A Raped woman Controversy

This is not the first time Sultan star Salman Khan has landed in a soup for his comments and sense of humour, and as usual there aren’t many who can palate it.

Salman was recently quoted by a Bollywood news website saying that after his hectic wrestling shoots for Sultan, in which he plays a wrestler along with co-star Anushka Sharma, the actor apparently felt like “a raped woman”.

Salman Khan Sultan

Salman Khan's controversy refuses to die down days before his next big release 'Sultan.' The actor, who appeared for the interviews of his film, has found himself in a fresh series of controversies where he spoke about how tired he felt after completing the shooting schedules as a wrestler. His analogy drew reference from the feeling of a "raped woman" post his shoot. This has made Khan face the ire of the public and media alike. Now, even celebs from the film industry are voicing their opinions and recently Salman's good friend, Kangana shared her piece of mind. At a recent event, the actress shared how horrible it is to say something like that. Something that is extremely insensitive. She also added that we should not support a mentality where we point fingers at each other and bring each other down. "As a society, we have to take responsibility and stand united. It’s a disgrace for the whole society and not an individual," she said.

Anushka Shar Finalised Opposite Salman Khan in Sultan

Produced by Aditya Chopra and written-directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, 'Sultan',which has been shot in Karjat, is reportedly based on the life of a wrestler.

One of the fittest stars of Bollywood, Salman has gone through intensive training for wrestling and mixed martial arts for Zafar's directorial with international action director Larnell Stovall.

He shooting of Salman Khan-starrer Sultan began long before the leading lady was cast for the film. It’s unheard of. When they announced the name of Anushka Sharma for the part of the female wrestler and Salman’s love interest in the film, there was almost a hushed silence of disbelief. Because she just didn’t look the part. Wrestlers have to be big and bulky, right? Wrong. Sultan Director Ali Abbas Zafar says, “It’s a myth that women wrestlers have to be strong and huge.

It is completely wrong. Because they fight in a certain weight category. So if you control your weight it’s easier for you to fight and go to a next level.” Ali, stayed in Haryana for three months while researching for the film, and he found that most girls are lean. Here, Ali explains why he was convinced that Anushka was the right choice for the film.
