Salman Khan snaps: Hrithik can act, Shah Rukh Khan can overact

Irritated Salman Khan takes a dig at fellow actor when asked by an ad director for re-takes

If there is one actor in Bollywood who wears his heart in his sleeves, that's Salman Khan.

He is open and obvious about his emotions and believes in saying it loud.

People around him operate very cautiously because no one really knows what triggers this actor to lose his cool. And Salman has the reputation of losing it quite easily; after all he is the 'Dabangg Khan'.

Recently, Salman lost his cool once again while shooting for an ad film and gave an earful to the director of the commercial.

While ranting he targeted his archrival Shah Rukh Khan and poor Hrithik Roshan was also dragged in the conversation.

During the shoot with TV actress Aamna Sharif when Salman walks up to her, the director asked him to redo the walk. He didn't like it and in his style said, “Agar walk karana hai toh kisi model ko bula lete" (If you want someone to walk why don't you call a model).

Later, when the stunned director requested him to shoot again to get his expressions right, Salman hit back saying: "Agar acting hi karani hai toh Hrithik ko le lete aur agar over acting karani hai toh Shah Rukh ko le lete", (If you want someone to act get Hrithik and if you want someone to over act get Shah Rukh Khan) reported Mumbai Mirror. After this the actor stamped out of the sets.

It is loud and clear that Salman Khan does not believe in being politically correct.

We do not want to contradict Salman's point that Hrithik can act and that Shah Rukh does get little carried away with his script.

But we do want to know what is Salman Khan good at - talking and being politically incorrect?

If Salman cannot comply with a director's request for re-takes he can be a pain as an actor.

The crew had to manage with whatever shot they had done, whether they like it or not because the superstar Salman Khan called it a day for them.

There is no doubt he is the reigning king of Box Office but critics might not like to crown him as the reigning king of acting.

We suppose even Salman understands that. At a recent award function he told reporters, "I don’t feel I have done anything so far to deserve an award. But the day I do, let me assure you I will take home the award, no matter how much anyone else lobbies for it."

The Salman Khan-Shah Rukh Khan war doesn't show signs of dying down, and Sallu has confirmed this by taking another dig at SRK.

The two actors have been in a cold war since 2008 when they came to blows during actor Katrina Kaif’s birthday party.

Of late, it seemed as if they’d made peace when Salman praised Shah Rukh’s hard work while hosting TV reality show Bigg Boss. He also attended SRK's 'Jab Tak Hain Jaan' premiere raising several eyebrows.

But with this stinging jibe at SRK, Salman made his intentions clear of no peace deal.

    salman you're very good
  • Jerusha 17 February 2013 05:44 5 3
    Well atleast both Shahrukh and Hrithik can act...Salman just entertains... SRK doest overact...his roles are just intense so the delivery of those roles may come across like that....both hrithik and SRK are fantastic actors and as for Salman good that he's achieved great stardom. But in my opinion he just way too overated.

    Salman you're always right and its so true.
  • Jassim 8 February 2013 09:24 7 14
    Salman's acting is worst. Just luck and fan support. Hats off to Salman who acts is senseless movie that he himself agrees.
  • Nikhat 8 February 2013 08:08 4 9
    Salman khan you can dance and fight in the movie certainley can't act. It is beyond you to take classy or difficult role like our Shahrukh has done like-- My name is Khan, Sawdesh, Chak de India, Devdas. But Salman you are at least honest that director needed either Shahrukh or Hritik Roshan to do the acting.
  • Reader 8 February 2013 08:05 7 8
    Salman is great and someone just told Salman sir you are good for nothing... Salman please stop using King Name for getting into the lime light ... just chill salman, copy from south india and keep doing what ever u do on screen ur fans love that, don't comment on the person whom the WORLD LOVES .. STAY AWAY FROM HIM.

    SRK overacts a lot and Salman just remains Salman and does what is required but Hritik is someone to take his acting very seriously. I agree with Salman.
  • vidiah 7 February 2013 16:45 11 13
    i also agree with salman, you are the best
  • Rafiq 7 February 2013 11:47 17 19
    Salman can say anything! It's his problem. However, he needs 100 more years to become SRK.
  • Prakash 7 February 2013 08:41 11 12
    Haha, that's truth.
  • Astarul 7 February 2013 08:10 14 11
    I'm agree with Salman sir,
  • Geeta 6 February 2013 21:58 15 11
    Agree 100 per cent with Salman. He was speaking the truth. SRK is the biggest over-actor in the Hindi film industry today. So what's wrong with that statement?
  • Mamatha 6 February 2013 21:14 17 10
    LOL! That's my Salman! Love you hamesha!
  • sawan 6 February 2013 20:16 16 9
    Salman knows very well that his existence in Bollywood depends on carrying SRK's name with him by any means... so he wil keep on commenting - praise or hate.
  • Sanju Baba 6 February 2013 19:55 17 7
    If you want someone who won't know the abcd of acting then call Salman Khan... I think every true Indian will agree with me.
  • Dip Adhikari 6 February 2013 14:34 27 17
    I agree with Salman Khan's point of view.
  • Asha 6 February 2013 13:47 19 16
    Well. Hrithik is a fantastic actor... and Shahrukh also can act.. and Salman... pity on him... he doesn't even understand the meaning of acting... just survived because of his looks and muscle power... nothing else..
