Salman is a water baby to shoot an underwater sequence for Tubelight!


While it has been a wrap for Salman Khan’s Tubelight, the actor lately shot an underwater sequence for the movie. And though it was his first such experience, Salman surprised all with his swimming skills.

Seemingly, the 51-year-old had no trouble filming the scene and shot it like a pro along with brother Sohail Khan. 

A famous tabloid quoted a source as telling, “Before an underwater shoot, all actors are trained so that they are comfortable in the water wearing scuba or diving gear. In Salman’s case, there was no diving gear required, as he is a great swimmer.”

Anees Adenwala who owns a specialized underwater filming unit, Underwater Film services, had trained Salman for the sequence and was all praises for him. 

Speaking about his experience of working with the actor, Anees told, “We were to do an underwater shoot for a sequence in the film. For shooting the underwater parts though I chatted with him to make him understand how to sustain the breathing and manage the buoyancy-two imperative elements of underwater shoots. The pool was cold and we took some laps to warm up. Salman is a water baby. Many actors have troubles getting comfortable in the water, but not him. It was a pleasure working with Salman.”


Directed by Kabir Khan, Tubelight is a historical war drama and also stars Chinese actress Zhu Zhu.
