The Dabangg Khan loves to flaunt his chiseled body on screen and Sultan required him to wear "langots", considering the fact that he plays a wrestler. Director Ali Abbas Zafar reveals that Salman was initially shy to wear a langot.

"He is a very shy guy. He is very conscious about his body. He is the poster boy for everyone in the gym. Salman Khan is the bible of body building," he added. 

When Ali narrated the story to Salman he knew in 40-50% of the film he will be seen in langot.

"He (Salman) had to wear it as it is the demand of the character. If you are a wrestler you have to wear it and get into the mud pit," he said.

"He was avoiding wearing it for the longest time. We asked the coach to tell him to wear langot... He got convinced that his guru has told him to do so," he added.

On the day of beginning the shoot, Salman was not willing to wear langot as there were 6,000 people.

"He (Salman) was feeling shy to come out. I convinced him. I told everyone on the sets to keep quiet. Then later he was feeling so hot that he liked wearing the langot," Ali said.

"It (scene) has come out well he looks good in it. His body type is of a wrestler. It's just the mental block that he had but when he saw the shot (with langot) he joked about it saying he is the first male actor to wear a bikini," he added.

Also starring Anushka Sharma in the lead, Sultan produced by Yash Raj Films releases this Eid.
