He said he had no work for about four to six months.
His co-star Bhagyashree decided to stop acting and get married.

His father, Salim Khan, wanted to help him.
He asked filmmaker G.P. Sippy to announce that Salman had been signed for a film.
The announcement was printed in a trade guide or magazine.
Salman later said this helped show the industry that he was still getting work.
