I am a 'Tiger' says Salman Khan

Mumbai: Salman Khan, who is all set to burn the screen with his upcoming film Ek Tha Tiger, says that it is tiring to shoot action sequences but at the same time, he says that he is a Tiger and he can't give excuses.

When a leading daily asked Salman Khan, was he unsure of doing action sequences because of his jaw pain, Salman Khan said, "I am 'Tiger', I don't have an excuse."

Salman Khan further added, "A film like this (Ek Tha Tiger) takes a toll because you are running from morning to evening; you are falling and getting hurt in cold weather. Sometimes, a scene needs 12 retakes and rehearsals in a day, so it is tiring."

Talking about action scenes Salman Khan said, "There is a lot of pain and difficulty that an actor faces while doing action scenes. Like doing action in worst conditions - in very hot or cold weather, wake up at wrong hours, fight in dirty places, sometimes in water, sometimes in the sun."

Directed by Kabir Khan, Ek Tha Tiger is all set to hit the screens on 15 August.
