Much before that, this project was announced by Salman Khan as earlier he was one of the producers but he soon backed out of it. While there were no reports about why Salman made an exit from this project. But it is being reported that Karan had tricked Salman to produce this film on the same lines as the one on which Ajay Devgn had announced his next, Battle of Saragarhi. And Salman was told that Ajay has shelved the project, so that’s the reason former decided to produce this project. But apparently, when the Dabangg Khan met Ajay Devgn on the sets of Baadshaho in Jodhpur, he then came to know about the truth and thus backed out.

Later, during one of the promotions of his films, Akshay Kumar was asked about the current status of the film and if Salman is still producing it, to which he had replied, “Battle of Saragarhi is happening. Whether Salman is co-producing, it is still being figured out.”
