Akshay Kumar starrer Rustom release date is August 12 and the movie is going to be a grand hit rivalling perhaps the best that the superstar has ever done. The Rustom trailer, poster and what have you have all been lapped up by the masses. But what kind of an impact did it have on the biggest star of them all, Salman Khan, who has seen Akshay emerge as the biggest threat to his rule at the top of the Bollywood charts? (Bollywood Hungama)
Salman Khan has just come off a big hit in the form of Sultan. The collections have almost reached Rs 300 cr and is likely to stay in the cinemas till he does not get entry into this exclusive club. Considering their rivalry, and the fact that they don't really hug and chat in the public, it is clear they are both wary of each other. Akshay is at the top of his game and is creating superhits at the drop of the hat. So is Salman Khan. But as far as Bhai is concerned, all of this is water of his back. (Source: Twitter) -
In a true sportsman-like spirit, Salman Khan has done himself proud by exhorting the cinema-loving public to go ahead and give Akshay Kumar starrer Rustom a 'dekko'. And, more specifically, he has directed his own fans, who number in the tens of millions, to do the same. Imagine how well a movie can do if most Salman Khan fans land up in theaters to watch! Add to that the large fan-base of Akshay Kumar, plus the general public. Rs 100 cr movie guaranteed! (Source: IE)
The big deal about this particular comment from Salman Khan is not that Rustom movie is good, which it is, the amazing thing about it is that like a true gentleman Salman Khan is also a professional and welcomes competition. After all competition is good, it allows people to think out of the box, they can then come up with thrilling new ideas and that will in turn generate even better movies for the public. So, in the end, Salman bhai is talking about providing the fans, the public at large much better fare – paisaa wasool movies! -
And in true Salman Khan fashion, the star took to Twitter and instead of just providing a quote, he actually posted a video that goes and says: "Humare film industry ke Rustom-e-Hind ki film aa rahi hai naam hai 'Rustom'. August 12 ko jaakar dekhiye Akshay Kumar ki film 'Rustom'. (The film of our film industry's Rustom-e-Hind titled 'Rustom' is releasing. Watch Akshay Kumar's 'Rustom')." Slaman even highlighted it with this caption" "10 Days To 'Rustom', Akshay Kumar."(Source: IE)
