ArrayMumbai, Dec 23 (IANS) Popular Bollywood celebrities like Salman Khan, Juhi Chawla and Sonakshi Sinha have lauded superstar Aamir Khan’s latest sports-drama “Dangal” calling it a “superlative” and “perfect” film.
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, “Dangal”, which released on Friday, is based on a true story and chronicles the empowering journey of a father who trains his daughters in wrestling.
