'This is my film and not David Dhawan's'

Bhansali blows up leaving poor Salman shell shocked on the sets of 'Saawariya

SANJAY LEELA Bhansali insulted his film 'Saawariya's' actor Salman Khan and also director David Dhawan when he was shooting with the former for his film.

It is a known fact that Salman Khan has a tendency, like many top stars, to give suggestions to filmmakers about how to do a particular scene. While 'Jaan-e-Mann' director Shirish Kunder had no option but to accept all such suggestions given by Salman for his film, David Dhawan too has often complied with Salman's requests and suggestions and added or modified certain scenes in their fun capers.

But when Salman tried his luck with the man with whom he has worked before in 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam', he got the shock of his life. Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who is involved in every aspect of his film, including the making of the music ('Mashaallah' in 'Saawariya') himself, refused to accept Salman's involvement and gave it back to the star.

"Yes, Sanjay was angry when I went overboard with my suggestions. I tend to do that at times," admits Salman. But Sanjay didn't stop at that. "While he is sometimes open to suggestions and welcomes ideas, this time he told me that 'this is my film it is not David Dhawan's film'. But then, Sanjay is correct, he knows what he is doing in his films. I guess I was wrong," says Salman.
