Salman turns down two Ravi Chopra films despite past association

Salman Khan made guest appearances in two Ravi Chopra films: Baghban (2003) and Baabul (2006). But when the maker recently approached Sallu for two of his forthcoming films, he had to return dejected.

A source in the industry says, "Chopra has been finding it very difficult to lock in the star cast for two of his upcoming films. One is Kohinoor, to be directed by his son Abhay and the other Pocket-Maar, which he plans to direct himself. The first film was offered to Salman but he didn't like the story and refused it straight up."

The source adds, "Ravi then went tou00a0 Khan with his second project and was confident that Sallu wouldn't refuse him given their past association. But the actor once again turned him down citing date problems. Ravi was shocked as the actor had taken time out for Ravi's earlier films even though he had been busy. In the past, Salman not only acted in his films, but also refused to charge him a single penny."

The reason Salman refused Pocket-Maar is because he knows that the film was offered to Neil Nitin Mukesh and then to Shahid Kapoor before it came to him. Chopra remained unavailable for comment.
