After Priyanka exited ‘Bharat’, Salman's statements indicated that Priyanka had hit a nerve. Salman said: "Whatever may be the reason - be it marriage or picture or her not being willing to work in India or with me, it's her reason and we are really supportive about her doing good work. If she does not want to work with Salman Khan, it's okay; she's working with a big hero in Hollywood".


In order to work with Salman, Kaif even walked out of her dance flick opposite Varun Dhawan. ‘Bharat’ directed by Ali Abbas Zafar will hit the theatres on Eid 2019.
