@Faridoon_S you should go for the guinness book of world records for fastest typing, I feel the keys of your phone man, thank you so much for all the wonderful updates about 'Apsara'.Thank You.
While the Dabangg role of Salman is good it cannot be compared to SRK's role in MNIK or Hrithiks role in Guzzarish. Both were difficult roles to play My choice is SRK in MNIK because its a character role.
