Salman Khan:Sikandar may have failed to impress at the box office, but the film continues to make headlines with debates surrounding the superstar’s work ethic. After director AR Murugadoss was reportedly blamed Salman: for a bad performance in the film and said the actor was late to the set, actor: Vindu Dara Singh came out in support of the Bollywood star.
Vindu rubbished the claims about Salman arriving late to the set
In a recent interview with Kadak, Vindu, who has shared screen space with Salman in several films, strongly refuted the claims that the actor was always late.“Maine Salman ke saath 5-6 pictures ki hai. He is very clear that I am not 10 baje bulaya hai, he is there at that time. Agar unki need 7 baje hai to wo 7 baje aayga, if not 9-10 baje jo time director bolega uss time aata hai. Ye galat baat hai ki Salman late aata hai,” said Vindu.Translated, the actor stated that Salman is very particular about reporting to work on time and coming as per the schedule set by the director. He maintains that Salman’s perception of always being late is incorrect.Vindu further argued that Salman usually only works in one shift, leaving little room for scheduling conflicts.The actor noted that since Salman has dedicated himself to a shift, questions about him arriving late to a set did not arise in the manner suggested.
Vindu recalls talking to Salman after Sikandar’s failure
During the interview, Vindu also opened up about a conversation he had with Salman after Sikandar’s disappointing box-office performance.“Main poocha ye kya ho gaya. Unhone bola Ye (AR Murugadoss) bhi fail ho gaya. Dekh le, jab picture nhi chalti hai to aise blame krte hai,” he recalled.According to Vindhu, Salman suggested that when a film fails to perform as expected, the blame is always shifted to those involved in the project.
“Salman is a very sensitive person”
Concluding his remarks, Vindu described Salman as a person who is very emotional even if he doesn’t often show it in public.“Salman bahut hi sensitive aadmi hai. He might not show it, but jo yaad rakhta hai wo sensitive bhi hoga,” he said.The actor added that Salman’s ability to remember and stay connected with people shows a sensitive side of his personality that is not readily apparent to many.
