Sultan won't be shot in Punjab to avoid location clash with Dangal

The production team of Yash Raj visited various villages in Punjab near Ludhiana and decided to scrap the shooting schedule for Salman Khan's 'Sultan' in Punjab.

According to the sources the production team confirmed  that the shooting schedule in Punjab is cancelled as of now and the reason for the same is the clash of locations with Aamir Khan's 'Dangal' whose shooting is currently ongoing in Ludhiana outskirts.

Recently, the makers of  'Sultan' had visited various villages including Gujjarwal where Aamir Khan is shooting for 'Dangal' and had even booked an entire floor in high end hotel of city for arrival of Salman Khan by November end. However, now the entire shooting schedule has been shifted to Haryana, Mumbai and some areas near Delhi and Salman Khan would be staying in the capital only.

The schedule for Punjab has been scrapped because locations were more or less getting similar to what Dangal team is using and since both movies are related to wrestling, it was inappropriate to shoot for Sultan in Punjab especially Ludhiana villages.

While, Aamir Khan's 'Dangal' is based on the real life story of Haryana based wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat and for the shoot, villages in Ludhiana including Gujjarwal, Kila Raipur, Narangwal, Dango and Leel have been given a complete Haryanvi makeover.

But, 'Sultan' is a romantic film, about sports and a man fighting to win back his life back again.
