Bollywood icons Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan share one of the industry’s most enduring off-screen friendships. Sanjay has often described Salman as his “younger brother,” a bond that has seamlessly carried over to the big screen through films such asSaajan,Chal Mere Bhai, andDus. Over the years, their mutual admiration has also resulted in special appearances in each other’s projects.
The Role Sanjay Dutt Declined
Despite their close relationship, Sanjay Dutt once chose to pass on a significant role in Salman Khan’s romantic hitPyaar Kiya To Darna Kya. According to reports, he was offered the part of Salman’s brother-in-law—a character that played a pivotal role in driving the film’s storyline.
Why He Stepped Away
Multiple reports suggest that Sanjay Dutt declined the offer as he was not inclined to take up a supporting role at that point in his career. Following his decision, Arbaaz Khan was cast in the role of Vishal Thakur, Kajol’s fiercely protective brother, bringing a strong presence to the character.

Released in 1998, the film starred Salman Khan as Suraj Khanna and Kajol as Muskaan Thakur, with Dharmendra portraying her uncle, Ajay Singh Thakur. The on-screen chemistry between Salman and Kajol received widespread praise, while Arbaaz Khan’s character arc—from adversary to ally—added emotional depth to the narrative.
Box Office Success and Recognition
The film earned seven Filmfare Award nominations, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actor. Singer Kamal Khan received accolades for the chart-topping trackO O Jaana. According to Sacnilk, the film went on to collect approximately ₹337 crore worldwide, cementing its status as a commercial and critical success.
