Salman Khan.

Salman Khan is aware that the years are piling up. But he is not going to sit quietly and let photoshopping and body doubling do all the work to make him look young on screen. He has resolved to take matters into his own hands. And as a result, the shooting of his war film Battle Of Galwan has been halted.

Salman has resolved that there will be no more biryanis for him, and definitely no alcohol; and no more missing the gym regimen early in the morning either. A friend of the actor says, “In all his recent releases, Salman’s stunts were done by a body double. But this one is special. Battle Of Galwan is a homage to our martyred soldiers.

Salman doesn’t want any of the real hero’s glory to be sullied by fakery. He has taken a break to get into shape before the shooting resumes, so he can look convincing and credible.” This is the first time in his career since Sultan (where he played an overweight wrestler) that Salman is making an effort to look authentic on screen.
