  However,Lawrence D'Souza said that his first choices where Salman Khan, Aamir Khan and Madhuri Dixit.Sanjay Dutt was not first choice for the role.Interestingly Lawrence D's Souza had earlier approached Aamir Khan for the role.Infact Aamir Khan shooted for some days for the Saajan but later he opted out of the film as he feels his character was no heroic compared to Salman (Aakash) and Salman Khan's character was having more screen-time and songs compared to his role.  Dutt wasn’t hesitant to accept the film despite his character being lame and not heroic. “At that time, he had 2-3 hit action films.

It was an extravagant gamble for a first time producer because war movies in our country are rare. But, always stubborn and uncompromising when it came to box-office dos and don’t, JP went ahead and even paid to see his dream on screen.
