eid 2016. I hope you will not be hiding like @I am AKN @sss or keep crying like @Javed (after success of BB) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    #Charlie aur Kaali dono ki Marlie !!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol

  • @12:13 am : Lol, a plastic door fell on SRK and he was hospitalized. For you, it’s a joke, but for me it’s a pride that SRK went near that plastic door on his own .
    Because in case of your beloved bhabhijan, she would have used a body double for that sequence too.
    So it’s time for you and other bhabhijan fans to introspect that you are following such a coward. :P

  • though I am a salman khan fan but when action comes it means akhay kumar first.sunil shetty is an action star next ajay .Salman also proved that he is very good at action.Action don’t suits amir ,saif,varun,shahid.But Shahrukh can’t do action roles.

  • Hatts off salman khan. you are the only guy who can compete with the biggest megastar aamir khan. otherwise no one can come close to aamir except for salman.

  • @Xzone shame on you. you are a chameleon. don’t pretend to be srkian. a real srkian never talk such crap against india’s biggest megastar salman khan. from now on, we will never consider you as real srkian. you are a fake bimbo chameleon girl.

  • Waow Indicine edited my words on @Anand but didn’t edited TATTIHOLIC WORD ..That’s superb BTW @challa is a sensible guy,he is not a Shit like u nd I hve mentioned hit action films name of akshay above . 6 action hit films .
