Salman and Sonakshi's camaraderie reportedly ran into rough waters when the Tevar actor turned down Arbaaz Khan's production Dolly Ki Doli which was initially offered to her. Though Sonam Kapoor went on to do the role, that Sonakshi rejected the film did not go down well with bhai.
The Dabangg actors also had a tiff in November 2014 when Sonakshi attended Salman's sister Arpita's wedding. The fight ended with the Tevar actor breaking down. Since then, they have not been on good terms.
A source close to Salman khan said, "He is not keen on working with Sonakshi. So, the producers are looking out for another actress. Nobody has been finalised yet."
Sonakshi Sinha made her debut in 2010's Dabangg opposite Salman Khan. The film grossed over Rs. 200 crore at the box office and instantly launched Sonakshi to stardom. She reprised her role as Rajjo in the sequel which went on to earn even more than the first film.
The Rajjo character is a loved role fom the series and if Sonakshi doesn't reprise it, fans will surely be disappointed.
Meanwhile, Salman Khan's Sultan is rulling the box office. The Ali Abbas Zafar directorial co-starring Anushka Sharma grossed Rs. 36.54 crore on opening day (July 6), thereby becoming the highest opening day grosser of 2016.
