During the 1990s, Pooja Bhatt was set to collaborate with Salman Khan in a movie titled 'Ram.' What makes this even more interesting is that the film was not directed by her father, Mahesh Bhatt, but by Salman's younger brother, Sohail Khan. Reports suggest that Salman and Sohail's father, Salim Khan, initially opposed the pairing of Salman and Pooja in the film. It is believed that Salim Khan disapproved of the idea due to Pooja's bold and controversial public image. Consequently, he was hesitant to allow his son Salman to work alongside her. However, Salman successfully persuaded his father, leading to his involvement in the project.
According to media reports, a captivating love story unfolded between Pooja and Sohail during the filming of 'Ram.' However, when Salim Khan discovered their affair, he was filled with anger. Despite Salman Khan's sincere attempts to persuade his father, Salim Khan remained unwilling to accept their relationship. The growing resentment from Salim Khan eventually caused a rift between Sohail and Pooja, leading to their separation. While official statements attribute the shelving of Pooja Bhatt and Salman Khan's film 'Ram' to budgetary reasons, it is also speculated that the strained relationship between Sohail and Pooja played a part in halting the production.
