Mumbai:
Kabir
Khan,
who
is
the
director
of
Ek
Tha
Tiger,
says
that
Salman
Khan
is
a
legendary
actor
and
only
he
could
play
the
role
of
Tiger
so
brilliantly
in
Bollywood.
Kabir
Khan
also
said
that
Tiger
Salman
Khan
sab
ka
baap
hai
(he
is
bigger
than
anybody
else).
Talking
to
a
leading
website,
Kabir
Khan
said,
"If
you
call
any
other
guy
in
Bollywood
a
‘tiger',
it
sounds
very
cheesy.
But
with
Salman,
you
can
be
sure
that
woh
sab
ka
baap
hai
(he
is
bigger
than
anybody
else)."
Kabir
Khan
further
added,
"With
Salman
on
board,
I
didn't
have
to
spend
much
time
establishing
that
he
is
a
tiger.
Just
five
minutes
into
the
film,
and
you
will
realize
that
woh
sab
ka
baap
hai
(he
is
bigger
than
anybody
else).
A
film
like
ETT
needed
a
legendary
star
like
Salman
to
do
justice
to
the
spy
that
the
film
is
loosely
based
upon.
He
would
have
been
overcast
for
a
film
like
Kabul
Express,
but
Ek
Tha
Tiger
needed
Salman."
Well,
we
agree
Kabir
indeed
Salman
Khan
is
the
baap
of
Bollywood!
