Salman Khan and Anushka Sharma starrer, Sultan is a sports-drama which revolves around Sultan Ali Khan’s personal and professional life.
The 50 year old will play the role of Sultan Ali Khan, a wrestler. each plot point competing for screen time in this overlong saga, what could have been a tightly-wound fighting picture somehow takes almost three hours to unfurl, and neither the romance nor the wrestling angle can sustain its appeal to the end.
Ultimately, we’re given too much extra padding for “Sultan” to pack a truly tight punch, but it’s safe to say that probably doesn’t matter—it is a Khan film, after all, where the regular rules don’t apply. His fans will make sure it’s a knockout at the box office anyway. I love this.
