Few months back, when the first images of ‘Veer’ were released to press, it swept everyone off the ground with its element of surprise – looks. The ‘warrior-look’ and the skin color fetched Salman the kind of publicity he must have wanted – after Yuvraaj doomed at the box-office – but at the same time other stories popped up as a tad that ‘Veer’ is an inspiration of Salman’s flopped work [Veergati-1995] of his pink days.

But recently the story was proven wrong when sources claimed that ‘Veer’ is actually based on a Russian literary masterpiece ‘Taras Bulba’ written by Nikolai Gogol.

It’s a narration of Cossack patriarch Taras and his two warrior sons, who go on to an epic journey that ends in a battle with Polish.

How Salman fairs as one of the Taras sons is yet-to-be-seen, but images coming from the sets of ‘Veer’ are creating a lot of premonitions.

Will he be able to prove critics wrong? Is he still his ‘Mr. Most Bankable’ self? Or showbiz’s [Bollywood] controversy child will be lost in the battlefields of Veer, remains to be seen!!!

Let’s hope its other way round…

After watching Aamir Khan’s Ghajini, everyone started biting their nails in anxiety, he was the next  Khan who force a new image of his abs to the conscience of the Bollywood film lovers. But, he won’t be able to rejoice his new found ab-liciousness for long as Salman Khan once again will sweep everyone – females, from their feet with his toned body. It was Salman who began the show of male stripping on the silver screen. He must have taken some  lessons to make it look better from his earlier ‘Avatar’ – stripping in every dance sequence. The formal shirt stripping would be changed into a warrior’s armored get-up in his forthcoming ‘Veer’.

The film has many other reasons to surprise you, the story of ‘Veer’ is written by Salman himself (directed by Anil Sharma), secondly he has a bronzed look for the film and thirdly he is flaunting unusually long hair and the film is said to be one of the costliest films of the bollywood.

For  long  Salman unarguably had the best male body in the film industry, but lately the competition of the perfect body has come up from all corners. Be it Shahrukh Khan’s six pack Abs, Hrithik Roshan, John Abraham, Akshay Kumar’s athletic built and recently Aamir Khan’s eight pack abs for Ghajini  has started questioning Salman’s well preserved physique.

But, we all know Salman has a tendency to fight for the top slot and ‘Veer’ is an attempt to fortify his position as beholder of the best male body in Bollywood. So get ready to face the ‘Veer-ocious’ Salman Khan.
