According to Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan is responsible for his changed voice!

The Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is as entertaining off-screen as he is on the screens. The actor was attending the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit on Thursday, where his voice sounded really heavy.

So explaining himself, he said at the event, “I usually never speak like this. My voice is not like this. It’s just that over the last few days I have become a big fan of Mr Bachchan (Amitabh Bachchan). I can’t grow as tall as him now. So I just thought that perhaps I should try and speak like him.”

Obviously it was a joke and the actor himself laughed at it. He has been suffering from throat infection for the last days. We had seen it at IFFI 2017, when the actor was trolled by the Tubelight kid Matin Rey Tangu. Read here: Adorable Matin Rey Tangu Trolls Salman Khan at IFFI 2017 Closing Ceremony

Salman Khan is next going to appear in the action-drama film Tiger Zinda Hai. The film stars Katrina Kaif as the female lead, and is the sequel to the 2012 release Ek Tha Tiger. Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, Ek Tha Tiger is slated to release on December 22, this year.

The actor is also a part of the third installment of the Race Franchise. Race 3 also stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Bobby Deol, Saqib Saleem and Daisy Shah. Recently, the entire team of the film had appeared on Salman’s show Bigg Boss 11 to create a buzz for the film.
