Indians don’t need superheroes, says Salman Khan


Mumbai: Bollywood actor Salman Khan talks about kids, love and almost being a superhero…

Spiderman, Batman, Salman?

“It is a nice thought, but I hope this doesn’t make me into a caricature. We don’t need a mosquito to bite us or wear our underwear outside, we Indians don’t need superheroes. In our culture, no one wants to see failure. Kids are crazy about my films because I’m now doing films that I would see in my childhood. If I’m enjoying it then I’m sure kids will also be enjoying it.”

A child at heart
Indians don’t need superheroes, says Salman Khan

“I should have got Sajid-Wajid with me, they would have played for these kids and things would have gone to a new level altogether, but their father is not keeping well so they could not make it. I’m hoping I can use the talent of these kids at some gig in the future.”

Bhai talk

“When I was promoting ‘Tere Naam’, I was telling people to see the film but never to follow the role. The character is a loser. A girl leaves him and he keeps on crying… move on, there are other girls. I don’t take terms like bhai too seriously. If you start thinking about it, it doesn’t look natural. I say go with the flow. Abhi achcha time hai, but the worst thing about good time is also that it doesn’t last forever (laughs). Actually I have had quite a long run.”

    Just look at this idiot. He has started comparing himself and his movies to world-class Batman, Spiderman, Iron Man, Hulk, Superman and X-men. He thinks we need stupid movies like bg/ready/wanted/dabangg.

    Now i am sure this guy does not think before blabbering :P

      Wiz.poka, though you have commented in SMS language. I would just like to ask for an apology if you have been hurt by any of my comments. To be honest I put a lot of thought before commenting on any post. If you still think I am wrong, I would contemplate a bit longer.

      BTW you’ve also hurt my sentiments with your post :(

      How do you know Salman Khan is older than me? Anyways this is the Nth apology i am asking from you if you have been hurt by anything I said to salman. I have tried to correct my mistake above by replacing the term “idiot”.

    Sumtimes I think he goes overboard by saying such things, everyone loves superheroes.
    But we need our own superheroes who are really charismatic like Batman,Ironman,Spiderman but not craps like G.one (not worthy of calling a superhero as he was just a game character way weaker than villain).
    Shaktiman was great but very weak on VFX.
    But we have villain characters equal or better than hollywood ones like Don (SRK’s one was way better, sole reason being a classy movie like Don2). And dont know how Mr. Amir khan gonna do a villain Dhoom 3, but no way he can even match hritik (dhoom 2) or SRK.
    He was a very bad choice IMO.

      @awesomeakshay: so when did you watch sher khan? We can see your intention behind your comment…even the first look of sher khan is not shown and you say it is a bad superhero..
      And is there another bollywood film called “VEER”? As far as salman veer’s is concerned it was not a superhero film…If it was in your opinion, then why didn’t you include the films like Blue and Chadni Chock to China?

    Well whats wrong if says we dnt need superheroes?

    Our heroes are nothing less than superheroes. Why do we have to APE what westerners do??

    Only because they make superhero movies, we should also do it??
    C’mon … what kind of logic is that?

    –> I see usual suspects RANTing here. They have nothing to offer but their sadistic comments about Salman.

    “Kids just adore salman khan”
    well said rockie bro…my uncle has a little son named ansh and his idol is salman khan. He used to say “dont fight with me i am salman khan”…so whenever he cries then we say “salman khan kabhi rota nahi hai” aur woh rona band kar deta hai.

    The One thing that Danish has achieved in NG what no one did is he makes everyone on NG talk about Salman Khan whether in ‘bravado’ or ‘insolency’.

    Also most people are aware of Salman’s hit as well as flop films rather than their own fav’s.
