Ali Abbas Zafar posted a picture of the Sultan himself working out for arguably the biggest film of 2016. Salman Khan has been slogging it out in the gym and putting on muscle to play the role of a wrestler in his upcoming film.
Sultan is scheduled to release in theatres during Eid this year. There have been reports doing the rounds that the film could be delayed, but through a source at Yash Raj Films, we can once again confirm that Sultan is on-schedule to be wrapped up by April this year.
It’ll be all Sultan for Salman in the next 4 months or so and the makers have Anushka Sharma’s dates too.
The teaser of Sultan is expected to be attached to the prints of Shah Rukh Khan’s FAN, which releases in theatres on April 15.

Honestly just like I said I never was excited for dilwale despite being srkian. However I would say currently aamir and Salman are doing much better and definitely much bigger stars. I loved BB, PK and 3 idiots much more than craps like don 2, JTHJ, Dilwale, HNY and Chennai express. Srk is losing all the respect for me. I dont know why but I may turn into aamir and Salman fan if he keeps doing mediocre movies. Now fan is my only last hope. If fan is a crap, then I will never ever watch any srk film.
Arnold or Salman?
Let’s vote
Arnold- like
Salman- dislike
Bring it on!
Wow awesome… Salman doesnt need magic of VFX to have fit body..
looking forward to Salman

and it is kind of steroids magic that make sallu look like buffalo swelling body…….and all the lalluland people are going gaga what grest about it????????? and it is fake body it is VFX magic ?????
just one word ,blockbuster
A clash would severely dent the opening weekend of both films as they would only make half of what they would with a solo release – none would pre pone as it would again lose out due to ramadhan. Raees has been in the making for over a year and the shooting will be complete by end of this month giving it plenty of time for post production. Sultan shoot started in december will end by march/april not much time for post production and all other extras. All i will say you bhaisexuals make me laugh after seeing a semi nude photo of sallu you all start to have orgasms hahaha – control yourselves
Omg
@Joe – the srkian Prepare yourself for a bigger disappointment in Fan an Raees I don’t think they are going to be that great going by rumors coming from inside the camp.
Good to see sultan in the ring…..
In 1 day competing against both khan ….1stly raees and then dangal due to same genre film……wow maja ayega……
The year has started off on a good note already
with the first release of 2016, the Amitabh
Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar-starrer Wazir kick
starting the box office game. We have has many
interesting films lined up for release this year and
with that we are going to witness many box office clashes too. But the most spoken about
clash of 2016 is the clash of the superstars of
Bollywood, Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan. Both their films, Sultan and Raees respectively, are
going to release this year on Eid, but there was a
buzz since a while that the clash might be
avoided to cut the losses. We have already seen Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale
being affected due to its clash with Ranveer
Singh and Deepika Padukone’s Bajirao Mastani
and vice-versa. Many distributors also incurred
huge losses because of the clash. Many cine-goers
also couldn’t see their favourite film for a few days because of the lesser number of shows and
screen space that each film had received. So,
everyone was wishing that this ‘clash of the
titans’ would be avoided. And here is the FABULOUS news that you all have
been waiting for. Yes, Salman Khan’s Sultan and Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees won’t be clashing on Eid this year. So did one film shift because of the
other? Nah, that isn’t the case at all. The real
reason is completely different. Apparently, Sultan is going to be delayed by a
few weeks or even a month. Why? The very
obvious answer is the leading lady of the film,
Anushka Sharma, was finalised only two days
backs. While Raees will be ready by the end of
this month, the crew of Sultan will still be shooting till the end of April and hence they
won’t be ready to release their film on Eid. A
source close to Sultan reveals to us EXCLUSIVELY,
“Sultan and Raees won’t be clashing on Eid
anymore. Aditya Chopra and Salman Khan took a
long time in finalising the leading actress of the film and though Salman has shot for various
portions of the film already, a lot of shots and
post-production work is still pending. Aditya
Chopra also wants this to be one of the biggest
films of the year and hence he is going to be
looking into a lot of aspects of the film including Anushka Sharma’s look for the film. They will
make her look like a real wrestler and also train
her to speak in a Haryanvi accent before starting
the shoot. This means that Sultan will still be on
the floor till April end and the makers won’t be
able to complete all the post-production work till Eid. It seems the producers will now look for
another suitable release date and make an official
announcement soon.” So this means the delay in finalising the leading
lady of Sultan has sent the whole film’s schedule
for a toss and no one including producer Aditya
Chopra, director Ali Abbas Zafar and actors
Salman Khan and Anushka Sharma are in any hurry to complete the film in a rush. They want to
put out a convincing, realistic and entertaining
film and hence they will have chosen to move
their release date. Earlier in an EXCLUSIVE interview with
BollywoodLife, Shah Rukh Khan had also
mentioned that they (team Raees) were willing to
move if Sultan is ready in time. He had said,
“Yeah, I guess we (Raees) could shift. But I don’t
know the readiness of Sultan. Raees will be ready in January, in like 20 days. Plus, they all are
friends – Adi (Aditya Chopra), Salman (Khan), Ali
(Abbas Zafar), I know them all. So, if mutually we
all can figure out a date where one of us goes a
week up or down, we might! Or we might not!” But it seems that Shah Rukh Khan won’t have to
shift his release date after all and there won’t be
any blood loss for either of the two films. In fact,
this is a win-win situation for both the films. Both
the films are said to be unconventional and HUGE
entertainers and now that they are not going to clash with each other, they will open very well
and may become the highest grossers of the
year. Are you happy that Salman Khan’s Sultan and Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees aren’t clashing anymore
@aisha iqbal. # aisha let me confess I was about to press dislike button being a Salmaniac forever especially when you say we should not target The 3rd khan. Something says I read your comment again but honestly it made sense. Sad about the death rate percentage in India. Also your honest feeling so I want to say that is a very nice comment. I believe also every Salman and Srkhan fan should independently go and watch their movies I still will be bias siding Salman to break Srk clash but atleast with this clash we will finally see who deserves the Sultan title. Well said dear well said. I love reading your comments and I think among all other fan apart from We and Srkhan fans you are among the best comment talker Even I am sure 3rd khan fans like your very neural but good comment. You praise everybody which is very good. I am also wishing your Ajay movie very best.
2016 is the year Salman Sir will be double more popular than ever before mark my words. Aamir Hritik Ajay Akki also will do very nice. For 3rd khan until they start Respecting Salman more and stop dreaming of snatching that Sultan title from him.
Wowww what pic
Awesome look, film of the year
super duper faadu look outstanding body
Woah killer look
S U L T A N
All da way
I want no clash but the problem to release the movie on holiday if not EID then Diwali is booked by Ajay Shivaay, Christmax is booked Amir DANGAL & 15-Aug booked by Hirthik so no space for big release.
Excited for sultan. Not interested in BO records but expecting a great story and content as bajrangi bhaijaan.
sultan was going to be directed by shimit amin….but due to some unknown reason adi replaced him with ali zafar…now tell me if the content was too bad shimit amin will ever be ready to direct this film….and kabir khan is also giving inputs for the film…and lastly SALMAN is not srk…Jo ranveer se v jit nehi paya….and every salman fans want this clash….and I promise we will crush srk….just bring it on…
I want clash….!
I guess it was Anushka’s NH10 image that made them sign her……She can bring that intensity to the role………other than her only Priyanka could have done justice…..but i feel Quantico getting fresh new episodes is the reason she couldn’t do…..and the reason YRF waited so long…….all other girls were simply doing PR work of being Sultan’s heroine.
Aamir fans worried that interest in Dangal will go down after Sultan as both films are based on wrestling and let’s face it..these type of movies have a limited appeal as witnessed by Brothers and previous movies based on wrestling/boxing.
