In a group interview to promote his upcoming film ‘Sultan’, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan spoke about doing a sports based film for the first time in his career. The actor had previously rejected ‘Chak De India’, which Shah Rukh Khan signed.
“It was high time for me to get into sports. This was the first good sports film that came to me, so I did it. Chak De India was offered to me but Shah Rukh Khan also needs to get some good films” Salman said.
“When I was offered Chak De, I was doing Partner and those kinds of films. My image was totally different. It was a serious film and I was doing commercial cinema, which I am still doing. I will never move out of that format but there will be meaningful films like Ready and Dabangg, which actually teach you a lot” Salman said, with his tongue firmly in his cheek.
‘Sultan’ releases in theatres next Wednesday.
I think fasal Kerala should change his ID to @I am a bloody hypocrite. Suits him to a T.
if salman had done chakdeindia, collections would be same like the move that release one week later of it……………….MARIGOLD
@Anand, OMG u even liked srk’s movie??
just think that SATTAR minute dialogue, thatexpression srk makes after winning the world cupand the bgm of JIJA TERA, the intensity in his eyes………………………………………………..
This criminal could never do that
Thank SRK, Srk rejected ek tha tiger and now u have association with Kabir Khan
@Anand_The Original
U have not included Veer Zaara in your list. Do watch it bro, you will love it.
As usual Salman haters jumping the gun……like our brilliant Nipun…..lolz.
Did you guys read the phrase tounge-in-cheek???……..read again and then understand.
It is a shame that you guys who are so called “intellectuals” don’t read things or understand and calling names to a well established star.
@indicine is ashamed of you guys being their regular visitors…….lolz.
I’LL NEVER SAY SRK IS YRF/ DHARMA MADE
HE’S ACTUALLY MADE OF SALMIR’S REJECTED MOVIES
HAAHAA
BOLLYWOOD HAS ONLY 3 KHANS
SALMAN
AAMIR
AND
IRRFAN KHAN
This guy has a lot of who it seems heck he couldn’t have pulled of Chak De! at all so it seems it was for the best that SRK got to do it. Of this egomaniac would have accepted the role then he would have surely felt like a raped man cause he couldn’t act at all.
lol. Ready was a meaningful movie.
SRK needed good movies??? Dude, you couldn’t have made Chak de India, what it is…!
@ salman fan- 1:56-pm where did u find DDlJ was offered to salman first? Kuch v mann me aayega toh bol doge.ok,HAHK was 1st offered to SRK.
So what,is srk the only actor who become nude? So what about aamir in PK?Salman also have a semi nude scene in baaghi.nude and intimate scenes are demand of script.today,every actor and actresses giving nude and semi nude scenes.so why these morons only bashing srk? Shame on these hypocrites!!
@JC
Afterall they are srkians. How could you expect sense from them?
@JC, that was exactly what I was about to say after reading the comments of srk fans.
Lol :D seriously srk fans r u so dumb, illiterate and retarded or blind enough that u don’t get the humor of his statements???? :D :D
After reading that statement didn’t u read the line “with his tongue firmly in his cheek.”???
No doubt why srk fans are termed as eternal bakritards!! :D :D
CDI would have been a fun watch had bhai done it instead of overacting Khan…!
FACT
@himanshu, thanks dude, i forgot they were srkians….lolz.
@whoever says that Salman would never have done justice to Chak De!!!! eat this……Srk would have drowned Lagaan….cuz it was offered to him first, and look what Aamir did with that, an Oscar nomination!!!!!
So, dear Srkians, don’t pull others leg, cuz you will pulled too……mercilessly.
You never know what another actor is capable off. The now legendary Amitabh Bachchan was always ridiculed by the so called “intellectuals” that he can only shine in masala movies…….years down the line Amitabh has more national awards than many other versatile actors…!!!!
So don’t throw up garbage, cuz you may have to eat it one day, and mark my words, it doesn’t taste good too……!!! lolz.
Dabangg and Ready are meaningful movies ? And what it taught to Salman ? Oh I think it taught to Salman that doing doing stupid masala movies is the only way of surviving in the industry .
@aNIPUN ja Daaru
Calling yourself a kritik when number one your reviews are so manipulative that it seems you yourself got tangled up in the web of gibberish you were writing and number two read the quotes of peoples statements properly you jaadooholic…!
‘Tongue firmly in cheek’
Your stupidity is reaching newer heights with each new passing day
Thankgod Salman rejected Chak De India . Due to him we were able to see such a mindblowing performance from Srk . Cant imagine what Salman would have done to the movie if he would have acted in Chak De India .
I dont understand why people troll Srk for doing nude scene in Maya Memsab . Whats wrong in nude scenes if it is necessary . I mean that its so common in Hollywood, even full frontal nudity . But its hollywood so no one cares but if the same thing happens in bollywood people start calling cheap and disgusting . Why such double standards ?
Alright, it was a sarcastic one! But why he placed Ready and Dabbang in same category then?
None of them were meaningful. But the latter is entertaining at least
Chakhde turned only classic because of salman. Thanks salman for rejecting it.
Now I completely believe that Sultan will be a meaningful cinema just like Ready. ?
Sultan is coming to teach us the meaning of ghatiyapan and chichorapan and mazakpan of a wrestler cum rockstar cum non actor. ???
Hahahaha salman has made fun of himself
SRK has no dearth of good roles Lallu.Darr, Baazigar, Kabhi Haa Kabhi Naa, DDLJ, Pardes, Dil Se ( cult classic in spite of being flop), Kuch Kuch Hota Hain, Kabhi KhusHi Kabhie Gum, Devdas (selected as the 10 best movies in the millenium worldwide by Time Magazine), Kal Ho Naa Ho, Veer Zaara, Swades, Paheli, Don, Chak De India, My name is Khan, Don 2, Jab Tak Hain Jaan and now Fan. SRK will be forever remember among the audience of Indian cinema for his immortal roles. And Lallu will be called a non-actor who made masala films aimed for rickshawala audience.
All time blockbuster on the way
@jc,you didn’t get it.if KING KHAN would have did LAGAAN,THEN IT WOULD HAVE ALREADY WON OSCAR forget only nomination.amir no doubt a good actor and managed to choose good script but not a terrific actor like THE KING OF BOLLYWOOD.JUST the man whose HIGHEST FILMS nominated from India for OSCAR should have win if would have did Lagaan.
but salman he is a bloody non actor you dumb.don’t you feel any shame of comparing your non actor’s with Actors?????be happy with your bhai’s mahacraps like ready,dabang-1,!!,bg,kick,prdp like sadakchap movies.that’s what he deserves beyond that he couldn’t see anything great nor will make you watch something great.
So you 3rd class masala bhojpuri movie watchers please don’t teach other about CLASS which you bhojpuris don’t have.not a single movie of salamn can ever REMEBERED as a all time golden classic,not even a single,rofl.that’s your bhojpuri star’s aukat.
@salman fan,oh wow!!!!! I’m glad that you never said it’s salman who gave birth to KING SRK and brought to Bollywood and gave HIM job.still see your star’s aukat,if KING KHAN will wish then can buy 10 salman khan at a time,see came from nowhere still THE LEGEND.
Your star rejected Baazigar because to lose the romantic image he gained and rejected CDI with fear of having another marigold/salaam e ishq which was not from masala genre.
Why don’t you dare to accept which your idol accepted —-he will never so non-masala genre.darpok star ke darpok fans,don’t blabber much because it’s your own star who slapped you this time,rofl.
meaningful like Ready and Dabangg ?
Bhai phir se kar di na gadbad
@sss
i think only two big brands Yashraj/Dharma made srk a tiny star as i said to you but i forgot salman who reject movies like bazigar,chakde,ddlj,swadesh.. And then after doing these movie srk become an avg star instead a tiny star..
SRK has no dearth of great roles Lallu.Darr, Baazigar, Kabhi Haa Kabhi Naa, DDLJ, Pardes, Dil Se ( cult classic in spite of being flop), Kuch Kuch Hota Hain, Dil To Pagal Hain, Kabhi KhusHi Kabhie Gum, Devdas (selected as the 10 best movies in the millenium worldwide by Time Magazine), Kal Ho Naa Ho, Veer Zaara, Swades, Paheli, Don, Chak De India, My name is Khan, Don 2, Jab Tak Hain Jaan and now Fan. SRK will be forever remembered among the audience of Indian cinema as a legendary actor whereas Lallu will be known as a non-actor who made masala movies for rickshawala audience.
Some funny guys here are commenting that CDI would have been good if Lallu were in it. My God I can’t imagine the DISASTER it would have been, not only from box office perspective but from the perspective from his non-acting disaster. He would have killed any depth the film could have had. He better do films like Marigold, LOL.
