Salman Khan, who had worked with masala director David Dhawan in the 2007 film Partner, subsequently had a fall out with Dhawan during the release of the film, following which the two were not on talking terms.
However, now that Dhawan is planning a sequel to Partner and needs Salman Khan back in the game, so to speak, it seems that the director is planning to approach Sohail Khan to mediate between the two and convince Sallu to let bygones be bygones. A source attached to the film was quoted saying that work on the sequel has already begun but as Salman has refused to work with Dhawan, the latter will take Sohail's help to broker peace between the two.
A desi remake of Will Smith starrer Hitch, the Salman-Katrina Kaif-Govinda starrer Partner was about a date guru who helps a bumbling buffoon win over the object of his affection.
