A project that reunites Salman and Sanjay is still highly anticipated by fans. In the past both worked together in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam(1999) and Saawariya(2007). The filmmaker shared his desire to work again with Salman Khan. Last year, he told Bollywood Hungama that “My utmost regard and respect for the person who did Khamoshi for me, who did Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam for me, and who stood by me during Sawariyaa. He has been an important part of who I am today and I will always respect him for it. The ball is in his court for him to decide if he wants to work with me.”
