The film's producer Subhash Ghai (below) clarified the same by saying, "Yes, we did approach him but after reading the script, he informed us that he was playing a lawyer's role in another film that he had already committed to. So we mutually agreed not to cast him in this film though I would have loved to have worked with him." u00a0
