Jerry Maguire remake with Salman, SRK off
Salman and Shah Rukh Khan were to star in the remake of Tom Cruise starrer Jerry Maguire. The film has now been called off because of their infamous fight and the standoff that still continues.
Our source tells us, "News of the pair starring in the remake broke out in early 2008. Salman's brother Sohail wanted to remake the iconic film with the two Khans and had the script ready as well. Salman would play a larger than life and whacky sportsman filling in Cuba Gooding Jr's shoes whereas SRK would fill in Tom Cruise's shoes as an ambitious sports agent. No actress had been cast to play Cruise's love interest, Dorothy's role. SRK was busy with Rab Ne and Salman was busy with Main aur Mrs Khanna, Hello and a couple of other films in mid 2008. The duo had an infamous fight on Katrina Kaif's birthday in July and has not been on talking terms since. So, obviously plans of the remake have been canned."
Sohail Khan's spokesperson tells us, "He never wanted to make a film with both of them aur abhi toh dono ke saath film nahi ban sakti. As of now, Sohail is busy with his own productions like Kissan, Main aur Mrs. Khanna and a couple of others."
Salman and SRK have shared screen space in blockbusters like Karan Arjun and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. They were also there in Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam with Madhuri Dixit. The duo had a fight on the sets of Chalte Chalte in 2002 when Salman barged in to meet Aishwarya Rai who was co-starring with SRK in the film. As a result of this, SRK replaced Ash with Rani Mukherji. The duo made up during Farha Khan's sangeet in 2004. All was well with them till they fought on Katrina Kaif's birthday party in July 2008. It seems Salman had approached SRK for an item song in Main aur Mrs Khanna but the latter refused, then the two argued who was the bigger star and SRK made an unpleasant remark about Aishwarya Rai which didn't go down well with Salman.
