Actor Nikitin Dheer who is known for playing the antagonist in several big Bollywood films has shared screen space with megastars such as Shah Rukh Khan in Chennai Express, Salman Khan in Dabangg 2, Akshay Kumar in Housefull 3 and Sooryavanshi.
The actor recently revealed the difference between SRK and Salman. He said, “Shah sir is mind-blowing in action. His action-reaction, I think, is the best. I remember how he has this one pattern of falling because he used to play football and all, so he falls straight on the ground and just before hitting the ground he’ll put his hand down. He is outstanding.”
Talking about Salman, he said, “With Salman bhai, a lot of things that happen are very instinctive. So many times he and I have had action scenes together. I remember so many times the action master would say you won’t be able to do it this way, and I’d go up to Salman sir and say ‘Aise hona chaahiye (it should be like this) because when you hit me this way, it’ll look great!’ He is so magnanimous, he’s say, ‘Kar na, tu maar (You do it, hit me).’ So, their approaches are slightly different.”
Highlighting the difference, Nikitin revealed, “I think when you are doing scenes with Shah sir, he loves to rehearse, so he goes with that. With Salman bhai it is about the flow, ‘Kya nikalta hai (what comes out of it)…. That is the basic difference between the both.”
