Salman further added, “He’s a much better character on his own. If we had incorporated romance and songs, then the character would have got diluted.”
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, the romantic angle scenes were shot with actress Pragya Jaiswal. Their source close to the development revealed, “That actress was Pragya Jaiswal. It was a lovely track between her and Salman. The superstar and Mahesh Manjrekar were quite happy with Pragya’s portions. However, in the larger interest of the film, the makers decided to chop off these portions.”
Director Mahesh Manjrekar had also previously mentioned that it was Salman Khan’s call to cut out these romantic scenes and songs. The makers were reportedly quite responsible about the matter and informed Pragya Jaiswal about their decision to take out the pre-shot parts. The actor was very understanding about their point of view and even wished them luck on their project.
