Salman Khan's Sultan and Aamir Khan's Dangal are quite similar in terms of concept. With Salman getting a release before Aamir's film, the latter is already nerve wrecked!
Salman Khan and Aamir Khan have been friends for the longest time. Not just that, the two have been quite vocal about it as well. But recently, there have been hints of a fallout between the two. With Salman's Sultan and Aamir's Dangal both getting ready to go on the floors around the same time, tension is building up all the more between the two Khans.
Sultan and Dangal, both revolve around wrestling and the life of a wrestler. While Sultan is essentially a love story of a wrestler, Dangal is loosely based on Mahvir Phogat's life. But both film seems to have the same premise and that has only added to Aamir's woes. Why? Says a source, "Salman is going on floors this November and will be seen flaunting two body prototypes. Aamir has planned to start shooting for Dangal from September but he will be taking a break in between to shed all the weight he's gained to shoot for the first half of the film where he plays a young wrestler. Salman doesn't need to worry about that as he is not playing through different ages in the film."
Sultan is scheduled for a release on Eid next year and Dangal is tentatively eyeing a Christmas release. Will Salman's flick sabotage Aamir's film? It might! Both have the same theory and now we hear that Ali Abbas Zafar, the director of Sultan has already finished with the recee for Sultan. Coincidentally, the makers have zeroed in on Haryana as the perfect location to shoot Sultan. Now this has got Aamir nerve wrecked. Well, even Aamir and his director has decided to shoot Dangal in Haryana and he is worried that the films might end up having the same locales and backdrop.
This is more of a worry to Aamir than Salman. Simply because Sultan will come around five-six months before Dangal and it will be Aamir's flick that will sound and look repetitive. Aamir, instead had a plan and he spoke to his dear friend Aditya Chopra who's producing Sultan and has reportedly asked him to change the locations of his film. Being a nice friend, we hear that Aditya has also agreed and has hence asked the team to scout for locations in Punjab for the film.
Still Aamir, we wonder if Dangal will eventually be a huge crowd puller if the audiences already have their tryst with wrestling with Salman's Sultan. As of now, all we know is that Salman's film is definitely giving Aamir some sleepless nights.
