바카라˜Biwi No. 1바카라™, starring Salman Khan, Karisma Kapoor and Sushmita Sen in the lead with Anil Kapoor and Tabu in supporting roles, completed 25 years on Wednesday, May 29. However, actor Govinda was reportedly the first choice for the film. As per a report in DNA, not Salman, but Govinda was the first choice for the David Dhawan film. But the film went to Salman after Govinda refused to work with Sushmita. 

As per the report, David Dhawan wanted to get Govinda in the character of a cheating husband. While he had agreed to star in it, he did not want to star opposite Sushmita Sen. Another report in The Indian Express claims that Govinda allegedly insisted Sushmita be removed from the film. But when the makers refused to do so, Govinda ended up leaving the film. He then reportedly returned the signing amount and mentioned that he had already done two films with a role of a cheating husband, and didn바카라™t want to do another similar character. 

Govinda and Sushmita worked together in 바카라˜Kyo Kii바카라¦ Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta바카라™ (2001).

Meanwhile, Sushmita and Salman바카라™s chemistry was loved by one and all, and talking about it, the actress had told Indian Express, 바카라œHaye mera bachcha wasn바카라™t in the script. I thought the scene was over and I just hugged Salman, saying 바카라˜haye mera bachcha.바카라™ The camera was still rolling, and David kept it! So, it바카라™s actually my own lingo.바카라

Interestingly, it is also claimed that Karisma wasn바카라™t the first choice for the role of the 바카라˜Biwi No. 1바카라™, and the makers wanted to have 바카라˜Heeramandi바카라™ star Manisha Koirala in the film. Also, Anil바카라™s role was originally going to be offered to Sanjay Dutt.
