He said that most of the fights in the film are real, shot without cables and with real wrestlers.
"When Ali narrated the story to me, I thought I'll be able to do it. But then while shooting, I noticed that there were real wrestlers opposite me and not fighters. Most of the shots in the film are real with wrestlers and Mixed Martial Arts. There are no cables and because of them, there is lot of contact happening in the film. When they lift you and put you on the ground, it used to hurt. They were of 120-130 kilos," Salman said at the trailer launch of
"They expect you to pick them up and throw them down. That was the most difficult part. When a wrestler trains you, he trains for two or three hours and then two or three hours again in the evening. After that, training for MMA and shooting every day non-stop for six or seven hours, fighting non-stop was really difficult. So those six hours amidst lights and training used to take a toll on me," he added.

When asked if his role is inspired from a real-life character, Khan was quick to reply.
"No, it's not from anywhere. This is from his (Ali Abbas Zafar) mind. It is the story of an underdog," he said.
Sultan will release on Eid.
