Salman Khan, the Dabangg actor of Bollywood, but do you know that a newcomer hits 25 punches to him during the shoot of film ‘Ek Tha Tiger’.
Yes, this is true, a new comer from Punjab, Gavie Chahal, who got a chance to work with Salman Khan in Ek Tha Tiger, hits 25 punches to Salman in the film.
Talking to media, Gavie Chehal said, “There was a fight scene in the movie where I had to punch him (Salman) in the ribs. I was hesitating but he really encouraged me and made me practice. There were at least 25 punches before the take. He was very helpful. He guided me about my future as well. I am so happy to work with him.”
Earlier, Gavie Chahal worked in number of Punjabi films as well as some popular TV show like “Mohe Rang De” and “Mrs. Kaushik Ki Paanch Bahuein”.
“I think I am lucky. I couldn’t have had a better debut. I am with the No.1 director (Kabir Khan) and the No.1 cast (Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif) of Bollywood. The combination is perfect for anyone,” said Chahal.
He said, “It was a great experience. Mr. Kabir never made me feel inferior to anyone on the set. I was also treated as a star. There was never a time when I was not treated well. He treated everyone as an actor.”
He worked in Punjabi films like “Yaaran Naal Baharan” and “Mehndi Wale Hath”, but said that Bollywood is his first choice.
He said, “It’s obvious that I will give preference to Bollywood if I ever have an issue with dates. But I will never say no to Punjabi films or even television. First preference is Hindi cinema and then my television shows and Punjabi films.”
