Ajay Devgn: Salman Khan is not making ‘Battle of Saragarhi’

Salman Khan in collaboration with Karan Johar was all set to produce a film starring Akshay Kumar. The three took to the social media to announce the project and the audience too was excited about Salman, Karan and Akshay joining hands. However, the film they collaborated on was based on the 'Battle of Saragarhi', a subject that Ajay Devgn had earlier announce that he will be making a film on.

While Salman didn't know about Ajay's plans of making a film on 'Battle of Saragarhi', as soon as the actor was informed, he opted out of the project. There were rumours about a fallout between Salman and Ajay over the same, however, refuting the possibility of a tiff, Salman quietly stepped out of the project so that he doesn't get caught between Ajay and Karan.

While Ajay and Karan during the 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' and 'Shivaay' clash went through quite a public mudslinging, the is no change in the hostilities of the two. And so, in a recent interview when Ajay was asked about the film, the actor informed that Salman is not a part of the project. Further, the actor also added that he is no problem with Akshay and Karan making a film and releasing it before he does.

Ajay said, "Salman Khan is not making 'Battle of Saragarhi'. I am not too sure if somebody else is making it or not. I am making the film for sure, but I will take some time. I have always maintained that the film will be made on a very big scale and I will need, at least, two years’ time for that film. If anyone wants to make it, they can make it and release it as well. I will release my film after them, but I am making the film for sure."
