Khan on Bigg Boss 15 once again revealed that Sooraj Barjatya¡¯s directorial debut brought him a dearth of work. This happened after Bhagyashree came as a special guest on the show.

In an earlier interview, Salman Khan had admitted the same.
"I did not get any work for four or five months after Maine Pyar Kiya came out. I thought I would not even get any work because Bhagyashree decided that she would get married and quit films. She got married and ran away with the entire credit of the film¡¯s success. Everyone from the industry thought she was the main reason it worked and I was just there".

Since Bhagyashree was about to get married, she was not ready to do the hug scene, but then Salman convinced her and she couldn't say no.

Bhagyashree had once said, "I was just 18 years old and thought I was in love at that time and going to get married, I had never even hugged a guy till then. So, I got worried, and I started crying after hearing that I will have to hug Salman during a song sequence in Maine Pyaar Kiya. In fact, for half an hour, Salman Khan and Sooraj Sir were scratching their heads to figure out a solution because they had to showcase Suman and Prem's love in some way. After half an hour, Salman came up to me, I was teary-eyed and he innocently requested me and said, ¡®Please do it.¡¯ I couldn¡¯t say no and that¡¯s how I finally got convinced to do that hug-sequence."
Did you know there was supposed to be a kissing scene in the film as well?

She said, "I was about to get married, so I wasn¡¯t so comfortable doing a kissing scene back then. So, Sooraj sir came up with an idea of having a glass in between us and the kiss would be showcased through that. That¡¯s how they changed the sequence."
