Sultan trailer out: Salman Khan's fight for glory is one to watch

What better way to combat those midweek blues than a dose of Salman Khan in a power-packed trailer?

The first look of the biographical sports drama, Sultan was finally unveiled yesterday and it's got us feeling all kinds of giddy!

Watch it here:

The movie chronicles the rise, fall and rise of a small town wrestler, Sultan Ali Khan (played by Salman Khan) and his journey to attain global fame. Sultan not only faces obstacles in his career but also in his personal life.

It's fairly evident that even at 50, Khan is at his physical best; the actor went through intensive training for the movie with international action director, Larnell Stovall.

Come on, look at all those bricks!

Anushka Sharma plays his love interest, Aarfa, also a wrestler. In the trailer, we see him spot her and be smitten at first sight: "Like a doctor marries a doctor, an engineer is paired with an engineer, similarly, I will marry this girl."

All Anushka had to do to win Salman's heart was defeat a male opponent.

The movie additionally features Randeep Hooda as Sultan’s coach, Amit Sadh as Sultan’s brother, as well as UFC competitor, Tyron Woodley and real-life grappler, Kurt Angle, as wrestlers.

The upcoming flick seems to be a heartwarming tale of how one must never give up on their dreams; Sultan has been directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and will hit cinemas this Eid.
