Together, Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya have appeared in a number of movies, including Hum Aapke Hain Koun and Hum Saath Saahi. Prem Ratan Dhan Payo was their most recent movie together. Many people even think that Salman’s screen name, Prem, has been a lucky charm for Sooraj Barjatya throughout all of his films. In contrast, Sooraj passed on Uunchai.

Sooraj confessed that he wanted a different cast for Uunchai and had to refuse Salman’s request during the film’s trailer premiere event. He was quoted saying, “Like I said, ismein maine sab bandhan tod diye. Ek charm tha Prem rakho toh chal jaye, but ismein sab bandhan tod diye maine (As I have mentioned, I have broken all barriers for this film. I had Prem as my lucky charm but not this time).”
